Hi,
Thank you for the reply. But by design I chose the process to be a console exe.
Thanks again & Best Regards, Renuka

Probably your best bet is to define a special command-line option and put this in your Startup shortcut or Run registry key. Otherwise some way of measuring the system uptime is probably necessary.
GetTickCount is supposed to return the number of milliseconds since the system started, but I believe there are options somewhere to force the initial count to be a large number, so that counter rollover happens fairly soon after system startup, so this may not be reliable. If using the .NET Framework, the equivalent is System.Environment.TickCount.
GetSystemTimes tells you how much clock time has been spent idle, running kernel-mode code and running user-mode code. The sum of these three should be the amount of time the system has been running for.

Thank you for the kind response. I kept my application under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run registry key.
But still I'm under the impression that process should compare its startup time with the system up time to know whether the present startup is the first startup right after windows reboot.
Does this make sense?
I felt that it was necessary because the console application can be killed once started via CTRL+C, CTRL+BREAK, TaskManager-> EndTask. Under such scenarios in the next iterations of process startup it is not necessary for the process to do the special initialization done during the very frist startup right after machine reboot.
Thanks again & Best Regards, Renuka

This will not tell you if its first start or not. Depending on how fast or slow the system does initialization of things before it gets to the Run key, this time can be very variable.
Better to log within your initialization when the proram was started. When your process starts compare the entry to the latest eventlog entry 6009, which tells you the time of the last restart of the system. If the eventlog entry is newer than what you logged last time, it means its the first start. Otherwise its not the first.

Okay, I'm going insane. I have a Win XP Pro development machine that will not find any files when I search for them. FWIW, indexing is off on the hard drive. I don't care about performance, as I only search short trees of files.
So, I go to the top of a tree, hit search, enter in a filename that I know is in the subdirectories, press search. no results.
This has to be something really stupid. msdn searches yielded nothing... ideas?

Click Change Preferences, Change files and folders search behaviour, Advanced, then OK. Expand More Advanced Options and change Type of File to (All Files and Folders). Tick 'Search system folders', 'Search hidden files and folders' and 'Search subfolders'. Ensure the options under When Was It Modified? and What Size Is It? are set to 'Don't Remember'.
While in the Change Preferences box I click 'Without An Animated Screen Character' too.

That ("Rover") actually does not take much resources. The search algorithm itself is slower.

Yeah, I know. That's not why I turn it off. I turn it off because it's annoying.

It is slow also and none of the applications would get CPU slice. I would prefer GDC (Google Desktop Search).

Well, so far, no joy. I went through all of the settings to see if they matched up, and they did. I don't need a super efficient search. I know better than to search "C:\". My typical use is to start at the top of a source tree and see if I can locate a header file.
This is just weird.

I have developed a server and client application for lan monitoring.The problem is that I have to change the permissions of of my client application for all users, but changing permissions in all the computers is hectic task(when we have a large no. of computers connected to server). so I want to cahnge permissions from server only without going to all computers.
Is there any application to do this.
please help urgently

Hi - trying to check connectivity with tracert command
(1) from here to pdir.bloomberg.net

(2) how do I check connectivity to a subnet:
<br />
208.134.161.0 [255.255.255.0]
Thanks very much!

(1) That means that tracert stopped waiting on a reponse by that node because it took too long.
(2) Use Ping. ICMP Type 3 Code 0 is for "Network unreachable". You might get that reply from a chatty (not stealthy) router which realized it has no port to send your ping request to.
However, these computers could be anywhere, they don't have to be in the same room physically, so "checking for subnet connectivity" is not something you usually do.
Cheers,
Sebastian

Like the other poster said, there are 3 possibilities.
1. The 11th hop is down for some reason.
2. The 11th hop takes too long to respond, where TRACERT times out and give up waiting for a response.
3. The 11th hop is configured to ignore/drop/misroute ICMP ECHO requests.

30th hop total - what does it suggest? max depends on routing protocol? 30 seems a big number...?

Oh yeah it is. This happens, usually, because of a router configuration problem, but can also be caused by a bad link between the 11th and 12th hop. The 11th hop can time out and you get a response back from the 12th hop, probably because the reply packet had another path back to your machine.
When you send a ping packet down a route, there is NOTHING that says the reply packet has to take the same route back! The replys can take take route available to get back to your machine.
devvvy wrote: 30th hop total - what does it suggest? max depends on routing protocol? 30 seems a big number...?
By default, TraceRoute will only go the first 30 hops. There is no way for it to know how many hops are actually in the path to the destination, so in the event of a Timeout, TraceRoute just assumes that A hop failed. It has no way of knowing WHICH hop failed, or how many hops are required to reach the destination machine.

Option 3 is highly likely in the modern internet. No sense allowing attackers to know that you're there. It's amazing anything responds to 'trace route' packets nowadays.

have an application in visual c++ relating to client and server. this appliaction does many types of work like getting all user names logged on to computers,remote shutdown,remote logoff, getting the remote desktop view and many others types of functioning related to "lan monitoring" through server. but for this , client application has to be executed all the time whenever any user logon through his local account.
but the problem is that I couldn't find any way to execute the "client exe" automatically whenever any user logon through his/her local account.But I could execute the client exe automatically for the administrator by making changes in the registry but I have to execute it "for all users".
So please help me to find any way to execute the client exe for all users automatically whenever they logon through their local account.Is there any win api or by making any registry changes or any program which can call the exe automatically whenever any user login.
ps:since this is all a part of a domain so all the other users are less priviliged than admin
