Bridges and switches operate principally at Layer 2 of the OSI reference model. As such, they are widely referred to as data-link layer devices. Bridges became commercially available in the early 1980s. At the time of their introduction, bridges connected and enabled packet forwarding between homogeneous networks. More recently, bridging between different networks also has been defined and… Read More »
This article describes how to restrict Internet Mail from users by filtering messages in the Internet Mail Service connector. When you select this option, all internal users in the organization who use that Internet Mail Service Connector for Internet mail delivery are affected.
You can enable the CD-ROM autorun function by changing this registry setting, this will stop applications from auto launching when you insert a CD-ROM disc into your drive.
This function will allow you to change the extension of files within a specified folder. You can either change the name of all files, or files with a specified extension. A reference to the Scripting Runtime is required. See code comments for details and example.
App.Path returns a string with the “\” character at the end if the path is the root drive (e.g., “C:\”) but without that character if it isn’t (e.g., “C:\Program Files”). Most of the time we need the “\” at the end, so this function saves you the inconvenience of adding it every time.
As with Windows NT, Windows 2000 has an ‘Administrative Tools’ folder on the Start Menu. This folder contains powerful administration utilities and therefore can be hidden to avoid accidental use.
First of all, edbutil /d /r (Exchange 4.0 and 5.0) or eseutil /p (Exchange 5.5) is strictly a last resort for repairing a database file: it fixes only low-level database corruption (bad pages). The isinteg -fix command works at the information store level, fixing objects, schemes, and other high-level data/structure problems. If for some reason you don’t have a backup to restore from or… Read More »
Mtools is a public domain collection of tools to allow Unix systems to manipulate MS-DOS files: read, write, and move around files on an MS-DOS filesystem
The Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) model began as a reference model, but has since been implemented. It was created by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) to provide a logical framework for how data communication processes should interact across networks. Standards were created for the computer industry allowing different networks to work together efficiently.
The sequence of events the bootstrap code follows to find the image follows.
