Thanks everyone, I wanted to get the site up quickly, so I just *switched* my configuration from DHCP to static and bought the Advanced DNS Management package from Verisgn. Thanks for all the tips though. Nick Parker

Yeah, I meant SMTP, sorry :) There is such service as a part of IIS on Win2k, and I'm tryng to send e-mail using CDO library, but whatever I do, it fails :( Anyway, thanx I'll try to do it as you suggested too :) Philip Patrick Web-site: www.stpworks.com "Two beer or not two beer?" Shakesbeer

I know this can be done in linux, but considering Windows doesn't have full support for raw sockets, I thought it cannot be done.

Hi, First of all, you cannot get system information remotely from a machine running Win 9x, unless of course you have some third party application installed on it. This is possible in Wi2k, and there are some utilities from the Win2k rescource kit, however I cannot remember the exact name of the utility. Look into ResKit CD, if you have one. :) Regards, Venet. -------- Black holes are where God divided by zero.(Steven Wright)
Contents of boot.ini should be changed automatically when installing another microsoft OS, so you shouldn't really need to worry about it. But it should look something like this: [operating systems] multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP Professional" /fastdetect multi(0)disk(1)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINNT="Microsoft Windows 2000 Advanced Server" /fastdetect You can change it to say anything you want though. There is another way to make a machine dual boot, by copying first 512 bits (boot sector) of the harddisk/partition that has Win2k AS, but that's a bit complicated really. :) Regards, Venet. -------- Black holes are where God divided by zero.(Steven Wright)

Surprisingly she hasn't complained yet; I made the change while she was at a friends house then I went and told my dad so if she had any problems she could speak to him about it. I don't think he was too happy to find out she left her monitor on 24/7. Finally, I can sleep in a somewhat darkened house :) James "Java is free - and worth every penny." - Christian Graus

Linux doesn't install on Windows partitions (what you call "drives" in your message), so the first thing to do is to delete your D: partition to make space for Linux (hope you didn't store anything important there yet). Next, read the Red Hat Installation Guide. During the installation, don't just click "OK" at every prompt, but read the help texts (in the left panel) and choose the correct options for your system. Don't use "Server" installation option, that will remove the existing Windows installation from your machine!

For your question you would have to state what kind of video file(s) you are looking at: WMx (whatever 'x' was - Windows Media "something"), MPG, MP4, RM or AVI (and whatever I forgot), and in case of AVI you'd have to tell at least what video codec was used. My guess is you're looking at AVI's compressed with a not-really-functioning codec, or maybe flash, but without any further information one could answer "42" and it would be correct.
This is probably in the workings of the (MSVC I presume) CRT memory manager. Have a look at the malloc/free (and its implementation functions) sources and you'll see likely causes. Basically, it doesn't give up memory to the OS right away. Disclaimer: This depends on the OS and version of the MS CRT! MSVC6+ using NT5+ uses the plain HeapAlloc API's where older versions do not, and IIRC it's only for allocations above/below a certain threshold.

The clear history has always worked for me. If it is still not working for you, aside from reinstalling IE, you could decrease the number of days that.it keeps page(s) in history from 20. HTH Nick Parker
