In my opinion, NO. Because you will replace the folder Program Files on the second installation of the operating system. And there are many file that are replace by the latest one.

You know when you try to grab stuff from SourceSafe, first you need to be granted access to "srcsafe.ini" file. Sharing the file on local intranet can be done by configuring file share. What if you want to access file over unsecured connection/Internet?
Any pointer? Thanks.

You'd have to host it on a server on the Internet, with a fixed IP address or dynamic DNS registration, with the file sharing ports open, as a file share. This is a pretty bad idea.
I suggest you look into Virtual Private Networks, at adapters such as SourceOffSite[^], or replacement source control solutions such as Vault[^]. I'd recommend one of the latter two because Windows file sharing performance is pretty poor over a slow link.
No, I don't work for SourceGear, but I'm a satisfied user of Vault, which works great over HTTPS over the Internet (maximum speed 256Kbps because both ends are on ADSL with 256Kbps upload speed).
Stability. What an interesting concept. -- Chris Maunder

I have a CD with my OLD mail in OE 5. I am right now in Windows XP machine with OE 6.
I tried to import the old mails, and I dont see 'Outlook Express 5' in the import options....
Any idea / solution.. other than changing my PC???

I think you should try first.
1. In winxp create a test account and log on it.
2. Try to use Outlook Express 6 to import your message. If it is possible they do it at your account.

I have a question to you too, how do you backup your OE5 message on the CDROM?

1. Locate the ***.dbx files on your computer, where *** corresponds to the names of all of the message folders in OE.
2. Burn them to a CD.
Many months ago I was faced with the problem of recovering emails after reinstalling Windows. Thanks to a number of people here I was able to save them by first saving these files to another drive, then copying them back to the OE folder after the reinstallation. Deleting the Folders.dbx file caused OE6 to rebuild its index and all of my old emails magically reappeared.
Whether this technique will work (copying files) between two different versions of OE I don't know - the .dbx file format may have changed too much.

Yes, that is the techniqe that I use to back up my e-mail too. I suggest that don't copy directly to replace the .dbx file because this method doesn't work. Use an import wizard that design by outlook express instead.

In my opinion, OE5 message should import to any test machine with windows 2000 prof. fresh install because it has OE5. Then upgrade OE5 on the test machine to OE6 then back up the message again. This method could use your message in windows xp pro. with OE6.

What do you mean? It doesn't mean that you have to purchase software and new machine to do that. If your friend have a test machine for windows 2kpro then ask him/her to create user account for you and try to work as the above method.

I will take this as a last option, if I get anything else as a better option, I will have to try that first

Hi, I just learn something new from my teacher about lock the computer using the shortcut. The technique is create the schortcut from scratch then type the following command in the command textbox: rundll32.exe user32.dll, LockWorkStation and the other technique to shutdown computer or restart computer. My question is: are there any document that will specify the argument of the command rundll32.exe user32.dll, for restart, shutdown, restart in MSDOS mode, restart in safe-mode, log off the user...? I want to do the above action but I don't how to do it because I don't know the argement that use to perform these above action.

Don't do that. Only call functions with rundll32 that were made to be called that way.
See this blog entry[^] and read the section "Rundll32.exe entry points"

I ran ad-aware on my system because my browser seemed to be crashing every once in a while for no apparent reason. Once the spyware was cleaned up all of the sudden the icons on my desktop were gone. What's up with that?
I went into the desktop folder in the windows explorer and they're all there, but they're not showing up on the desktop itself.
Any ideas?

Which operating system that you use? If you use windows xp or 2k make sure that you check in the correct profile. On the other hand, try to check the option of Ad-Aware application whether it is hide any object from the user. I used to run this program too but never have the problem like that. Try to restart your computer again.

It's winxp. I did a virus scan and restarted my computer several times. I'll check the ad-aware settings, but it seems to me they should know you wouldn't ever want your desktop items to be hidden.

XP has a setting to not show any icons on the desktop. To toggle it: Right-click the desktop->Arrange Icons By->Show Desktop Icons

Hi, I can create morphix boot linux CDROM[^] and I also can create boot windows CDROM using Bart PE[^]. And now I want to create a boot CDROM for linux Red hat and Suse. Does any one know any resource to do that??? Because I don't want to install it on my small hard disk drive.

you can download the SuSE 9.2 (i think it's out already) LiveCD off SuSE's website or ftp servers.

redhat is now deadrat... they don't have a community edition of redhat linux. what they did was to create a new distribution called fedora core which is largely community driven. you can find that at fedora.redhat.com. my personal experience of fedora has been that fc1 (fedora core 1) was very unstable, and fc2 is a lot more stable. the only problem with fedora is that it ships without support for mp3's, movies, etc. that's why something like suse (my favourite) or mandrake linux are better. and possbily easier to install and use...
but back to the subject of live cds, i don't think fedora has a live cd... you can check out their site and see if they do (and let me know if they do). mandrake i know has a live cd too (called mandrake move).

Thank you very much for your idea, I also found knoppix linux liveCD on the internet too. The reason that I need the live CD because I want to study linux without install it on my machine because i have a small hard disk drive. Hope that red hat will have liveCD in the future.
