Re: F1 usage Dan Neely29-Jul-05 2:10 Dan Neely 29-Jul-05 2:10  Contact your machines manufacturer. There might be a utility on their website, but since laptops are more readily stolen they're often designed to prevent a user from being able to do it at all, and instead making it a factory repair job. Wish I could be more help. Re: F1 usage Mekong River28-Jul-05 3:10 Mekong River 28-Jul-05 3:10  YongSheng Li wrote: I'm wondering what's the use in press F1 button when the system is booting up!

APO-CEDC Save Children Norway-Cambodia Office high handles(?) usage in XP SP2 alexon@smtp.ru23-Jul-05 22:22 alexon@smtp.ru 23-Jul-05 22:22  Hello i have a strange problem with WinXP SP2: my computer runs 24/7 and doing lots of work, recently (after 9 days uptime) i noticed that the system can't open new dialog windows, show tabs menu in task manager, don't allow to run new tasks (typing 'ping' command produces no output at all!) etc.. that was strange for me cause on win2k i never noticed such a behavior, later i understand that it is cause of HIGH handles usage (as seen in task manager), as soon as it reaches ~10000 the system begins to misbehave i need to close/rerun tasks to repair it withous rebooting maybe anyone have ideas how to overcome this problem (rebooting is not a good solution) ? Re: high handles(?) usage in XP SP2 Ted Ferenc24-Jul-05 2:48 Ted Ferenc 24-Jul-05 2:48  You have probably found this http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=327699 There is a maximunm of 10,000 handles per process, the solution? Fix the program/task that is not freeing off the handles it is creating! I think handles are part of the non paged pool, this is a finite resource so eventually your PC willl crash if the resources are not released, hence the limit of 10,000 "An education isn't how much you have committed to memory, or even how much you know.

APO-CEDC Save Children Norway-Cambodia Office Developing a simpe firewall tmp023-Jul-05 11:51 tmp0 23-Jul-05 11:51  Hello all, I’m trying to develop a simple/personal firewall using C#. I used Jesus O’s class for setting the rules and it is working smoothly. However, I’m trying to search for a way to make the application ask the user if a certain program is trying to access the internet, showing the port, address, direction…etc (just like the popup dialog in ZoneAlarm). I’m not even sure if this is the right place to ask, but any hint on how to do it, implement it, the algorithm for it or the API would be highly appreciated. Many thanks in advance, tmp0 Re: Developing a simpe firewall ddmcr27-Jul-05 22:09 ddmcr 27-Jul-05 22:09  tmp0 wrote: I’m not even sure if this is the right place to ask, I'd suggest you to post this question in the C# Forums section.Maybe there you will have a reply I also wanted to develop similar application to yours , but could not get enough info about it.Could you please e-mail me if you get any useful replys to your post.

After a little examination I've noticed that there is a task scheduled to run every hour at hh:45, called "Collect server performance data" (or something along those lines, translated from a localized version). Everytime this task starts, the CPU usage goes up to 100% and performance becomes poor for a few minutes. Does anyone have an idea why does it cause such a performance drop? Is it safe to just change the schedule to, let's say, once a day during the night hours? Should I change it directly in the "Scheduled Tasks" or should it be configured elsewhere?

This is probably on the start menu somewhere. As for why CPU usage peaks, it's probably set to a really small sample interval, so virtually all the system is doing is reading the performance counters. Stability. What an interesting concept. -- Chris Maunder Self-installable VPN client connection? Radoslav Bielik23-Jul-05 3:33 Radoslav Bielik 23-Jul-05 3:33  Hi everyone, I hope somebody can point me in the right direction. Is it possible to create a self-installable configuration file which will automatically create a VPN connection on a client workstation? The idea is that the users won't have to create and configure their connections manually, and would just run the installer which would create the connection automatically for them. Once created, they would just enter their own username/password when connecting for the first time. The server is Windows Server 2003 Standard SBS, workstations are all Windows XP home/pro. I've tried to google for it, but I probably can't find the right keywords as I didn't find anything useful.
