From what I've seen net send /DOMAIN:XXX, sends a message to all the computers in that domain. What I want is to send the message only to a few computers on the domain.
Imagine this situation: 3 users in 2 differente domains
User1@DomainA
User3@DomainB
How can user1 send a message to user3? Is this possible using net send?

Yikes, I thought that's what you were doing.
AFAIK, NET SEND will only let you target users in the sending machines domain. Or, broadcast to entire other domain or users of a specific server. It won't let you send to specific users in other domains. There is no work around for this other than using a different messaging app, Windows Messaging.

Hello,
Must I create a new Password Reset Disk every time I change my password?
Regarding Windows XP Professional.
Thanks,
Rich S.

Not really. There's a slew of utilities out there that will let you reset the password on any account without having the Administrator password.
This[^] is one I use a lot around my shop.
ERD Commander[^] is another one.

It is a good idea to do this method. You can also use third party utilities to reset password. If the utility is free, it is fine. But if the utilities is not free, then you have to pay for that software to rescue your system.

I thought I would ask this question here for some help.
I started to delete entries for "Winlogon.EXE" from my registry due to Ad/Spyware/virus on my machine (WinXP Media Center Ed, SP1).
What is the correct entry(entries) for this and where can I get the REAL winlogon.exe for my XP system?
Thanks,
Johnny

I believe that a repair installation of WIndows XP might replace the file.
If I was you, I would backup my data and reinstall the whole system, though. Its just not worth the time spent searching for all the crap that malware installs.
I always have a HDD-image ready, along with a Knoppix-CD, to simply "reinstall" my OS, drivers and all the apps/tools that I need. I usually only have 3 or 4 apps to reinstall after that.
Cheers,
Sebastian

Try to go to command prompt and use command SFC (System File Checker). Type the following command sfc /scannow and press enter button.
I never don't that before but I hope it might solve your problem.

Hi, can any one give me a detail explaination about the difference of:
- Local security policy.
- Group policiy (using gpedit.msc).
- Security template (using mmc to add template and configuration analysis).
I don't know which one is suitable for me to configure my windows environment. I need a concept about each item.

You won't be much better off with the short explaination you get from a forum post. The Windows XP Resource Kit devots entire chapters to each of these questions.
It's worth the $40...Click[^]

All of this is explained in the Windows XP Resource Kit. I highly suggest picking it up.

Can someone explain me why in the windows header file resource.h not only the (e.g) MENU name is defined but is also given a ID number
eg.
#define IDR_MENU 101
That is: why is #define IDR_MENU
not sufficient: with this the MENU name will be defined en then it can be used in the .cpp file as well as in the resource file .......
|
|
|
|
|
Top-level resources can be identified either by number or using a string. Controls on a dialog must always have a numeric identifier. The resource (.rc) file is run through a preprocessor, the same as a .cpp file is. The preprocessor substitutes tokens for their definitions, so any use of IDR_MENU is replaced by the number 101.
Any resources whose identifier is still a string after the preprocessor pass will end up in the final binary using that string, so if you deleted the IDR_MENU definition from resource.h entirely, you would then have to use the versions of resource loading functions that accept a string argument. The core Win32 API only offers resource-loading functions that accept a string argument; to use a numeric identifier you must use the MAKEINTRESOURCE macro.
If you just had #define IDR_MENU that would tell the preprocessor - both the resource file preprocessor and the C++ preprocessor - to replace all instances of IDR_MENU with an empty string. That would not compile.
Stability. What an interesting concept. -- Chris Maunder

I'm a SysAdmin at a small company here in Minneapolis. I have written a VBScript that automates some FTP functions and does some file housekeeping after the downloaded files are processed by the ERP EDI system. The script runs on a W2K Server.
I found the XYNTService (codeproject.com/system/XYNTService.asp) and it would be the perfect fail safe to restart the script in case it fails when I'm not around to read the email notification I set up in the event the script fails.
Small problem - it doesn't seem to like .vbs's. I've tested it with executables and it works fine.
Anybody got any thought on this?

After skimming the XYNTService article, I think that it only runs executables. Perhaps you can change the call to your VBS file to "CMD.EXE /Q <your vbs file>" and have the script run from the shell.
I hope that works for you....

Great idea Curtis but no soap. Maybe I'll try and complie the vbs into an exe and see waht happens.
