I've heard that this isn't possible because you need to have the Windows Server OS installed, but that seems kind of ridiculous because how would you set up a local development environment? Anyway, curious if this is possible. Exlcuding Windows Server OS', IIS6 needs Windows XP Pro 64-bit and IIS7 needs Vista. A thread on the Microsoft IIS website also says you can, as 64-bit WinXP Pro comes with IIS6. This page says you cannot. EDIT: Clarification: kernel-wise Windows XP 64-bit is 2003 for all intents and IIS related purposes. There are also some hacky methods to install IIS5 on XP Home, but

We use both Examdiff and Kdiff3 to view Mercurial changes. Just add this to .hgrc : [extdiff] cmd.kdiff3 = cmd.examdiff = C:\Program Files\ExamDiff Pro\ExamDiff.exe And then you can type hg examdiff or hg diff3 to see a complete diff of all your changes. What I would like is to do the same to see a "before and after" of files for a given changeset that was checked in by someone else. I know you can type hg log to see all changesets and then hg log -vprXX to see a text diff, but that's too hard for my GUI preferring eyes. Anyone know how to the equivalent with the GUI tools? Can't use just use

Our application uses bunch of WMI calls. When using guest account connecting to local WMI server fails with ACCESS_DENIED, this works fine with user account and above. How to access WMI server under guest account? I added guest account to allow full access using WMIMGMT.MSC but still I am getting access denied errors. Any suggetions? Are you sure you want to give the guest account WMI remote access? I'm not sure the security implications of that... Anyways, I think you'll need to give remote DCOM access for the guest account on the target machine. (It's been a long time for me on this one so I

I'm following the tutorial: http://zetcode.com/tutorials/gtktutorial/firstprograms/ It works but each time I double click on the executable,there is a console which I don't want it there. How do I get rid of that console? Platform: windows XP. BTW I also have this trouble when right click on the icon: GLib-WARNING **: g_main_context_check() called recursively from within a source's check() or prepare() member. Is there anyone familiar with this? When you link, use the argument -mwindows gcc -o simple simple.c `pkg-config --libs --cflags gtk+-2.0` -mwindows The console opens then an application

I have a problem with output Unicode in Windows XP console. (Microsoft Windows XP [Version 5.1.2600]) First code is that(from http://www.siao2.com/2008/03/18/8306597.aspx ) #include #include #include int main(void) { _setmode(_fileno(stdout), _O_U16TEXT); wprintf(L"\x043a\x043e\x0448\x043a\x0430 \x65e5\x672c\x56fd\n"); wprintf(L"èéøÞǽлљΣæča\n"); wprintf(L"ぐႢ\n"); wprintf(L"\x3050\x10a0\n"); return 0; } My codepage is 65001(CP_UTF8). Excep Ⴂ, every letter look good. But Ⴂ is look like square. Console's default font 'Lucida Console' doesn't have font for that letter. So, I downloaded some other

Is there a way to create a user in Windows XP via Batch Script and even assign it administrator/limited user value? Suppose the username is rased and password is pAsS net user rased pAsS /add net localgroup administrators rased /add here user is added under administrators group. Yes, you can create a user by running net user USERNAME PASSWORD /add (omit the PASSWORD if you do not wish to have a password for this account, use * for PASSWORD to require the user to enter a password at run time). This creates a "limited user"; if you wish to make the new user an administrator, run net localgroup

Does anyone know of a good way to do remote administration of a Windows XP machine using just the command line? At the moment the only things it needs to do is to be able to install applications/patches, and transfer files to and from the machine, and installing registry patches would be nice as well. Currently we use a horrible hacked together solution that uses NetMeeting, in the past I've thrown together a proof of concept using SSH for windows (at the time windows 2000) but it didn't work to my satisfaction and was pretty buggy. Which was probably the result of the SSH Daemon I was running

Is there a way to obtain PCI coordinates (bus/slot/function numbers) of devices by using Windows c/c++ API (e.g PnP Configuration Manager API)? I already know how to do it in kernel mode, I need an user-mode solution. My target system is Windows XP-32 bit. I've eventually found a simple solution (it was just a matter of digging into MSDN). This minimal code finds the device's PCI coordinates in terms of bus/slot/function: DWORD bus, addr, slot, func; HDEVINFO h; // Obtained by SetupDiGetClassDevs SP_DEVINFO_DATA d; // Filled by SetupDiGetDeviceInterfaceDetail SetupDiGetDeviceRegistryProperty(h

I've built a RCP-based application, and one of my users running on Windows XP, Sun JVM 1.6.0_12 had a full application crash. After the app was running for two days (and this is not a new version or anything), he got the nice gray JVM force exit box, with exit code=1073807364. He was away from the machine at the time, and the only thing I can find near that time in the application logs was some communication with the database (SQL Server by way of Hibernate). There's no hs_ files or anything similar as far as I can tell. Web searching found a bunch of crash reports with that exit code in a
