Dear All,
I am encountering a major problem in my "Windows NT Server Version 4"
"It restarts and boots when logon screen comes".
I tried to start the system again but no use. As soon as the log-on scree comes (Ctrl-Alt-Del Screen), the systems restarts itself.
Can any body explain where is the problem and How can this problem be solved ?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Can you please tell how we can get a file from linux machine to a windows machine.Suppose there
is a file called /home/rohit/myapp.exe of size 50MB. How can I get the file to my windows
machine. I think I should be using telnet and ftp but what are the commands.
Actually i downloaded a application from internet to my linux machine and now i want to transfer
it to my windows machine.
Please comment
Thanks in advance.

If both machines are in a network you have several possibilities. You can use Samba to mount a Windows network share in Linux or to share a Linux directory to Windows machines. For FTP, you must run a FTP server program in one machine and a FTP client in another.

If you are running sshd you should be able to secure ftp to your home directory. Some of the nicer windows ssh clients have sftp integrated.

Over the last week or so, clicking on a zip link in IExplorer downloads and opens the zip file directly in Winzip, As opposed to downloading and saving the file (after prompting).
Does anyone know what has happened to my IE settings and how to change this back to the original action?
cheers.

In IE6, open the Tools menu and select Folder Options. Click the File Types tab, then scroll down the list of types to ZIP. Select it, then click the Advanced button. Select the "Confirm open after download" checkbox, then OK twice to close the dialogs. In earlier versions of IE the Folder Options function is located in the View menu, I believe. In versions 4 and earlier you have to edit the registry - check the Knowledge Base at Technet for info on this.

Thanks. I have this problem too, so I'll use this fix.
One more thing - it's not in IE , it's in Explorer.

Too right... My mistake. They all look alike after a while, you know.

I used to have the Ctrl-Alt-Del before logging in option turned on in WinXP, but since I reformatted, I can't find the setting anymore - all I get is the 'simple' user manager control panel applet, I can find nowhere to change it to 'advanced'

Don't have XP so the following may be nothing more than a pile of sh*t. To do this in Windows 2000 Professional I do the following -
1. Go to User and Passwords in Control Panel
2. Go to the Advanced tab
3. Under the Secure Boot Settings group box
4. Check Require users to press Ctrl-Alt-Delete before logging on

Thanks for the reply Yes, that is what you do in Win2k, but the problem is that XP by default hides the 'advanced' features from possible dumb users, and I can't find where I turned that 'feature' off last time. Thanks anyway

Here maybe ?

Hmmm... No, it's still in 'simple' mode, so it only asks "Show welcome screen" and use "Fast User Switching". The problem is to get it into 'advanced' mode so it asks about the Ctrl-Alt-Del thing... Tks anyway

Q307874[^] explains how to kill that abominable Simple File Sharing crud. Q308226[^] discusses how to disable/enable the Ctrl-Alt-Del logon sequence.

Thanks - your link gave me an idea - look in local policies! Finally it works

What causes a Console application to get terminated when run through a service?
It happens only on some machines. I have seen it on Win 2000 and Win 2003. The service is running in a domain account which is a local admin.

If it's a Win32 game and the game doesn't provide the option, then you're most likely out of luck. Under Direct3D at least, dealing with rendering to a window has a number of peculiarities which are different from rendering fullscreen, so some games just don't support it. I suspect OpenGL is similar, but I don't have enough experience with OpenGL to really say if it's possible to have an external application force the game to render to a window.
This is, of course, assuming you're referring to a 3D game...

Thanks Very much

I'm trying to find a way to delete a user-defined EventLog file.
I create the reg keys (for example) :
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\EventLog\My Log
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\EventLog\My Log\File
and set ...\File = %SystemRoot%\system32\config\MyLog.evt
The file MyLog.evt is created by the EventLog monitor ... as expected.
Unfortunately it (services.exe i.e. EventLog monitor) maintains open references (4 it seems) to the file handle.
I guess it was a bit of wishfull thinking to hope that the handle would be closed when the reg key ...\My Log was deleted (and yes I make sure there are no sources left using the EventLog before I try to delete it).
My current solution is to queue a MoveFileEx(MOVEFILE_DELAY_UNTIL_REBOOT | MOVEFILE_REPLACE_EXISTING) to a hardcoded filename.
Does anyone know of another way to get the ELM to release all references (close the handle) from C++ Win32 so that I don't need a reboot ?
I don't have .NET installed although I noticed it has a class that wraps access to EventLogs i.e. EventLog, and has a Delete method to delete a custom log file.
Does anyone know how the .NET EventLog.Delete works ?

I am having classical code to delete file to the recycle bin:
bool DeleteToRecycleBin(const char *pszFilePath)
{
//double-zero terminated string
char szFile[1024];
strncpy(szFile, pszFilePath, sizeof(szFile)-1);
szFile[strlen(szFile)+1] = '\0';
SHFILEOPSTRUCT fileop;
ZeroMemory(&fileop, sizeof(SHFILEOPSTRUCT));
fileop.wFunc = FO_DELETE;
fileop.pFrom = szFile;
fileop.pTo = NULL;
fileop.fFlags = FOF_ALLOWUNDO | FOF_SILENT | FOF_NOERRORUI | FOF_NOCONFIRMATION;
if(SHFileOperation(&fileop) != 0)
{
//failed to delete to recycle
return false;
}
return (0 != _access(szFile, 0));
//return true;
}
I found this very spooky problem when calling this function on the following file ararngement:
1. inside some test directory create directory "VC6-ch04-Documents and Views_files"
2. inside test directory create file "VC6-ch04-Documents and Views.htm"
3. when trying to delete the file, as a bonus, function also deletes the directory !!!! (grrr, I've lost some important data this way).
I also repeated this problem using delete feature from Total Commander file manager on the same OS plaform.
I didn't test if this bug is "available" on other versions.
Can anyone verify this bug (OS: windows XP Home, SP1, Compiler: VC++ 6.0) ? Also, if this is the bug, where can I report it officialy ?
