Well, if you are going to use Peer to Peer network, that you don't even need to have a hub/switch.
With no switch you need a crossover cable to switch the TX and RX signals to the appropriate pins. Also, you need a switch as soon as you want to add a third PC.

True, third PC requires to have a HUB/Switch unless you have a PC with two interfaces, and some packet forwarding software.
Making cross-over cable is not really hard.

Hi,
Was just trying out a small sample code which allocates certain amount of memory(say 80 MB).Now the Task Manager shows certain amount of memory(xxxx). I generate 400000 random numbers and free of the memory in those locaitons. the random number funda is used to have a defragmented deallocation. Even after freeing almost half(40 MB) of memory the Task manager dosent seem to show the reduction. I guess, this is because of the defragmented deallocation which was done.Any suggetions or comments???

This is probably in the workings of the (MSVC I presume) CRT memory manager. Have a look at the malloc/free (and its implementation functions) sources and you'll see likely causes. Basically, it doesn't give up memory to the OS right away.
Disclaimer: This depends on the OS and version of the MS CRT! MSVC6+ using NT5+ uses the plain HeapAlloc API's where older versions do not, and IIRC it's only for allocations above/below a certain threshold.

1. This is the wrong forum.
2. When you do find the right forum you might explain a little more of how you're trying to connect (ODBC, DAO, ADO, OLEDB, RDO,... did I forget anything?), including what error messages/symptoms you get when trying to do what you want to do.

Is ther any way to clear the explorer address bar in w2k.
Clearing the history (as suggested by microsoft) does not clear the address bar history which is now very cluttered.
(I have also killed off the temp internet files & cookies)
I have searched the registry and scanned all files searching for the text but cannot find a match - it must be encrypted somewhere....
Any ideas ?
|
|
|
|
|
Hmmm... Nobody seems to be able to answer my question. Maybe there is no answer.
I have however come up with an alternative - it is a bit rough but fixes my clutter problem.
I have deleted and re-created my user account. (yuk !!)
Lucky I wasn't using the administrator account...
Thanks anyway...

The clear history has always worked for me. If it is still not working for you, aside from reinstalling IE, you could decrease the number of days that.it keeps page(s) in history from 20.

Hi all,
I created a service under account it is in network domain. when i start this service it return error:1069-- the service was started from an account which does not have logon as a service provilage.
Then I use the sample code provided by Microsoft to grant this provilage to this account this seems ok because all return value are ok. but start service still doesnot work. same problem.
I open the policy on local computer and i logon as this account.
return LsaAddAccountRights(
PolicyHandle, // open policy handle
AccountSid, // target SID
&PrivilegeString, // privileges
1 // privilege count
);

Hi!
I have written an NT Service to monitor an application execution.
The NT Service detect properly when the application crashes (deadlock).
In order to reboot the system I am using the API function ExitWindowsEx to reboot the system, but it doesn’t work very well. As a matter of fact, when I call this API function the system shows a blue screen and stay in this situation timelessly.
The code that I am using (the shut down example from MSDN) is show below (I guess I have got the right privilege).
Does anybody know how can I make the system reboot properly?
Thank you very much for your attention.

HANDLE hToken;
TOKEN_PRIVILEGES tkp;
// Get a token for this process.
if (!OpenProcessToken(GetCurrentProcess(),
TOKEN_ADJUST_PRIVILEGES | TOKEN_QUERY, &hToken))
error("OpenProcessToken");
// Get the LUID for the shutdown privilege.
LookupPrivilegeValue(NULL, SE_SHUTDOWN_NAME,
&tkp.Privileges[0].Luid);
tkp.PrivilegeCount = 1; // one privilege to set
tkp.Privileges[0].Attributes = SE_PRIVILEGE_ENABLED;
// Get the shutdown privilege for this process.
AdjustTokenPrivileges(hToken, FALSE, &tkp, 0,
(PTOKEN_PRIVILEGES)NULL, 0);
// Cannot test the return value of AdjustTokenPrivileges.
if (GetLastError() != ERROR_SUCCESS)

// Shut down the system and force all applications to close.

I want to create a program that has it's own IP address that it gets via a standard DHCP server. My question is how would I go about creating a program that retrieve and actively used a seperate IP address than the machine it is running on?

If my memory doesn't completely fail me, DHCP IP's are handed out on a per-MAC basis. That is, if you already have been given an IP for the NIC at hand you can't be given another one while the previous lease is active.
If you on the other hand have a static IP (and there is no DHCP-client running on that machine for that NIC) you could possibly create your own DHCP client to request an IP from the DHCP server.
Perhaps it is better to use ports after all...

My thinking was that it would be a great firwall tactic route all unused ports to a dummy IP that just drops them. Oh well thanks for help though

???
Doesn't all firewalls have the option to just drop any traffic on a specific port?
You might find it more trouble and more costly than it's wort trying to do this using Windows (any version, not just XP). Windows (some might say even Microsoft itself) is really not suited for these tasks. Try getting you hands on an old 486 or something with two NIC's and then install some *BSD or GNU/Linux.

I already have a good firewall but I was just looking for a little pet project to play around with.

I recently visited the site codeproject & went through the tutorial
on install shield. I have recently made an installation which installs
my application in VC++ & at the same time installs the InterBase Server
& console. To achieve this installation i make entries in registry & for
auto starting the interbase server i have made entry in
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\CurrentVersion\Run
as InterBaseGuardian REG_STR <root dir="">IBServer.exe -a.
The installation is done in install shield for Microsoft VC++6.
I m facing a whimiscal problem whenever i install my appliaction in a compaq
machine that already contains Interbase server as well as VC++6 installed
in it. I tested my installation in an assembled machine which already has
both the things installed, but there it doesn't show that error.
As soon as the appliation is run it first shows message box "cann't create
socket" and then it shows "XTG unable to establish connection to the host
unknown win 32 error 10106".
Is this error due to the istallation script or its related with the
application or interbase server.
Please help me out i ll be really grateful.
thanking you!
