Re: Guide to different Windows Docker base images? - Windows Development Discussion Boards

Hi
I just set up FTP on Windows 10 wonder if there are any registery setting for instance to find out the folder you set for your FTP Location

thanks

FTP on Windows 10 - Google Search[^]

all I come up with searching is how to install FTP on Windows which I already did I tested it out from z/os yesterday using FTP client API EZAFTPKS the MSDN api to lets me know about folder change I was just thinking rather then hard code the folder that I am monitoring for changes I could get the FTP folder name from registry doesn't seem like there is an entry

Check the documentation to see if it refers to any config options. Application developers generally avoid using the registry these days.

I think this method might help

With e.g. Ubuntu, it is simple: There is a single Docker base image, updated in step with the non-dockerized OS.

With Windows, you got a plethora of them: servercore, nanoserver, dotnet-framework, ... And it is difficult to tell which ones are meant as "general" bases, which ones are tailored to a (small or large) specific application area, which ones are more or less complete applications rather than primarily intended as base images.

The one-line description rarely tells more than the name does, and says nothing about how this alaternative compares to other alternatives.

Is there anywhere to be found a "comparison chart" over the various (general) Windows Docker base images, telling which features are included or not in each of them?

I will explain these in the most simple words, but you need to bear with me that the usage of these images is not for general cases, they are specialized images available for special needs.

Quote:
servercore, nanoserver, dotnet-framework

As their names suggest, they are the images for Windows Server, and here is the description for the image,

Quote:
The official Windows Server Core base image for containers

And that clears up that this image is the base image for containers that would work on Windows Server. Same for others, for example the dotnet-framework. Who doesn't know this one?

Oh, and to your curiosity, there is still a .NET SDK image as well that provides a base image for your build tool.

Quote:
which ones are more or less complete applications rather than primarily intended as base images.

Like I said, they all have their specialized features, there is Windows docker image, if that is what you mean. Comparing Ubuntu with Windows Server, or .NET framework is like comparing oranges to apple juice (get it?).

Seems like you have not been working on Windows environments lately, or perhaps you are a Linux guy, because that is pretty much clear the way Windows works.

Windows has some native app development frameworks, Win32, MFC, WinRT (Windows Runtime) and Universal Apps, and then there are some modern frameworks (older actually!) like .NET framework, .NET Core, .NET Standard, and much more... Then there are different flavors of Windows like Windows for consumers—the Windows we use—and Windows Server for workloads, think of that as Ubuntu Server, then there is Windows for IoT, Windows Mobile (dead almost), and whatnot...

Man, Windows is merely 2 years younger than this universe, and ever expanding. Smile | :)

I would recommend spending some time with Windows development environments and these names will make much more sense than they do right now.

This is something that I completely agree with, for beginners this can be helpful. Thumbs Up | :thumbsup:

I have a memory microSD card that says the disk is write protected. I used the diskpart command of the https://superuser.com/questions/818973/cannot-format-usb-flash-drive-everything-claims-its-write-protected tutorial page but I could not fix the error, does anyone know how to fix it ?

What does this have to do with writing code for Windows??

do not write code for windows but windows no supports microSD card fix, I am in need of software to fix microSD card.

Your question still has nothing to do with Windows Development, and Dave has already given you a link to find the answer.

In a LAN with many computers, only a few computers when I set static IP computer is not connected to the network but I set dynamic IP the computer works normally, how to fix this error ?

Assuming that you have got DHCP server in LAN which is responsible for automatic ip addresses assignement.

When you set static ip and its address is out of range of your DHCP, you can't connect to the internet.

I configured static IP is of course the full input already, you have not read my information carefully, in the LAN there are many computers set static IP works well but only a few machines can not set the static IP to Dynamic IP works, of course when I set a static IP that doesn't have duplicate IP but it still doesn't work

And what range of IP addresses is reserved for dynamic assignement (on DHCP server side)?
What IP are you trying to set manually?
What error message do you get?

In my opinion, when you set static IP addresses, you provoke IP address conflict

But you have not provided the information necessary. What are the actual values of the IP addresses that work and thos that do not, and what addresses are configured by the DHCP?

I am using a DrayTek Vigor 2925 modem, the LAN address range I set is as follows:
From address: 192.168.1.2-> 192.168.1.9: used for servers, cameras, timekeepers, ...
I use dynamic IP and static IP from the address: 192.168.1.10-> 192.168.1.210 = DHCP = enable server
When I set a static IP, the computer did not report an IP conflict if the IP was not used, only a few computers could not access the network when I set the static IP to any of the addresses in the range: 192.168.1.2-> 192.168.1.254, My company has 70 computers, including 4 computers I can not assign static IP, I do not understand why ? I have installed 4 new computers, but I can use it for about a month to get stuck

I suggest you contact the modem manufacturers for assistance. This question has nothing to do with Windows development or programming.

I think the operating system is more Windows than ADSL modem

That may be true, but it is still not a programming issue.

Have you tried disabling DHCP completely, for all computers, and using hard addresses alone for all devices? Remember, any third party anti-virus programs worth their salt have access to these hard addresses and will allow user access to particular features of their third-party interface which will target those addresses. And checking there will show, whether or not there was ever any error on the part of either Windows or the AV, any discrepancy that sounds like the type you're experiencing.

I login win7 with the "administrator" account and password: xxx, my computer is the server to share the printer to other computers on the LAN, if I change the password of the "Administrator" account then the computer Other computers on the LAN will not print. If I create a "PrinterShare" account and a yyy password to share the printer, when I log in to win7, there will be 2 accounts: "administrator" and "PrinterShare", I don't want to share the printer account when I log in appears, how do I do it ? or I use an "administrator" account that still shares the printer, but I am allowed to change the password as long as the computers on the LAN do not know my password when sharing the printer.

As Dave said, this is nothing to do with Windows development.

The article mentions Windows 10, but the same steps work for Windows 7 as well.
