    Restrict access to WinNT Cmd Line

    You can implement some restrictions from the System Policy Editor. Choose File->Open Registry, then Local User and there you can have a look at Shell, Windows NT Shell and System. All three contain a "Restrictions" element with a few possibilities. Restricting access to the command...

    Moving File from Unix to Win2000

    Does ASCII ftp on a single text file work fine? What about using ux2dos on your text files before the transfer (ux2dos, then compression, and finally transfer in binary mode). e.g. ux2dos myfile >workdir/myfile

    computer interrupted every 10 seconds

    Aren't you working with Windows XP? If you are, have a look at MS KB entry Q314056. It describes svchost.exe and explains how you can use tasklist /SVC to find the active services in each svchost.exe process. If you find the services in the CPU consuming svchost.exe, you might be able to find...

    Tab key not working properly

    I had a similar problem a few months ago. Unfortunately, I don't remember how I got rid of it. I think that the problem disappeared when I played with a few keys (Windows, Alt, hold, shift-lock and tab) or it was due to a specific application left in a given state. If I remember, I'll let you know.

    Command for checking opened files?

    I'd recommend to download lsof from ftp://vic.cc.purdue.edu/pub/tools/unix/lsof/lsof.tar.gz or ftp://vic.cc.purdue.edu/pub/tools/unix/lsof/lsof.tar.Z so you are sure to get the latest version directly from the source.

    defraging

    Depending on the way you copy the files from one disk to the other one, the files should be defragmented. If the files are copied one at a time, all its fragments will be read from the old disk and it will be written in one fragment on the new disk. A commercial defragmentation tool might do a...

    Hi, I have a script, named "scri

    This is only a guess, I am not sure about it. You are trying to have STDIN reference a given file and then you call script1. But in script1, we find this instruction: open STDIN, "/dev/tty" or warn "couldn't open /dev/tty $!\n";. Doesn't it force STDIN to the terminal's...

    networking

    That will depend on what this server is doing. Is it a file server, an application server? You should use the Performance Monitor to find where the bottleneck is (processor, RAM, disk(s), network), remove the bottleneck (mainly by adding new components or replacing them by faster ones) and...

    connection type

    Hi unixadmin, The "sh" process is probably the shell running the script (.profile or any other script) that launches "application". After starting "application", it stays sleeping until "application" terminates. If it doesn't have to do anything when...

    how to log invalid login attempts

    Have a look at loginlog. You can define LOGFAILURES in the file /etc/default/login (the default value is 5). All the unsuccessful login attempts after LOGFAILURES will be logged in /var/adm/loginlog (an ASCII file containing one record -or line- per attempt and including login name, tty and...

    Restarting Server.

    Personally, I wouldn't recommend to restart the server with such a frequency. I would suggest something between once a week and once a month (or only when it seems to be unstable). Rebooting is an easy workaround for memory leaks but if there are memory leaks, it would be much better to find...
