I've implemented a dll password filter for strong password.
It's work fine but the users reporting un messagge not good when they setting their new password.
Is there a solution for customize the windows messagge if new passwords don't meet the requiremnts?
In my opinion, if you want to change the meaning of the message box which appear when the user perform any action in windows, you should know which file that implement this task. I think it is the function which build in windows which store by the file system. If it is possible, try to use Resource hacker tool[^] which enable you to view and edite the Win32 file system. But you need to explore and modifiy carefully. I recommend you to back any system file before you make change to it.

In what conditions the dialog ask for user name, password and domain will be triggered, after open IE for browing?
|

Yes, There's a proxy server. but with proxy server, I(client) only get promoted for a dialog asking for username and password, I think if I want the domain entry appears, there must be domain involved, but I don't know exactly how to build that environment.I have made a Active Directory!

the proxy IS on a domain...

Sorry! I didn't make it clear. I have a Win 2000 Advanced server system, and in that system I configured a domain controller, because the questions above involve domain!

Hi there:
I posted a similar thread to Hardware and got the resolution like 'Windows Update would not interfere with Hardware Settings' and hence since my problem now I think is zeroing on with my Windows XP configuration only and hence posting to OS Forums.
The problem goes like this. I am forcing my system to autodetect the speakers and it does. But the moment the system reboots then it seems to forget the old settings and then I had to again make it detect.
Any settings are getting lost? I did cross check with system time etc to verify and eliminate any CMOS Battery interferences and everything else seems to be ok except for this strange bewildering problem.
Can somebody throw light on this issue?

I recommend you to check 2 things:
1. Check your membership, which group that your account belong to. Does the group that your account belong to have a sufficient right to install hardware driver (this point might be check in the group policies of your computer).
2. Check the driver signing option. Right click on My computer and click on the Property command, then go to Hardware tab. Then click on the button Driver Signing. The dialog box appear which present three option. Make sure that the Warn option is select, if an option is select on the Block option, that is the cause of the problem. And check on the check box Make this action the system default which apply this behavior to work in any user account.
Check it and let me know if you have any problem.

Hi:
I also wanted to know how to install RHL (Red Hat Linux) as Virtual PC. Some messageboard posting confirmed it but since RHL installation has lot of hardware-level issues, is there a checklist/manual on how to go about it?

i don't know at all about Virtual PC (i use VMWare instead).
what is your problem exactly ?

yes, i think so too, but i have no detail about how to install it, and make it work...
on VMWare, you only have to create a new machine to emaulate, and install whatever OS you want on it...

I did this, you create a virtual machine for non windows OS, jsut remember that you cannot have shared drives with the main PC.
Oh, for some reason I had to leave CDs in the drive for about 10-15 seconds after reading before RedHat could see them

Hi:
I am using VirtualPC in my system and need to test Windows Server also. But I am afraid to have Windows Server since my friend told me about heavy space consumption.
And also how to go about setting up. Since the base system is running Windows 2000 Professional, would it mix up any of the system files?

All disk accesses within the Virtual PC environment go to the emulated hard disk, so there is no chance of overwriting your system files (assuming of course that there are no problems with Virtual PC itself, but I've not noticed any).
The most common setup is to have Virtual PC emulate a primary master IDE hard disk using a file on your system somewhere. The 'New Virtual Machine Wizard' in Virtual PC 2004 prompts you to either 'Create a virtual machine' or 'Use default settings to create a virtual machine'.
If you select default settings, you get a virtual machine configured to use 128MB of RAM, no hard drives, the emulated CD-ROM drive attached to the secondary IDE controller, and virtual networking enabled, attached to your primary network card. Use the Virtual Disk Wizard to configure a virtual hard drive.
If you select Create a virtual machine, after a few steps asking you to select the OS and the amount of RAM, it will ask whether to use a new or existing virtual hard disk. If you select New, it will ask where to create the disk. It will create a 'dynamically expanding virtual hard disk'. From inside the virtual machine, this looks like a 16GB hard disk. From outside, it's a file which only uses as much space as has actually been written to from inside. A Windows Server 2003 virtual disk I have, which has only had the OS installed on it so far, takes 1.5GB of actual space.
Using the Virtual Disk Wizard, you can select three other types of disk: fixed size, differencing, and linked to a physical hard disk. A fixed size disk has the same size inside and outside the virtual machine - there is a one-to-one correspondence between the sectors of the emulated disk and sectors of the physical file. A differencing disk is one which is based on another virtual disk image - it only stores the differences between this disk and another. This can be useful for adding new software to a base image - you could have one basic Windows Server 2003 image and derive two or more new images from that.
Finally, if you're a computer administrator, you can use an actual physical hard drive as the virtual disk. This is the fastest but most risky option. The whole disk is accessible to Virtual PC and the guest operating system.
To install a guest OS, put the CD in your CD drive, select the virtual machine you'll be using, and choose Start from the Virtual PC Console, or from the Virtual PC tray icon's context menu. If the installer does not start up within the virtual machine, and the OS you're trying to install supports booting from CD, right-click the CD image in the status bar and choose 'Use Physical Drive n:', where n is the drive you put the CD into. Then select Action/Reset from the menu. You can also boot from an ISO image of a CD - from the CD menu, select Capture ISO Image rather than Use Physical Drive.
Stability. What an interesting concept. -- Chris Maunder

Is there a tool which I can boot PC from and inspect what software is installed on that PC (with Win system) without starting an installed system itself?

Try to use this software.[^]

I would like to have a listing in a text file of all the files in a directory, including all sub-directories.
I have been using:-
dir c:\myDir /s >> myfiles.txt
But are they any way you can get a tree type structure written to this file.
Many thanks,
Graham.

Should be pretty painless. I put my fiance's mother through it last Christmas and she did exceptionally well, as did my roommate the year before. Just remember that your Windows programs won't run on it, you will need to get Mac versions. Your documents/pictures/music etc. should move over seemlessly. One caveat on music, you will need Windows Media Player for OS X if you have music/video encoded in Windows Media formats.
Also, remember that it is a bit of a learning process. Most people have the biggest problem because they try to do things the XP way on a Mac. Remember that the Mac will be more intuitive so you'll find yourself not having to jump through hoops anymore, which is a bit of a shock to new Mac users.
Oh, and enjoy the switch, everyone who I know that's done it is much happier and actually now use their computers for useful things other than just trying to keep them virus-free.
