Hi, Check out Advanced Windows by Jeffry Ricter. MS Press. HTH. srinidhi.

Yes, thank you - I found this method useful yesterday. Instead of killing NTVDM process - I kill wowexec (all resources are freed, too). I wonder which method is more correct? Regards Bartek

Thanks. I think that is what we have decided to do. Unfortunantly, to do that authentication from 95/98 does not appear to be straight forward, and might involve the use of the old 16 bit network api.

Yup it's win2k. That fixed it. Thanks Josh josh@that-guy.net

ApplicationGoo looks like version resource stored in registry, at least on my machine. Have no idea what they're using it for. Maybe for comparing currently executing image with the one executed before? Tomasz Sowinski -- http://www.shooltz.com

It should exists the following file: "folder.htt" on every folder you customized. (That's on Windows 2000, on my computer I succeeded to find it only in Program Files). Check out some Dino Esposito articles, he's the web/script guy for Explorer (and not only). MSDN (online or not), MSJ ... see what you can find. Sardaukar

Edit your system.ini file so the [boot] section contains this line shell=explorer.exe You'll need to boot from your Me startup disk (or other disk with DOS on it) since AFAIK you can't boot from the HD and stop at the command prompt anymore in Me. :mad: --Mike-- http://home.inreach.com/mdunn/ #include "buffy_sig"

What kind of a third party program is it? I haven't tried this, how about posting a message to the third party program using "PostMessage(...)" with the WM_QUIT parameter when you get the shutdown message from the SCM?

hi there again,:) I got it worked. I just was lazy to check whether it worked with "/Every:M,T,W,T,F,S". Now it is working fine with the given options. Earlier I gave the "/Every:Mo,Tu,We.." So it didnt work. But whats surprising is that why it doesnt workout with "Start /DC:\Program Files\rksupport\Shutdown.exe /L /Y /C".:confused: Now can u help me how to write a script and execute it? I want to send all the users connected a message 10 minutes and 5 min before shutting down the server. SAI
