Handy, but not the same as retrieving the password. There are a lot of products to reset it, but none I've found to learn what the existing password is. Sometimes you don't want to leave tracks - like the time I modified my boss' account to report to his boss every time he spent work hours playing video games - and changing the password is rather obvious.

What do you mean by printable list? Do you need it in a file like Ms word...? The command line reference also have in your windows help file (windows 2000). You can check it without access to the internet.

You could use the following batch file to dump the output of dos help into a manual. Once you have the file, there's a little cleanup to do, since some of the original lines from help wrap, feeding some unexpected words to the help command. Type 'help' at the command prompt to see what I mean.
I would also use search and replace to put a newline character everywhere I see the separator line.

Hey guys,
Im looking to get a laptop after xmas and after a lot of thought have narrowed the choice down to 3. Anyone have any thoughts, opinions or use either the Asus W1000na, Toshiba Qosmio F10/100 or the Toshiba Qosmio G10/G00? Any good/bad experiences with them? Im in Australia and all 3 models have just been released. Asus is about $3500AUD, Toshiba F10 is about $4500AUD and G10 is about $5500AUD. Thanks

your not choosing between the same category of laptops, there's a $2000 difference between them.
what do the $5500 machine offer more than the $3500 one ?
depending on your needs, I would go for the one that either offer the best performance right not, or one that can be upgraded easilly in the future.

Hi,
I was wondering if anyone knows a way to set the desktop color in C#. I saw you can use the SetSysColors function in C++, but the parameters don't seem work for C#. If anyone knows how to do this I'd be very appreciative!
Thanks,

Hi, I found that the following command
NET USE lptX: \\print_server_name\printer_share_name where X is the port number.
is use to connect from windows 3.x and OS/2 operating system to use the printer on the print server. I have two computer in my lab both are windows 2000 pro. The first computer have the printer and share on the network. Then I use the second printer to connect and get the share resource (printer) from the first computer. I know that to use the printer over the network I have to add the printer via printer wizard, but I don't do that. I want to use the command line instead. Then I use the following command:
NET USE lpt1: \\pro\hpdj840c
Then it return the information that the command is completed successfully. So I return to control panel to check the printer, but I could not see any printer display in the printer folder. I wonder why I could not see it, because I alread found that the command was sucessfully. Does anyone have any idea about that????

 This may not be the right place to post this but have a look at it
recently my previous hard disk failed and i replaced it with a new one and i installed windows 2000 pro service pack 4,
i retrived my data from the faulty drive and was doing good till i start connecting to the net;
now i get the error svchost.exe the referenced memory could not be accessed.
i searched and seen many articles explaining what the cause might be , some suggest a virus or worm,
others may be installing the microsoft security patch or downloading the norton tools for fixing the blaster
or welch worm might fix the problem, the microsoft web site suggests editing the registry might solve the problem.
I have a theory how this might have been caused
I first copied the data from the faulty drive on my friends pc; maybe i got the virus from there and i connected the previous
drive to my pc at home so may be if it's a virus thats where i got it from.
Now i have the following symptoms
when i connect to the internet the error message appears and i closed the svchost.exe
no system crash but various odd things showed up i could not copy/paste, move files, and cliking on a URL and
open in a new window could not work, add/remove programs in control panel looked funny, Norton Anti Virus 2004 was disabled
could not launch it again even after i rebotted, the regedit.exe and regedt32.exe don't work till now ,wasn't able to
disconnect i had to manually remove the phone line or restart the computer.windows update could not work.....
After the first encounter with the error message i rebooted the computer and start connecting again then i saw that
the domain field in the connection settings was empty i retyped the server and got connected again boom!!! i see the error
message again now all the symptoms show up again
if i don't connect some of the problems still persist as Norton couldn't start, regedit and regedt32 don't work
In the Middle of connection i see the error message that says internet explorer generated errors and stuff
then when i say don't send a new IE window is launched
Then i downloaded Windows2000-KB823980 security patch as i start to excute the program it exits as soon as it starts
then i downloaded windows2000-KB833330 and i excute it it starts and suddenly exits.
now i see a new message that says your registry size is low increase the registry size it was 18Mb now i made it to 20MB
still no change
I really tried everything;
-Editing the registry is impossible since regedt32 and regedit don't work
maybe i was thinking of writing a program to modify the regstry keys but i am not sure if the suggestion really works,
or i might be messing up the registry by the program i write (VC6)
-i downloaded the norton tools and scanned for the blaster and welch still no infection.
-i unistalled and reinstalled the Norton Anti Virus still no change Norton could not be Activated and Excuted
What is really happening ?? Does any one has any Ideas ??? Pls Help

Yes, that is the right place that you post this thread.

Of course, according to my experience, your computer is infect with w32.blaster.worm[^]. To solve this problem, try to keep your document away in the safe place. Then go to any PC that is not infect with the virus and download the following files step by step:
1. Download security patch KB823980[^].
2. Download security patch KB824146[^].
3. Download MS03-026 scanner tool[^]. This tool is used to verfiy that you install the above security patch success or not.
4. Donwload Blaster remove tool[^] from norton website.
Then copy all of these files to the infect computer via CDROM. Do not connect your infect computer to the network or the internet. Then try to install the security patch one by one as I order in the list. If it is not install in the normal mode, try to restart your computer in the safe mode and install the security patch one by one follow by the list that I order for you.

Try to use this tool as the last step, it is optional. When the virus was first spread on the interent Microsoft just inform the above security patch. But the last patch also helpful too.

That is the symthom that your computer infect with the virus. Remember for further challenges.
Remember that in windows xp, when it infect and after you clean it, it alwasy display report that virus is captured and remove. But in windows 2000 sometime it display, but some time it is not. So after you perform these 4 steps successfully, then try to check that the copy/paste function in windows explorer is working or not... your anti-virus is running or not... if it is working than it mean that your computer is rescure from the virus. Try to run windows update, office update and virus definition update regalurly to protect your computer from virus attack.
Good luck

I did the steps u recommended that is
i downloaded the patches u pointed out in an isolated labtop burned them to
a cd then when i tried to install them it failed then i switched to safe mode and
installed the patches and i ran the scanner tool it says failed to initialize socket or so
but after that i scanned for the worm using the blaster worm removal tool still
no change one thing i noticed after i installed the 2nd patch in windows start
up is a message box saying svchost.exe the program is currently in use or some similar message.
Even after scanning my pc and Norton claims that there is no worm; i can not see
contents of program files and windows in normal mode control panel's add/remove programs
is corrupted, can not open regedit and regedt32, what is happening really ???
i wonder if it is only the blaster worm ???!!!
In the task manager i saw "SWchost.exe" not "svchost.exe" and i killed the process
i also see cool.exe created when i tried to open windows folder what is cool.exe and SWchost.exe???
I have sophos anti virus should i install it instead of norton,should i be installing any
fire walls like zonealarm or what ?? why am i not able to see contents of my folders???

I finally found out the problem m pc is infected with the Dumaru virus and i removed it using the norton and sophos tools but the problems still persist i.e folders not showing contents and so on....
Any further updates

It's possible that the virus has corrupted your files beyond recovery. One last-ditch approach would be to reinstall Win2K on the new drive (to ensure an undamaged configuration) and install your antivirus software on it. Make sure the AV software is fully updated and working correctly. Then shut down and add the old drive as a secondary hard drive. On startup, nothing on that drive should be executed at boot up, so any viruses on it will be inactive. You can then scan the drive and let the AV software repair or delete and infected files there, after which it should be safe to copy the files that survive to the new drive. You can then remove the second drive and trash it.
This assumes, of course, that the old drive is still functional enough to run for a little while. If not, you're probably out of luck.

Because you are using windows 2000 I'm not sure too but if your are using windows xp pro, you should use command SFC /scannow from the command prompt. This command will check your system file and repaire any system file that is corrupt.

Remember that next time if you think that you computer affect with the virus, the most importance thing is search for the virus name. Sometime our anti-virus is just detect the virus but could not clean/delete it. Because some virus need the special method or tool to delete it, you should find any method to detect for the virus name then search it on the internet about the method to clean it.

I have an old Windows NT 4.0 Server system that is finally reaching the limits of its usefulness, and I would like to upgrade it to Server 2003. The Server is currently responsible for the following tasks in my network:
- Domain Controller
- Web Server
- File Server
- Print Server
During the upgrade, I would like to replace the current 60gb drive with a new 160gb drive and a more sensible partition layout, so I'm guessing that an "upgrade" is not really the way to go - I think I'm looking at a clean install.
My biggset problem is how to preserve the existing domain so that clients do not lose their profile settings. Any suggestions on how to perform this upgrade would be very welcome!
Thanks.

If you can not perform an upgrade but want a clean install on the same hardware your only choise is:
Upgrade the NT 4 to win2003.
Install another machine with win2003 and add it as domain controller.
Transfer all responsebilities for the domain to the new server.
Reinstall the original server with win2003, and add it as domain controller, and transfer all responsibilities for the domain to it.
Shut down the temp server, and you'r done

Thanks for the quick reply!
I thought about making a backup domain controller when I was in the shower earlier, but I'd already posted the message!
Fortunately, I have a spare computer that I can use for such a purpose. I think I'll set it up to run alongside the existing server and then slowly move services (eg. web, email, domain control) onto the new box. Eventually I should be able to unplug the original server ad be done.
The current server is actually an old Pentium 2 (333mhz, 256mb), so a slightly newer, more powerful computer might not be a bad idea anyway....

I think this point a little bit difficult do with file sharing. According to my experience, i rarely use one server with multi purpose. Whether you have a new server and configure as additional domain controller, you could only replicate an object in active directory. But you could not move the file from one DC to another DC. Just moving, you could do that but it will lost its permission and you have to reassign the permission to file and folder especially you will have a problem with roaming profile, home direcotry and folder redirection... of each user.

This is the problem, you use one DC to handle many task, especially the file server. This is the most complicate task that you need to handle with. According to my experience, i used to seperate to multi server which handle a difference task. It any server that is down or need to maintenance, it won't impact to the other server.

Anyone know what app controls the special buttons on Inspirons (specifically 8500 but its probably universal) I'm working on my dad's computer and I think I disabled it shutting down anything I didn't recognize. I don't want to run down the list and just run anything. Any help would be appreciated.
[EDIT]Not sure what it was but i think it was DSentry. All I had to do was re-enable it in msconfig and reboot for those that may have the same problem.

I read the book from MCSE training kit Microsoft windows 2000 professional (Published by Microsoft Press). In chapter 11 about network printing it said that in the workgroup environment the printer could handle only 10 concurrent user. That make me think about the printer at my office. Sometime it could not print out, I don't know why but might be become from this issue (insufficient printer memory). My question is, are there any log that record which user print to the specify printer on the network? if it is possible then it is a good way for me to estimate how many time that user print on that printer and easy for me to manage the printer too.
