I have a Java 10 application on Windows Server 2016 which is continually writing to a file using java.util.logging. In Windows File Explorer, the "Last modified" and "Size" columns do not update. Pressing [F5] does not update the details. DOS DIR gives the same incorrect answer. Right Click > Properties > Details gives an even different (and older) answer. Only running DOS TYPE or opening/closing (without save) in Notepad on the file, seems to cause File Explorer and DOS DIR to update. I assume the Java code is correct with respect to flush() as the same classes on Java 8 on Windows Server

So I have Windows Server 2016 TP5 and I'm playing around with the containers. I am able to do basic docker tasks fine. I'm trying to figure out how to containerize some of our IIS-hosted web applications. Thing is, we usually use integrated authentication for the DB and use domain service accounts for the app pool. I currently don't have a test VM (that is in a domain) so I can't test if this will work inside a container. If the host is joined to an AD domain, are its containers also part of the domain? Can I still run processes using domain accounts? EDIT: Also, if I specify the "USER" in the

I need to use Docker / Windows containers on Windows 2016 Server and prepare it Windows applications to run on it. Configuring Windows via Powershell just is not as convenient though as it is on Ubuntu, especially if you never worked with Windows Server really and need to learn all the Powershell commands ;) Is there a way to access a Windows Container via GUI? It's possible with Docker, Ubuntu, VNC: Can you run GUI apps in a docker container? Wondering if anything similar can be done for Windows Containers? (I am working on-premise, not using Azure. Found a similar but unanswered question

I try to run the Visual Studio Remote Debugger in a Windows Container on Windows Server 2016 TP4 . Since it runs inside a container, there is no UI. I try to run the remote debugger via: .\msvsmon.exe /nostatus /silent /nosecuritywarn /nofirewallwarn /noclrwarn /port 4020 I am executing the above as administrator user (nt authority\system). This works fine on the host computer, but it does not work inside the container. The Windows event log shows the following error event. Msvsmon was unable to start a server named "`6D2D071453C5:4020`". The following error occurred: The parameter is

Are there any update to date guides on how to use Linux containers in Docker EE for Windows Server 2016? All guides I have found (such as this one ) are using the preview edition which from what I can tell is two major releases and 2 years out of date. An additional problem I have is that I have to download and install docker manually as the server doesn't have a direct internet connection. Container images will be downloaded via Artifactory. I don't know of any updated guides, but I have come up with the following from various sources (sources in the bottom), which is confirmed to work for
