Thanks Roath:
I almost forgot this thread, It reminds me things happened last year and people I knew. Actually I posted this message when I was in my "previous" job. It was just several months ago, but for me it seems happened in distant past. Thanks again!

Afther a long search over the internet and MSDN, I decided to ask someone more skilled than me that may be on this forum...
Is there possible to intercept an application file operation reqest? Let's say an application is triing to open a file, can I set a hook that notifies me that?
If not, how can this goal be accomplished? Writing kernel mode intermediate drivers for the i/o routines?
I hope I understand...because is a rough world out there...

Hi,
I have to write application to detect Disk configuration.
Is disk type is Basic or Dynamic?
I know Basic disk is supported by all windows versions, but dynamic is supported only by windows 2000, XP Pro, 2003 Server.
I am able to get the OS information but unable to get info for hard disk's.
Can anyone help me?
Thanks,
sanjay

Hello,
I have a huge problem here at home. I have accidently denied write access to my D: drive. No other account has enough priviliges to change the access on any of the drives. After I changed the settings, I found that it was the wrong group (Administrators). Soon I found out that I couldn't change priviliges anymore for myself or other users on the drive.
Is there a way to enable somebody to change priviliges on the drive when nobody has that privilige on that drive anymore?
Thanks in advance.

Well, in my experience the Adminstrator account can change permissions even when it itself doesn't have permissions to it. I'm thinking I did this once. Try logging in as the Administrator and changing it.

That didn't work unfortunatly. Maybe it would have worked when the access wasn't denied to the Administrator.
Now I have to options:
1) Back the entire partition up on an other partition, remove the D: drive and reinstall the entire partition.
2) Same as above, but use some tool to restore the NTFS system instead of backing it up.
Do you know if there is some (free) tool capable of restoring the entire file table of a partition?

you can connect your hard disk into another computer and access the whole drive content... see then where to remove the rights...

I don't think that I can change the access rights of one OS using another OS. The drive isn't a network share, and even if I change the rights from the network, or another OS, these changes don't apply to the local system.
I think that my best option is to backup the drive and re-create the entire partition.

hi bob,
i don't understand the point with the network.
i just suggested you to unplug the hard disk from the PC it is connected, and plug it into another...
you will see that by doing this, NTFS becomes nothing.... 
all the security rules that are seet on a system don't mean anything on an other... try it if you have another computer you can open and plug some material inside...

So you mean, that if I install the hard drive in another computer (different OS), the security settings are invalidated? Doesn't this mean that if I reinstall the hard drive does the same thing?
My only problem with this is that my OS is on the same drive. The drive has multiple partitions, but physically it is the same drive.
I'll try your suggestion when I have the time for it.

The problem with the network is that you can set local and network permissions. These settings don't affect eachother. So I think that you cannot set local security settings (local user) with a network administrator (remote user). I could be wrong though, since I'm not very into this subject.
Anyway, thanks for the suggestion.

ok for the local/network point ; actually, i wans't talking about that at all.
for your hard disk, yes, plugging it into an other computer - whatever OS, if it does understand NTFS - the rights are not effective for the new hosting system. there, you could remove the restriction you unfortunately set for the administrators, and try back booting on the system.
if it has worked, you won't have to reformat the partition.

I solved the problem now .
I used the method that required the least interaction from me, which was backing up the files, removing, restoring the partition and last restoring the backup. From me it only took 5 minutes and I accomplished this during dinner.
I'll try your method for experimenting purposes when I have more time on my hands. Thanks for the info!

Bob,
I think if you removed all permissions from a folder for even adminstrator, Windows would give a warning saying 'No one access'.
Under this circumstance, when you just doubleclick it would say 'Access is denied'. But you can go to Advanced, and try to take the ownership and then the control would be restored to the administrator.
Did this help you?

Hello,
Just even pointing to the drive made windows screem: "ACCESS DENIED". So even the property pages didn't show up.
I solved the problem by creating a backup administrator that had read access to the entire drive.
Second, I made a windows backup using the backup service.
Third I removed the partition, recreated the partition and restoring the backup. After that, everything worked again.

Not click on the drive. Just right click on it and choose property command and the dialog box appear. Go to the security tab and click on button advance. The new dialog box appear and go to the owner tab and take ownership of the drive. Then you will have full access to that drive.

Hi
I wanted to know how could I programatically add a path to the system in windows 2000,XP. In earlier DOS and win9x, I could use a PATH command in autoexec.bat file. I'm not sure if it should be the case for the latter windows. I also searched the registry for such entry, but I didn't get anything for that.
Thanks

Can any one solve this?
1.) I need to creat an user which can add workstation to domain but should not belong to local admin.
2.) I need to creat a user account which can only disjoin the workstation from domain but not belong to local admin.

solution to No 1.
u can create a new group by going to "computer management" and under local users and groups add the users who have those privileges to that group.
next u have to go to local security policies, and look at the user rights assignment, theres a policy that states "add workstations to domain" click on it and add the group to the policy
solution to No 2.
the same process implies here, except i couldnt find a proper policy that states "unjoin/disjoin a workstation from the domain". maybe a pro will be able to help.
are we able to create our own policies, if so, how?

Hi all
I am using VB 6.0 and trying to use SetForeGroundWindow() API in Windows XP . But the API's behavior seems to be different from Non XP OS , because the minimized Application window gets the focus btu waits for a mouse click to come to fore ground . Is there anyway to make the Application window to come to forground straight away ?
