Norton is a useless piece of software that reports EVERY SINGLE SODDING SYN packet, even if there's nothing listening on that port. Replace it with something that works without annoying the heck out of you.
Windows XP SP2 (or later) has a built-in firewall. It blocks all incoming connection attempts apart from those to ports or programs you have explicitly allowed. You only get an 'Unblock' prompt when a previously unregistered program opens an unregistered port to listen on. If you choose to unblock, the program is then permitted to open any listening port in future.
Microsoft's position on outbound filtering was that there wasn't much point - once malware has got onto your computer, it can configure the firewall to allow traffic outbound anyway, at least if you're an administrator. Windows Vista's firewall offers outbound filtering but the default interface is the same as XP's - you have to go into Administrative Tools and open the 'Windows Firewall with Advanced Security' console to configure it.

Hi all,
I made an application in vc++ that clones a hard drive. In my application I am copying sector by sector of one hard drive to another hard drive. I copy all the sectors from sector 0 to end sector. That means I copy MBR of source Disk to Destination disk also, and also disk signature of source disk also copied to destination disk.
Now after cloning, In case of XP(when I cloning winXP disk to another) there is no problem I can reboot my system with cloned disk even Source disk is connected to machine also. When I check the disk signature of cloned drive it automatically changed by OS(because there can not be two Hard drives conneted to machine at same time having same disk signature) but system boots well and data is also there in both disk drives.
In case of VISTA when I clone my vista disk then also all sectors copied to Destination disk(including disk signature and all). After cloning If I boot my system with cloned drive(sourceVista disk is also connected) then the disk signature of cloned disk is changed - agree. But the system is not booting with Cloned disk and I get booting error "winload.exe" is currepted. Now if I remove my source drive from machine and try to boot with cloned disk then also I get same error message(I think that due to disk signature that was changed by OS when I rebooted). I can only boot my system with this cloned disk by changing the disk signature that was of SourceVista disk. It means I can reboot my system with Clone disk when it is connected seperately or with any other drive (other than sourceVista disk).
I tried to tell you my problem at my best but I am also confused that why it is happening.
I think it is right furum to place this problem.
Please anybody help me to sove the problem.
Thanks.

Hi, I'm running windows 2003 sp1. I used to apply group policy on my OU and now I want to edit it. But when I try to edit it again by accessing from the property of the OU, I found that the edit button is disable whether I already select my group policy object from the list. Does anyone know what is the cause of this problem? thank in advance

Folks,
Until recently I could right-click the taskbar and select Address from the Toolbars list. Now, on two machines, that item has disappeared. Where in the Windows XP system are these things kept and how can I get my address TB back?
TIA!

Well, I figured it out on my own...
Turns out the the XP-SP3 release removes the address toolbar, due to some legal issues (so I've read).
If you, like me, miss this feature, here's how you can get it back:

I fould the one from Niversoft to be the best for me; your mileage may differ.

Hi there,
Very simple question, will it be possible to debug in Win32 OS with Visual Studio 2008, where website is hosted on Linux with Apache 2 + Mono 2?
As far as I checked, my websites asp.net v2 works perfectly fine on linux, but will I be able to get VS debugging?
Thanks.

I want to do something like this
<br />
SRCSTR='abcdef'<br />
SRCSTR2='123'<br />
SRCSTR3='xxx'<br />
echo $SRCSTR | sed -e "s/def/$SRCSTR2/" | $SRCSTR3 <br />
echo $SRCSTR2<br />
echo $SRCSTR3<br />
What's unexpected is that .. output as follows
<br />
eqtgsybasehk@apaccmhkap019:Daily>./sedtest<br />
./sedtest: line 4: xxx: command not found<br />
123<br />
xxx<br />
I want basically to direct output from sed to a shell script variable.... how do I do that?

hmmm .. I would have tried something like :-
SRCSTR3=`echo $SRCSTR | sed -e "s/def/$SRCSTR2/"`
.. note the use of the 'backticks' around the command.. I cant think of another way of doing it (my unix admin is a bit rusty though)

Hello everyone, I'm having problem with my Window Server 2003 here. I have create a shared folder for the client. But I found that each client have to login if they need to retrieve the data from this shared folder.
I need this shared folder just available to read for the client and it doesn't need any password for the client to read the data inside this shared folder because actually my client is automaticly bootup the system and auto read the data from server in this shared folder. So its really imposible for the client to insert password for verification when they retrieve data from this server manually.
Anyone can tell me how should I create this shared folder in my server? What kind of setting should I do so that the client never need a password verification to read the data inside this folder?
Thanks for reading and help.
Regards
Drex

Are you using a domain or workgroup?
|
|
|
|
|
Yes,I'm sharing it with a workgroup but it doesn't still request me to read the sharing folder using a password for the client. Any idea/solution?
|
|
|
|
|
If I understand you correct you want to run something from a shared folder without having to log in a user.
One way is to run a script from HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
You still need to login to the shared folder though, one tool for doing that is found here[^]
The best is of course to use a domain and a group policy startup script.

We have requirement to load device driver (unsigned) on windows vista with Admin credentials. User is having Admin credentials but unable to load the driver. The same driver can be loaded on Windows XP Service Pack 2.
We have tried to find different tools but unable to get. Please let us know how can we install such device driver on windows vista.

If it's the 64-bit OS, you can't load unsigned drivers unless you hit F8 at boot time and pick the menu option to allow it.
|
|
|
|
|
Thanks for your reply. No it is 32 bit vista m/c. we are loading drivers (signed using verisign certificates) dynamically with built-in administrator credentials but fails to load. Also we copied our driver to System32/drivers folder and try to load the driver but it is still failing. Please suggest us to how to load signed drivers.

Can anyone recommend a way to back up a development server? It's not production - so, not life-threatening if something happened to it, but still setting the thing up with all the apps on it represents a lot of hours of work I would not like to have to recreate.
Is there a way to take snapshots of the whole thing periodically so that I could stand up the exact system (os, apps, data) if needed? I've read about software like Acronis True Image and Symantec Backup Exec... more expensive than I'd like, but maybe worth it if it really does the trick. Is there something else that would work reasonably well (again, this is development stuff, not critical)?
Thanks for any & all opinions!
|
|

|

I don't know if this is applicable for you. Our development server is running as a virtual machine and we take periodically snapshots of it (via the console application of vmware).
|
|
|
|
|
The machine I want to back up is actually a host for many virtuals. I was hoping if I could do an occasional live backup of the host, it would essentially be a backup of all virtuals and all their specific configurations. (kind of watching the watchman?...  )

Why do you have to use ICS? Can't you use a normal NAT gateway?
|
|
|
|
|
If I were to purchase a separate internet connected router I certainly could. ICS is a compromise in that I can use the USB external hardware supplied by my ISP and therefore maintain my service expectations from them in an area where I'm lucky to get a connection at all. If I buy my own connection kit I'll get no support when things go wrong.

In all the online tutorial about using wvdial it nis said to type

Please guys help me to connect to the net on linux otherwise switching between linux and windows to connect to the net is very irritating

. Worse, if I fix the Servers' IP address then it won't accept any address other than it's own as the default gateway. It claims to have 2 default gateways because it's assuming the DNS ( it's own address ) is already a default gateway
