You need to use Microsoft Management Console to import the certificate into "Computer" certificate storage (it's MY logical storage, Registry\HKLM "physical" storage). Then you can select the certificate from storage in IIS.

What is difference between server o.s. desktop o.s. and network o.s. ( operating system) Please explain in detail?
|
|
|
|
|
They really differ in use. Many operating systems come in several flavors because of this, e.g. Windows, Linux, etc.
A Desktop OS targets an end-user, and is [usually] optimized for Graphical Interfaces, Media, et al., while not needing robust features required or needed by Server OSs.
Server OSs are meant to be used by multiple users and as such are optimized for background processing, application/file sharing, print services, databases, internet and network services, fault tolerance, etc.
Network OSs are meant to be used by clients (such as a Terminal Server Client for Windows or VNC or an X-Windows client in the case of Unix.) Applications and ilk run on the Network OS across the wire, the client just sees a representation of it on their "terminal." The client is usually the only software running on the local machine when using a Network OS -- and may be a very stripped down OS whose sole purpose is to be a "terminal" to a Network OS.

I'm going to resolve my server problem by adding a new drive as C: and re-installing Win2K Server on it. I can then recover anything I need from the existing drives at my leisure, after I have a clean, stable server configured. The question is, since I'll be installing the new drive on IDE 0 as master, when I move one of the existing drives to IDE 1 (where the CD-RW currently resides alone) should it be master, or slave? If this was a simple CD-ROM drive, I'd make it a slave, but I'm concerned about problems writing CDs if the CD-RW drive is not the bus master. Any thoughts?
Some people think of it as a six-pack; I consider it more of a support group.

I don't think it would matter, I'm running my CD-RW slave to my DVD-RW and it works fine. I don't think the master/slave issue is really as pertinent as in the past which is why SATA doesn't have it.

Hello,
Is there any way to programatically restore a foreign application from the system tray? (the same as, in most cases, double clicking the tray icon)
All I have found are ways to maximize/minimize windows that are already running out of the tray...
Thanks for any help!

Hey everyone,
Well I am fairly new to linux and I have been messing around with Red Hat. I have been looking for information on the web but just cant seem to find it. I am trying to access data on my windows XP partition while I am in Linux. I see online you are able to do this with FAT32 but not NTFS. Is there anyway to access my NTFS data from within Linux without recompiling the kernal? Thanks for all of your help! 
There are 10 kinds of people in this world. Those who understand binary and those who don't.

|
|
|
|
|
As for the reason why this is made so difficult: specifics of VFAT and MSDOS are fairly well known to all. NTFS is less known because Microsoft is keeping this information a bit secret  .
Oh, make sure you download the correct rpm for your distro, maybe you have redhat 8 instead of 9 (link on first comment).
more distro's[^]
there's more to the picture than meets the eye...

Is there an way to change the behaviour of 'maximize' function for application windows?
In the past with small screens of 14", it made sense that maximise would make the application window expand to fill the screen. However, with wide screens, especially with the wide screen format of laptops, I would like the maximise function to expand the vertical size but keep the existing horizontal width of the application window.
Some time ago I saw this functionality on Unix systems that used large screens and have since missed it with Windows. Now that I have a wide-screen laptop, I miss it even more. Without it I am constantly resizing windows and instead of using the 'maximise' shortcut. It is easier to use to the 'maximize' shortcut.

I have a device that is that acts as Multiport Communications Port.
Windows XP does not remember the Multiport Communications Port. With Windows 2000, you will only have to go through the process of setting up the device as a Multiport Communications Port once. After that, you can take out the device and put it back in any time and it will remember to recognize the device as a Multiport Communications Port with the same settings. In Windows XP, you will have to install and setup the Multiport Communications Port every time you connect the device to the laptop. 
This also includes every time the machine boots up with the card connected.
Not only that, but Windows XP will also use a different COM port every time you install it because it thinks the previous COM port it was using is still in use.  You can manually change the COM port back to its previous value in the Multiport Communications Port Properties.
How to work around this? Anybody knows?

Can anyone help us with this? We're trying to install SQL Server 2000 on a Windows 2003 Server. MSDN says we should be able to complete the install and then update to SP3. When we launch the installer and tell it that we know it's not supported but go ahead anyway, the installer goes away and never comes back. The process remains alive with no activity, but doesn't install or give any additional messages. We can't get an installer CD with SP3 already applied, of course, so we're unable to get the SQL Server installed.
Has anyone seen this? Solved it? Have some consoling words of wisdom?
Thanks - any help is really appreciated!

Hi, i use to face this problem before. try to check the solution in microsoft knowledge base www.microsoft.com/support.
as far as i remember the article in knowledge base state that you need to install windows xp first and install sql server with its service pack. test it if it working properly then upgrade your windows xp to windows server 2003. then everything is working fine. try it and hope it work.

Thanks - we checked the MS KB's but it says we should be able to do the install on a fresh Win2003 server. We can't deinstall the server and install XP to try this - the server's already up and running.
We're faced with how to get SQL Server 2000 on a running Win 2003 Server.....

Since I've installed visio 2003 on my machine ( the tech guy did ), my system is behaving weird, mostly the language selector is acting up, there seems to be 2 of them, one that looks xp-ish, and the other one looks w2k-ish (!); and the "selector" does not show up when clicked on it to change language ( keyboard layout ).
On top of that , outlook misbehaving ...
Is it possible that it was a bad idea to mix'n'match Visio (from office 2003) and the current Office 2000 ?
Thanks ...
Max.

Hi,
I have the following lines in my .js file.
var WshShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell");
var WshEnv = WshShell.Environment("PROCESS");
WshShell.Run (exe1, 1, 1);
WshShell.Run (exe2, 1, 1);
WshShell.Run (exe3, 1, 1);
WshShell.Run (exe4, 1, 1);
So, for the 4 executables I invoke, the system executes them on 4 different shells I believe, because I see 4 different blank command prompt screens poping up.
My question is can I have all the executables, executed in a single command prompt screen. So I want to see a single command prompt window, how do I do this?
Thanks,
Prashant

Hi,
I'm not sure if this is the right board, so please excuse if not.
I want to have an application started on the ppc just when the ppc is docked to the cradle so just in time with activesync.
I googled a lot, searched and examined the registry but nothing helpful found 
Maybe someone here has the right idea?
The background is that I still need activesync to sync my mail, calendar, ... but I have another application which synchronizes database data.
Is that possible (and how)?
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
I'm running a MS home network and ned to use xcopy to automate a few backup procedures.
The problem is I live in Portugal and the date format used in most computers here is dd-mm-yy: I want to backup files to a low-end pc that works as a backup server, but because its BIOS is so old it won't give me the option to set the date format to other than mm-dd-yy (the default in the US, I guess). This confuses xcopy that mistakenly reports files modified on the same date as having different dates, when using the /d option (only copy newer versions of the file).
Resetting the date format in the newer computers on the network is out of the question, but if I could get my hands on the xcopy (or a xcopy-like) source code I'm sure I could tweak it (in C++) to recognize both date formats...
Any help is appreciated!;P
PS: Strangely, the windows explorer does not misinterpret the date formats when browsing the backup server...

Firstly, the BIOS has nothing to do with date formats. The date is just a number, and will be interpreted by the OS, not the BIOS.
In Windows, you can alter the date format using control panel settings, although it doesn't sound like you need to, since Explorer gives you 'expected' results.
Do you have different system default settings, I wonder? In Win2K and XP, I think you can set the system locale (as well as the user locale) to be non-US, which may then affect the behaviour of XCOPY.
However, I'd guess that XCOPY always uses M-D-Y format for /D:date, as I'm in the UK, and we would use D-M-Y for preference, but it doesn't. Having said that, US English and UK English are almost the same in other respects, so maybe that's wrong.

Thanks Steve S for your swift reply!
Well.. I guess you're right. I tried and managed to get the old PC to show up the dates with the right format (using DOS' COUNTRY.SYS) but the problem persists. I checked the very old DOS help command and it says XCOPY uses the date format defined by COUTRY.SYS, but since I'm running the version from one of the newer machines I guess it no longer applies.
I ran a small test on a set of 27 files randomly taken (well.. the shortest in size) from the My Documents folder. I copied them to c:\test and then to \\backupserver\c\test
I then used the dir command on both directories and the result (shown below) was the same, the only difference being the bytes free information.

I ran the dir command directly from the server (Win 95) and the differences were the year format (DD-MM-YY instead of DD-MM-YYYY - could it be some kind of Y2K bug?) and two extra columns containing the DOS name and the extension.
These are the files that xcopy would have copied with the /D /Y /L parameters (copy only newer files, overwrite without asking and list only the files without copying them):

Why these files?? It has apparently nothing to do with dates or times or even 8.3 names vs long names... At least it's always the same 12 files! Any help would be very appreciated!

I'm still having the same problem with my Automatic Update system in WinXP. Every single day, sometimes twice a day, the system downloads the exact same patch and waits for me to install it. It's patch #KB835732.
I still don't know whether a virus is deleting this patch everyday or what. All I know is that it insists on installing this patch everyday, and will it will sit there in the systray until I acknowledge it.
I tried installing the patch manually and that didn't work. I updated both my virus scanner and firewall and have run numerous full scans. Still nothing. I'm desperate now. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
