When will you get up and ask your question? 
|
|
|
|
|
My first time on these forums.
Is this the right forum to ask questions about NTFS alternative data streams (ADS), Indexing Service and DSOFile?

Yes, it is. But you should give more explaination about the question that you ask. Do you have some problem with it or need to have and overview about its concept? Ok, anyway I still help you. I assume that need to know about its concept. Show let start from here about NTFS ADS[^], windows 2000 indexing service[^] and DSO File[^].

OK, here's what I really want to enquire about -
I am designing an application that uses ADS to keep extensive metadata (well beyond Custom properties) that describe GIS files,
and would like to be able to retain the streams on a medium such as CD-R or DVD.
What alternatives do I have to do that?
I would prefer to write something myself using C# or VB.NET - so the useful APIs would be a first step.
Hope you have some ideas;)

Last night, I 'volunteered' to upgrade a friends PC from 98SE to XP, a bad  move!
XP does not see the cable modem on startup, powering down/up the modem when XP is running will make XP to see it and then it works OK.
I have seen reports that it could be a USB problem on the PC, has anyone had any experience of this?

I used to have an experience with my modem at home. I have one modem and my computer running windows xp. During the time that I turn my computer on without turnning the modem on too, the modem won't be detect and found in the Device manager of my computer properly dialog box. To solve it, I have to go to device manager windows and right click on my computer name and choose Scan for New Hardware. Then my modem would be found in the list. On the other hand, you should check the modem model and try to find its driver on the internet for windows xp (if it is possible). Try to find the search result in the Microsoft Knowledge base support website.[^]

Here's my dilemma. In order to understand it better let me just tell you what I want the result of the task to be:
Kill all processes EXCEPT the ones I tell you not to kill.
I wan't to use the pslist & pskill (both by sysinternals.com) utilities to accomplish this task but using a batch file to automate the procedure. Basically I want to somehow parse the output of pslist.exe and feed it to the pskill.exe utility in such a way that I can terminate all the processes in memory EXCEPT a few predefined ones such as "svchost.exe" obviously. Get it? Is this possible to do in a simple batch file or will this shiznit require some more thought?
Please let me know if you can help. Much appreciated.

A client PC on the work network went south this week - no apparent reason. The setup: a Win2K Server with 6 clients, in a domain with Active Directory. All clients are fairly new Dells running WinXP SP2. The server is a Dell Xeon blade server updated to SP4. All clients are configured more or less identically, using automatic settings for TCP/IP. One, however, can't acquire IP settings from the DHCP server. I set the IP configuration manually. It can't reach the Internet, it can't log on to the domain. It can ping every other device on the network (except the Internet gateway, a Linksys router), and browse the network - including the server - but it can't be pinged from any other host. Nslookup from the client reports no DNS server can be reached, yet it can access and copy files on the server running DNS, and no other client has trouble accessing the DNS service.
I think I can rule out a DHCP or DNS failure, and there is clearly nothing wrong with the physical link. The DHCP and DNS client services are up and running, but NETLOGON occasionally refuses to start. SFC doesn't report any damaged system files. I'm stumped.
Any suggestions before I roll back the configuration to an earlier date?

Check your DHCP server, whether there is no IP available for the client??? If so, try to increase the scope of your DHCP server.

As far as I know, router is block the broadcast signal of the machine when it broadcast for DHCP server. In that case mean the router is in the middle of the client and DHCP server. In order to solve that you must have DHCP relay agent to manage the broadcast signal and get an IP address from DHCP server.
One more thing, try to check your subnet mask after you change it to static IP address. Whether it point to the right class or not.
Good luck

All clients, except this one, are working perfectly. All IP settings are correct. The DHCP server has a scope large enough to handle the whole Indian tribe, more than enough for 7 PCs in my little company. I suspect that something has corrupted the networking software (I did remove 1396 spyware/adware objects from it a few weeks ago), and under an earlier version of Windows I would remove and reinstall networking. WinXP doesn't allow this, however.

How about router? Do you have router in the middle of DHCP server and client or not? If so, then you will need DHCP relay agent between the client and the router because without DHCP relay agent, router will block broadcast signal from the client to DHCP server during the time that client request an IP address from the DHCP server.

I have an MFC application that needs to open up to 2500 threads. I wrote a quick benchmarking app to find where the limit is on various OS's and configurations. On my work PC (Windows XP Pro SP2, 1.7MHz, 512MB RAM), the limit is 2008 threads. On an older NT PC, it was 1017, and on a newer Server 2003 PC (1GB RAM) the limit was 2015. I've tried changing the stack space allocated in AfxBeginThread. The numbers don't change. I always have plenty of physical memory still available after the limit is reached.
Is there a resource limit per process? Any other ideas?

You're kidding, right? OK, assuming not, threads aren't free. Each thread gets a 1 MB stack, so once you open approximately 2000 threads, you will have exhausted your 2GB process space. Even if you change the stack size, the OS keeps internal data structures for each thread, which again use up process space. This has nothing to do with how much RAM is in the box, virtual memory is not the same as physical memory.

Hi guys is there anyone that use Windows 2003 server with MS SQL 2000 server.
Is MS SQL 2000 server compatible with this OS?
Thank YOU!!!

Yes, it is. When you try to install SQL Server, Windows Server will produce a warning message telling you to upgrade to SP3. You should still be able to complete the installation. You should then apply Service Pack 3 and the MS03-031[^] security patch. If you decide to apply this patch you should also consider applying the patch in KB 826161[^] to your Enterprise Manager installations. This patch fixes an issue where Enterprise Manager prompts for a new password when you make changes to a SQL Server login.
See also the KB article "Windows Server 2003 Support for SQL Server 2000"[^].
