Hi all, Dave Burt mentioned the possibility of adding symlinks to the Dir class. http://www.sysinternals.com/ntw2k/source/misc.shtml#junction There is also Autrijus Tang''s symlink Perl module at http://search.cpan.org/~autrijus/Win32-Symlink-0.04/ Looks easy enough, but it only seems to work for directories, not regular files. Should we add this to the Directory class, or simply

This sounds like an advertisement, but I've got nothing to gain. Just thought you might like to know about this. If you're cloning a bunch of Windows boxes, you'll have a problem with SID's... they'll all be the same. That's a bad thing. Maybe you have a need to change a SID... perhaps a dual-boot box where you want the computer names and IP addresses to be the same. This

Hi, I should have win32-changenotify and win32-semaphore out this weekend at some point. Then, the next version of win32-file. And after that? I don''t know. What do you think we should tackle next? What interests you? Different mutex flavors? IE controllers? Exchange interfaces? I think we should probably look a little more at what Python has going forward, too. Just a

Hi all, I''m trying to get the allocation size of a file via a file handle (rather than its name). The example below works for FileNameInformation but I can''t get it to work as expected for FileStandardInformation. Here''s some sample code: # query_test.rb require ''windows/handle'' require ''windows/error'' include Windows::Handle

Hi, Hm, the string inserts are different, too. Any encoding issues? Your user name uses extended ASCII, too, right? Not sure if that''s significant or not. I''ve cc''d the win32utils-devel list to see if anyone has any ideas. Thanks, Dan botp wrote: > On 12/4/07, Daniel Berger <djberg96 at gmail.com> wrote: >> Can you tell us which record numbers in

Hi all, Sysinternals have just released a version of their autoruns command line tool that's capable of scanning an offline windows install for images configured to start automatically (very useful for tracking down malware). How likely is it that it could be made to run under wine on Ubuntu? I've got to the point where I have my NTFS partition mounted, I then issue the command: --- $

psexec util (from sysinternals) is a tool which allows to execute commands on a remote Windows machine. A command like that: psexec.exe \\192.168.1.147 -u Administrator -p password C:\test.bat would run C:\test.bat as administrator on a Windows workstation with IP address 192.168.1.147. Quite cool, you don't have to install anything additional (like SSH server) on Windows, and you can

Hello, Do you have tips or sample script code to deploy MSI (Firefox in my case) using script ? I miss my gpo software installation from Win2k/2003 :) Thanks !

Hi all, I''m going over win32-file this weekend. I''m creating instance methods for setting (or unsetting) the various file attributes. So, you can do something like: f = File.open("foo.txt") f.archive = true f.hidden = true f.close This works for the basic attributes, but it requires extra work for others. Specifically, I am having trouble trying to set the

Thanks But this is for demoting a PDC to a BDC. I've done that already. What I want to demote my BDCs to standalone server. I'll give a try to upromote.

Hi, I've got a simple PHP script which is using psexec from sysinternals to execute commands on a remote machine (which uses SMB under the hood). If I run it from DOS it works fine. If I run the same script via apache it hangs. Fired up Wireshark and had a look at what was going on. In the working version the treeconnect calls go to the IPC$ and then the ADMIN$ accounts on the remote machine.

Hi, I've setup samba 3.4.7 to use idmap_rid as per the documentation: idmap backend = rid:DOMAIN=500-100000000 idmap gid = 500-100000000 imap uid = 500-100000000 It seems to work for groups: wbinfo --group-info="domain admins" domain admins:x:100512 PsGetSid v1.43 - Translates SIDs to names and vice versa Copyright (C) 1999-2006 Mark Russinovich Sysinternals -

Dear list... In regards to recent upgrade in www.clamav.net to 0.88.3 and... ...as an example I've used this page to create a process where I can create my own clamav programs/stuff/etc... http://qmail.jms1.net/clamav-upgrade.shtml and so I would go to http://crash.fce.vutbr.cz/crash-hat/4/clamav/ and snag the source rpm that Petr made for Fedora 4. He hasn't updated yet (pretty sure

Hi everyone, in samba 4.5 changelog, it says that samba AD now supports tombstone reanimation. I've been used to ldbrename and ldbmodify to reanimate objects to keep objectSID, but if it is now officially supported, it would be better to use the proper way. Sysinternals tool adrestore [1] seems to be working properly (it does not restore most attributes, but this is expected since

Hello folks - back on April 2nd I asked why my NT 4.0 with SP4 computer wouldn't connect to my old copy of Samba (1.9.16p9), while my neighbour's NT 4.0 with SP3 computer did just fine. This was in the case of a read-write share that only myself and my neighbour had access to under our user names. A read-only share worked just fine on both our computers. Thanks to Herb Lewis & Jan

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I released rssh v2.0.4 today. It fixes bugs in the parser which affect quoted arguments in the config file, as well as the code which builds the vector for the arguments to the exec call. In the latter case, arguments which contain a space were treated as two sepearate args. The man page was also updated to include information about quoting values
