A software package that I adm (CAD) uses a usercust variable to point to a location that is used to store user customizations. I wanted to make them portable(available at other machines) so I set it up as a 'user variable' (ie USERCUST=\\server\cust_dir\%USERNAME%. This works for the current...

Thanks 1stitman and bcastner, fast reply.... Setx allows command line manipulation of variables and reg entries. How would I use it to change the default user variable that all current and future users would have? Thanks,

win2000 How do I set up a user variable that will be used in all current and future profiles(logins)? I tried a system variable but it does not seem to pickup the %USERNAME% variable. Also tried adding to registry in key_user\.default\environment a new reg_expand_sz, but this was not used...

I need to determine if similar consecutive lines exsist. ie. lines 3,4 lines 6,7 12345r#1 11234r#1 11123r#1.mi 11123r#1 12355r#1 54321r#1 54321r#1.MI 12555r#1 How would you do it?

I need to set up a backup schema for a laptop. The user will not interact w/ it at all. I would like it to be as simple as an ' xcopy ' in a login script. Problem is the login script will be executed whenever the machine drops onto the network, dial-up vpn, broadband vpn and local lan. The...

adding a networked hp printer. what are the steps please?

the server has an exported fs: /users the server has a mounted fs: /users/MI_DWGS the client has a mount point: /users would you expect the client to see files in /users/MI_DWGS????

Thanks soladm

Everything seems fine on the server. I would like the client to be able to mount the directory when he tries to browse the mount point and auto mount if it has timed out. I found /etc/auto_master and /etc/auto_home files, but not much info in the man pages regarding them. Could you shed some...

I have become familiar w/ these files. the server has entiries in the dfs to share the client has entries in the /etc/vfstab to mount. but on occasion AFTER a period when the server was unavailable the mount on the client is empty (stale?) does a mount command need to be issued to recover...

I need to have something in place to correct stale mount points. For example, an NFS server is rebooted and some of its clients dont remount it. why does this happen and how do I fix it. It really stinks when the CEO call on the weekend asking why he cant get to an NFS. Thanks, Mikeb

I want to use and NFS mount to: cd /nfs_mounted_dir find . -depth -print | cpio -pdm /local_mounted_directory I am getting all kinds of permisions errors. mostly w/ the hidden '.' files but also w/ other files and directories. I am root, the mount is rw, the local_mounted_directory is 777...

uname -r returns 4.1.3-U1 searched this list for 4.1.3 and got: thread60-59448 suggests that this translates to: SunOS 4.1.3 = Solaris 1.1.1 So I guess that my question applies to SunOS 4.1.3. Same thing? I dont know. Mikeb

Where is sys-unconfig in Solaris 1.1.1 ? Does it exist? or will I need to edit all the appropriate files to put this bugger on the network? Triing to do this over the phone w/ a non-unix friendly user. Thanks, Mikeb

I want to steal some gigs from partion 'OLD' to create partion 'NEW'. My question is: What happens to data on partition 'OLD' after I change its size w/ format -> partion -> 'OLD'? Enter partition size[26216064b, 26008c, 12800.81mb, 12.5gb]: 8gb Currently 'OLD' partion only contains 1.3gb of...

actually I found the following: copy /B *+,, Anyone care to explain the '+,,' ? This command will run thru all the files in the directory and basically touch them. Now, when I check back to the directory I want to copy all of the files as of the last 'touching'? Any suggestions? Thanks, mikeb

I want to write a script (bat) that will copy all files newer than a given date and then time stamp all of the files at the original location to the current date. Any suggestions?
