Hi,
I am currently trying to retieve the path to a CDwriter, I have the targetId of the scsi device and require the drive path. I have a solution for NT,2000 which uses the CreateFile function to obtain a handle to the disk device and then use this handle with DeviceIoControl function and a drive path to return a targetID thus correlating TargetIds to drivepaths.
Unfortunately this method does not work on 98 as the CreateFile function will is not supported for retrieving a handle to a disk volume on 98.
Does anybody know of a method to get a handle to the disk device on 98 or a completely different method which would produce a drive path from a targetId or TargetId from DrivePath.

Ok I am sick of rebooting our server every time it flipping well runs out of terminal service "slots."
Basically we remote connect to our hosting box and we cannot always logout properly as the line may drop etc. We do try to avoid maxing out the number of active/disconnected connections but every now and then it does max out.
So does anybody know how to "reset" this situation without actually rebooting the server? Rebooting a server hosting websites is never a good idea, especially for something so daft as this. The OS is W2k.

Q250991[^] might help:
- Log on to the Terminal Services-based server locally.
- Click Start, point to Programs, point to Administrative Tools, and then click Terminal Services Manager.
- Click the appropriate Terminal Services-based server. Note the Users Tab in the right pane.
- If there are two remote sessions, right-click one of the users with a Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) session, and then click Logoff. (A reset also accomplishes this goal, but does not save profile changes.)

Thanks for the effort but that is exactly the problem: Our server is located in a veritable castle co-location facility which requires DEFCON 4 clearance to get into 
So we remote connect to do anything. If we have to have something physically done to the server then we call up the co-location facility and they charge us an hours worth of work to do something.

My correction! You are a genius Mr. Rhichard_D. The KB article started out just like all the others but then at the bottom it went on to tell how you could do it.
Lovely stuff, thank you, I owe you a beer

Remember to avoid this situation you have to tell your admins to log off when done with TS and not to disconnect . Disconnecting leaves these sessions connected ...
Just some advice ...

Thanks and very true advice. We do ensure that we logoff and not just disconnect, but due to the nature of our remote connection often we don't get a chance to do either as the line drops.

Hmmm, do you all log on as different users?
If you log on as the same user, I don't think you have that problem. I know I don't

XP SP1 has been running great since it came out, so how do I get rid of the service pack uninstall? Can I just delete the directory like I [think I] did under NT?
The same with hotfixes uninstalls.

That's what I did when I noticed how much space they were taking up, and no harm has come of my rash move. However, this is XP we are talking about, so don't sue me if things don't work out the same

Anyone have any insights as to why mail will not be delivered to external address.
We have an Exchange 5.5 system. A second server was installed with W2K and Exchange 2000. A test sample of mailboxes was moved. We could send and receive internally and receive from external addresses. We could not send to external addresses though. Have no idea were they are going to.

I had a problem with my partition table. My winXp restarted and then never booted even though i had Grub as boot loader. So I tried to fix te partition and removed linux's boot loader (GRUB). Now my Win98 works fine bu XP keeps telling me it has found a new Volume. I still have 4 ext3 partitions for linux but it wasnt the problem earlier.I had to stop Logical Disk anager service in XP.
I guess I need to solve it thru some sort of partions software. Wat could be the problem and its solution.

Has anyone experienced a problem when running debug in VS.NET that the Visual Studio act like it is starting the debuging process but the application never show up on the desktop. Sometimes I have to cancel debug and start over several times to make the application to really show up. (This is only happen in Windows XP not other platform).
thanks,

I have seen this problem on Windows XP and 2000. It has improved, but not gone away, since we upgraded our domain to Windows 2000.

i experienced this problem and finally found out that there was a previous instance of the program still running in the task manager. i terminated this instance and then it worked.

I need to add a registry setting in HKEY_CURRENT_USER.
I want this setting to be available for all users on
the machine. How can existing users and new users inherit
this setting. I cannot use the key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE.
|
|
|
|
|
In that case, the registry is the wrong place (at least, current user is). Your alternative (if it's your app) would be to have the information in a publicly accessible file.

Anybody ever setup multiple web servers behind MS Proxy Server?
We have 1 machine which serves as the proxy-web-ftp-etc server right now. What we're aiming for is this: 1 proxy machine would redirect to a couple of other machines which would serve up web pages.
We thought we could just setup the proxy's web publishing (in IIS) to route requests to the different machines but the machines on our internal network can't get to these web sites. You have to use the computer name to get to them (example: http://webserver1 instead of http://www.domainname.com/webserver1).
Any ideas on the best way to set this up or a work around to the problem above??
