ApplicationGoo looks like version resource stored in registry, at least on my machine. Have no idea what they're using it for. Maybe for comparing currently executing image with the one executed before?

We have a client/Server application which, on the server side, runs on a dedicated, stand alone, server. We have a logon procedure by which we force users to authenticate themselves to us when they logon with a username and password. We would like to avoid this for those users who access our service if they are already properly logged onto their local network.
For example, what we want is to have some means of identifying a user trying to log onto our system as a properly authenticated member of domain XYZ of their network server. Is there any means of acquiring network information from the client side, which can be passed to our server which would allow us validate a user automatically? Clients might be running under Win 95/98.
Also, is there any way to uniquely identify a given network domain? That is, can we distinquish domain XYZ of one network, from domain XYZ of another network using the standard Windows networking API?

If the client use Named Pipes to talk to the server, you can do it pretty easy.
Named Pipes supports NT Security 
If you want to know more about Named Pipes and NT Security, I recommend the book: "Programming Server Side Applications for Windows 2000", from MS Press...

Thank you. I will look into that. However, one quick question, doesn't the use of a named pipe imply that you have a service running on the server in question in order to establish the converstation between client and server? In our situation, our service is running on a server external to the primary network that a client might be on. We simply want to be able to basically "piggy back" off of their existing network security so the user does not have to log on twice, once to get onto their network, and once to get into our service. No solution that requires us to have something running on thier server is going to work. We need to have information from the client relative to its status on the network so that we know that when the client calls us, it can tell us if it is, in fact, properly logged on to the its network.

Ohhh, now I know what you want, and you are right, you cannot use Named Pipes for that.
I guess I would get my client app. to chech that the user is authentificated against a DC, and send a special packet to the server, when connecting, saying "I'm ok

Thanks. I think that is what we have decided to do. Unfortunantly, to do that authentication from 95/98 does not appear to be straight forward, and might involve the use of the old 16 bit network api.

Can anybody please tell me where I can find a list of the functions in the DLL's and the parameters they require?
|
|
|
|
|
Use Depends.exe to find out the names of the funtions. Some functions are documented i.e. you can find help in MSDN. Some functions are NOT documented, but you may be able to find their parameters in some header files and some just aren't documented which makes it more difficult to figure out the parameters.

Thank you very much.

Can you recommend a good book on these functions?
|
|
|
|

Hmm, I really don't know of any one book which just talks about functions. I just use the online help.
If you do want to know more about undocumented calls, etc then
Inside Windows200 would be a good start.

Hi,
I want to add some extra file cleanup when I uninstall a device by pressing the "uninstall" button on the driver property sheet for the device.
Where do I need to put this cleanup code.
Is there a section I need to put in the driver INF file?

Edit your system.ini file so the [boot] section contains this line
shell=explorer.exe
You'll need to boot from your Me startup disk (or other disk with DOS on it) since AFAIK you can't boot from the HD and stop at the command prompt anymore in Me.

I need to know if it is possible to use two mice in windows 2000, without having to write my own drivers.. For a medical imaging project I am working on I need to have both a mouse and a trackball. The mouse will be for the normal mouse pointer functionality, while I need to use the trackball only to Window and Level the images (contrast adjustment). I know with USB I can hook both up, but how do I communicate with the second input device.
Thanks in Advance,
John

From the user logon script I am attempting to determine whether or not the connection is via a dial-up connection or through the Ethernet adapter. The clients are all running Windows 2000. I have been trying to use WMI to extract the information. I can successfully pull information using the Win32_POTSModem, but this does not provide information about an actual connection. When I tried to use Win32_SerialPortConfiguration I began having problems getting the script to run properly. I have provided the SUB I am using. Any advice anyone have would be appreciated.
Private Sub Check_Modem()
Dim objWMI, objModemSet, Modem, ModemInfo
Dim SerialPortSet, SerialPort, SerialPortInfo
Dim Dialup AS Boolean
Set objWMI = GetObject("winmgmts:")
Set objModemSet = objWMI.InstancesOf("Win32_POTSModem")
Set objSerialPortSet = objWMI.InstancesOf("Win32_SerialPortConfiguration")
For Each Modem In objModemSet
For Each SerialPort in objSerialPortSet
If SerialPort.Name = Modem.AttachedTo Then
If SerialPort.IsBusy Then
Dialup=True
End If
End If
Next
Next
End sub
Thanks

hi,
I'm a budding systems administrator. I'm trying to learn scripting. Now what I want is a script that shuts down the NT4 Server at a certain pooint of time by stopping all the services running before shutting down.
Since i'm new to scipting I would like to take guidance in doing so. SO can neone provide me a script as I have no idea as to how to start, so that I can improvise on it by learning from the script before trying it out with other features.
