Little Script/.NET Code That Will Prevent Auto-logout In Windows 2003 Server Edition?
Apr 3, 2011
I have a Windows 2003 server that we regularly RDP in to monitor some programs that we set up to run on the machine automatically.However, the server will automatically log me out after a few minutes of inactivity. Unfortunately the server admin (who has the admin rights to the server, which I don't) is reluctant to remove such restrictions "for security reasons".
Therefore, instead of me trying to fill up 10000 piece of paper getting a security exemption, I am just wondering if there is any tiny program that I can run on the server (either a script or some VB.NET code) that will trick the server into thinking I am constantly typing something even though I am not (For example, as if I am moving my mouse cursor once every 30 seconds or type any letter then erase it in notepad)?Note that since I do not have admin rights, any installation is certainly out of question, and the script, if any, can not require admin rights to run properly.
Are the codes generated from Visual Studio.net 2003 Visual Basic fully convertible and compatible ti Visual Basic 2005 Express Edition ? I tried converting a project which was develop from VS 2003 for VB 2005 but after the process there are some commands which is not supported in the latter version. The deployment module in this project is also not recognised in VB 2005.
How could I prevent a Windows Form from automatically docking when the form gets dragged to the left or right side of the screen in Windows 7? This is a neat feature in W7, however, for my form it does not make sense (a data input form). Sometimes I drag the form to the right to read some information on a website and input them, yet, under W7 this form docks onto the right half of the screen when I do so.
I am working on moving applications from Windows 2000 to new server Windows 2003 R2(64 Bit). I noticed that there are some VB programs and config files for those programs have been placed in Windows 2000 Registry. Some other applications are using them from different servers.Why do we use registry here? How can i move these to registry in windows 2003? Can I just move these or do I have to write VB programs to place them in 2003 registry?
I have a .net Windows Service developed in VB.net. I have a settings file in the root directory called Connections.XML and I am setting the basedirectory [code]...
When I schedule the service this is working absolutely fine in my Windows XP machine. But when I installed the same service in our development server (Windows 2003 64 bit Server) for some reason it is not able to locate this file.
I am building a Setup project for a Web system using Visual Studio 2008. I upgraded my development machine from Windows Xp to Windows 7. The problem started with Windows 7. Whenever I try to build I get the above error. I ve tried several solutions given online but I ve failed to get a solution. When I transfer the system to a machine running Windows Xp or Windows 2003 Server it builds successfuly.
I have a problem with scroll in a treeview in a Windows forms application (Framework version 3.5).
The strange thing about the problem is that on Windows XP, Windows 7 and Windows 2008 the scroll works as excepted, but in Windows Server 2003 SP2 the scrolling doesn't work. Enable/disable Visual Styles doesn't seem to make a difference on Server 2003.
Steps to reproduce the error:
1. Add a treeview to a form and add x nr of root items (and 1 sub item to each item).
2. Expand a number of nodes. The non-standard thing here is that we are changing the node integral height because we display a usercontrol with the treenode (See example of the code below).
3. When you scroll afterwards, you cannot scroll to the bottom node. The scrollbar is all the way down, but we are not seeing the last node.
Public Shared Sub SetNModeHeight(ByVal Node As TreeNode, ByVal IntegralHeight As Integer) 'Create instance of tvitemex structure.

which file i should install in our windows server 2003 for it to support the windows 2003 server should i download the all framework (200+ mb i think) ?
I am NOT allowed to install into Windows Server GAC. I am allowed to upload my program files to a shared drive, not the operating system drive.To begin, I created a simple Class Library .dll and uploaded the entire project folder to the shared drive. I have absolute permission to do anything with this drive and the computer. This class library has only (1) public property.I created a client exe. with a reference to the shared drive .dll. I do not want a local copy of the .dll into my client folder. I want all clients to use this shared copy on my shared drive. And I repeat, I do not want to install into the GAC. I also have full permissions on my terminal.I have created a key file (.snk) for my .dll, and set up assembly information (public id) and tested.I have tried without key(.snk file), and removed assembly information, and tested.Can someone point me into the direction to install/or not to install a MyClass.dll on a shared driveand be able to reference it from other applications?I do not want to use ASP.NET. This is just a base class. This is not a Web service. It seems Windows server 2003 wants this installed into the GAC (C:WindowsAssembly)I have to be missing something.
I've developed a VB.NET application with Visual Studio 2008. The application communicates with SQL Server and processes a text file.
My question is about performance. While I run it from Visual Studio 2008, it takes 3 sec to complete. The same is when I run the executable created by the Setup Wizard on my desktop (Windows XP sp 3). But if I run the executable installed on a Windows 2003 Server, it takes 15 sec to complete! What could be the reason of degrading performance on the server vs. the desktop? The .Net framework 3.5 SP1 is installed both on the desktop and the server.
I have a project that up until recently has been working fine. It sends an email message to a user once a file has been successfully uploaded, registered and/or approved to use the website. It is written in VB.NET framework 1.1, running ASP.NET on a Windows 2003 server SE sp2.

This has worked for over one or two years. Today I realized upon testing I get the following error:The procedure entry point IstrcmpiI could not be located in the dynamic link library MSDART.DLL.Upon some research I found that maybe I needed to install MDAC 2.8, which i downloaded and installed today, however i still get the same error. I have had my communications and network admins check traffic and connectivity to the smtp server and all is working fine. Yet I still get the error.
I have programs written in VB2005 accessing mdb database in server. When the server run XP, it was never a problem (at the time, the folder was shared to all). There is a new rule in the company and we have Win 2003 server, and my mdb file must be stored in a folder in the server that the administrator (not I) have installed password. And clients are supposed to access it as user only. I can ask password as administrator, but the users of my program must not have the administrator password (which I can included in my program if necessary). How can I modify my program so that it can access the database? I assume I must modify my connection string, but I do not know how. I am currently using this:
working on an application which performs a set of operations on Active Directory based on an op code.The application was developed long back and has been working fine. I recently made few changes, which is causing the Server to run out of memory whenever the program is being run. I also modified the code to make sure that the variables being declared in each function are set to "Nothing" at the end of function so that the memory can be collected by garbage collector. To make sure, I'm also forcing garbage collection to take place at different parts of the program. But, I still continue to have the issue. The program is very big and hence I could not upload it.
The code retrieves a list of rows from a table with opcodes in it and based on operation code, it performs a set of tasks. The problem is that when it loops through each row in the table, the size of memory required by the program keeps increasing (> 1 GB) to the point where the Server (Windows 2003) is crashing. I have tried different profiling tools, but none of them have been able to detect any memory leaks in the program. I'm guessing that the resources are being held up and hence causing this issue.
I'm trying to develop some code to send a fax automatically from a ASP webpage.
[code].....
Basically on my development machine (XP Pro) the fax sending works correctly via our SBS 2003 server which has the fax services installed. Now I want to upload the ASP webpage to our Windows 2003 Standard server under IIS. When I try to send faxes using this server (via the SBS2003) server I get the exception "Operation Failed".I've installed/uninstalled the Fax Service on our Windows 2003 Standard server but still the same error message.
I have code that works fine on my XP machine. It loads an HTML document into the VB 6 WebBrowser control and then uses the following command to print the document without any print dialog box:mfrmPrint.WebBrowser1.ExecWB OLECMDID_PRINT, OLECMDEXECOPT_DONTPROMPTUSER, PRINT_DONTBOTHERUSER_WAITFORCOMPLETIONI have also just implemented a .NET C# DLL that uses the axDHTMLEDLib. It also works fine on my XP computer.
We develop 2 sites in asp.net, this both use forms authentication, when a user login in one of this sites it work fine, but if login into the second site, it's logout for the server of the first site, the authentication of both sites have the same usecontrol.
I have got menu bar.In that there is Logout option also.When the user clicks on Logout then it should pop up the msg that "successful logout" and close the current page and redirect to login form. [code] This code is working fine for 1 form but not for other form.
In that there is Logout option also.When the user clicks on Logout then it should pop up the msg that "successful logout" and close the current page and redirect to login form.I wrote this code:
My intention is to load my data from access database through datagridview but it keeps telling me the same error. This is the exact error message I've gotten.. it threw an oledb Exception stating: Could not open table 'MSysAccounts' in the workgroup information file. I've been browsing and viewing different resources but I still do not find a solution to view my data in datagridview. Few things I've tried:
1. I originally uses Ms Access 2007 to load, but it does not seem to work well, hence i converted it into Ms Access 2003 format. Same error displayed.
2. Working around with the workgroup in Access 2003, creating new workgroup which creates System.mdw file and I replaced it in:
