    Thanks guys! Actually I slapped a 128mb ram, for a total of 256mb ram, and it has seemed to fix the problem, directly or indirectly. It seems now I have regular cpu utilization while system is at idle (%1). anyhow, best $25 I have spent this year :) ================================================== Soliant - soliant@yahoo.com

    There is some API functions to access the eventlog, but right now I can't remember what they are called. You can also use a small utility called uptime.exe to see uptime on computers on your network. Just go to microsoft.com and search for "uptime.exe". - Anders Money talks, but all mine ever says is "Goodbye!"

    PWS IS IIS 4.0 (actually a subset). Unfortunately IIS 5.0 doesn't come in a scaled down PWS version so that's not an option. You should be able to get it working, though. Download from the NT Option Pack on Microsoft. I can post a link if you need it.

    You need to enable forwarding so that your DNS server queries a server upstream. Use your ISP's NS for your upstream provider and enable recursion. Cheers Mike

    Here I will tell you the most simple method to your question, use an win98 boot disk boot your computer,and use fdisk,it could create an partition larger than 2G,:) then create extend partition,and logic partition,but win2000 cd-disk,could boot from cd-room,you even didn't have to create a win98 boot disk,use your win2000 disk,but if you win2000 is pirate,you must need win98/winme boot disk ,then got into the /i386 directory,and type winnt or winnt32 to run your win2000 setup, :confused: I love php but asp is also good,so if you need it I could help you with both of them! Enjoy your programming!

    All that you should have to do is create new Web Site, via the IIS MMC snap-in; binding it to the IP that you give to the hostname, intranet.home.net IIS MMC -> Control Panel, Administrative Tools, Internet Services Manager Right click on the server name, choose new, website. A wizard will guide you through the rest of the process. You can select where the pages should be stored (we don't use inetpub for any of our sites, this stops script kiddies from defacing any sites should they "hack" you.)

    Is the webserver running on their LAN? If the webserver is a member of the domain, you can see what NT Groups the current user is member of, and then grant/deny the user access based on the NT Group... - Anders Money talks, but all mine ever says is "Goodbye!"

    All webservers that is running IIS have some database functionality. At least JET 3.5, which mean that if you use a Access 97 database you should be able to access that database even from an old NT4 with IIS4... - Anders Money talks, but all mine ever says is "Goodbye!"

    This might be news: But you can get corruption in a stable network with Win2000 clients throughout. It just happens sometimes. What has seemed to help sometimes is to just get everyone out of the VSS pool. When we have the most problems are when lots of people have things checked out keep VSS/VCC with VSS up all the time (i.e. during Crunch). Sometimes just having everyone exit will let VSS fix itself, and occasionally the Admin gets us all out and does maintenance on a Saturday.

    Does you want different web's for www.mydomain.com and anything.mydomain.com, but on the same ip-address? Then just read on... I don't have an IIS server installed on this machine, so I can't see the exact names of the menus and dialogs, but I hope you can understand what I mean. Just create 2 websites, on the server, that uses the same ip-address. Then in the properties for each website, you can add what "name" this site should respond to. In the one you write www.mydomain.com, and in the other website-properties you write anything.mydomain.com. That way the website only responds when a user ask for the domain it's configured for, and you can have several websites that shares a single ip-address... Hope it helps... - Anders Money talks, but all mine ever says is "Goodbye!"

    If the server is a domain controller, and the client logs on to that domain, you just add the user to the AD. If it'a a standalone server, you just fires up the user manager on the server, and makes a user with the same username and password as the user that logs on to the client, then the client can access shared resources on the server... - Anders Money talks, but all mine ever says is "Goodbye!"

    Assuming you mean 2000 Pro and not server, Login is the administrator. Settings->Control Panel->Users and Passwords, select your use. Properties->Group Membership. Change setting to Other (Administrators). Michael :-)

    IIS and other applications will need additional configuration to direct traffice appropriately to the intended websites. Cheers, -Erik ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ My thoughts are my own and reflect on no other.
