Hi, I wrote a code that will poll with active directory for the changed user attributes. If my code find that there is any change (say for ex: change is for telephone number for one user), my code will fetch the latest attributes from active directory and update my application datanbase with it. This I am achieving based on the LDAP DN for all users in my app database. So here I want to know, if I change the CN for a group in active directory, how can I get this update. My code doesnt able to fetch this CN itself (as my app dtabase is having old CN). How can I acheive this? Thanks in advance! -Yoyo

Hi, For the past half an hour i was struggling with IIS6 trying to force all incoming requests to be handled by asp.net (aspnet_isapi.dll). In IIS5, you had to open IIS manager and from website properties select "Home directory/Configuration/Mapping" add a new extension * and point to : C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v1.1.4322\aspnet_isapi.dll According to help topic it should be the same for IIS6, but when i tried to put * or .* it didn't accept it , and all what i was getting is an error "Wrong extension format". After almost half an hour i finally figured out that it shoud be added in a bit different way: from website properties select "Home directory/Configuration/Mapping" and choose Insert instead of Add, under "Executable" enter path to aspnet_isapi.dll and uncheck "Verify that file exists", otherwise it wont work for folders. Unfortunately this also doesnt help. In Microsoft's support site (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/326965/en-us) they say to update the existing list of MIME types. I did that also, but unfortunately this also does not solve the problem. Please help me out if you have any solution. You can reach me at vishvesh888@hotmail.com or vishveshraiter@gmail.com Thanks Vishvesh Raiter

Hey Guys, Is there any alogrithm or source code in C/C++ to test the RAM. I want to test the RAM present in any system. I need to test it considering the paging system present. Thanks, -Tom

Ya, Thanks, I re-installed VS .NET 2003 fully & I found all of them. -Tom

Hi Guys, Where can I get "shobjidl.h" & "atlstr.h" files. Actually I downloaded one of the demo project from this forum. But when I compile it says 'Cannot open shobjidl.h, & atlstr.h' I have searched net but nowhere I found them. Some where I read that atlstr.h can be found in VS .NET . But still didnt get any success. I downloaded WTL 7.0 & 7.1 from microsoft site. But it does not contain these files. Can any body out there to help me. Please give me some downlodable site/ dump Thanks in advance. -Tom

Hi, Anybody knows about software modems. Or any helpful links to know about? Actually my objective is to test the (already present)software modem in my system. Diagnostics purpose. Thanks Tom

Hi All, I want to write software modems(VC++/MFC/SDK). Please let me know if any algorithm or links are available with you. Thanks

Hi Frenz, I would like to know how we use WMI in VC++. I have seen article from codeproject itself; but found not good enough to get complete info about it. If links are there please let me know. Thanx -Tom

Hi All, A great help from this forum. Thanx all. I would like to know how BIOS on power ON detects HDD? It would be better if algo is available. Also what programming language we should use to program & run at boot time. Thanx Tom

Ya mike. It is possible to execute all sorts of programs even bfor OS loads but condition is, no OS dependencies like WIn API`s etc. -Try to get the things you like, else you will be forced to like the things you get! Cheers Tom;)

Hi, What exactly you mean to say by, "before windows running"? What I understood is you are having your exe(independent of any API`s or DOS help) and you want to execute it. Answer for this is: Your exe should be totally using BIOS calls,cuz at this time no OS has been loaded neither Winpx nor DOS..rt?. So you can make run your exe by modifying MBR code(boot-loader) Cheers Tom

Hi, Updates are possible due to type of adapter (display adapters) you are using. Check it out, which display adapter you are using. Find out in market your relevant adapter & install it. Nextime when you boot system it will update your display automatically.

Hi, Why dont you try Nortons utility symante. I dont rem the name; but I am very sure that it DO provide one utility to do what you exactly wanted.

Hi, You are confusing between boot-loader & OS. (1) Bootloader is the initial stage program which will ultimately load final OS. It is of fixed size(512 bytes). But if your boot-loader goes beyond this size you can cut this in pieces leaving the intent of bootloader intact. Boot -loader is basically written in assembly(8086 or higher). (2) Os is....you know what it is. So once you power ON your system; it will perform normal BIOS routines & then cheks for boot sequence. According to boot sequence it will verify first sector (512 bytes)for validity & if it is valid it will load that sector in RAM. And later pass control to it. Here starts the job of boot-loader which should take care of loading all imp files reqd for loading OS ultimately. if you have more doubts feel free to contact me.

Hi guys, I would like to know how one can write his own boot-loader(for HDD) so that when system boot: (1) It will first search my exe in C:\ (2) Load it to some location (3) CPU will execute it (4) Then again it will proceed normally ;like giving user OS menu option etc Please help me Thanx in advance Tom
