Hello Experts,
I am staying at a hotel for a month (work travel)
My laptop is connected to the local wifi.

I need to map a local folder in my laptop as m:
since many applications i have need to use that mapping in order to work

Now not being an expert, first I erased all sharings from COMPMGMT.MSC
fearing someone in the hotel may access my laptop....

then I shared the local folder and added a local user with full rights to the shared and security properpties...
But no I cannot access the folder when i go through NETWORK in win explorer..
and cannt either map the folder although i can see the folder name under its computer in the network...

What can I do so i can map this local folder and havng only my laptop access it ?
Regards

PD working with win10, toshiba laptop core i5

No comments, but we're still running WordStar v.7 as our main word processor. We operate the 32-bit version of Windows 10, and we physically print letters from WordStar via a PCL driver (mapped to shared Windows printers). This works fine with all of our printers except one - our Canon iR4570 copier.

Our main copier has just gone to the wall, so we're down to only one LaserJet that can carry out this function. Obviously I want a bit more redudency than this.

We run Wordstar as a legacy app through the ntvdm.exe process we've installed with Windows 10 32-bit. If I send a print job via PCL to the iR4570 it generally never prints anything, and the touch-screen concole becomes unusable. It is like it is running a corrupt process that is consuming all memory and/or CPU cycles . The only way to recover is to physically switch the iR4570 off.

On very rare occasions, it does start printing, but just junk text comes out - either filing the page, or just a couple of letters at the top of each page. It'll print until the trays are empty.

If I print to the iR4570 via PostScript from Wordstar, it is absolutely fine. HOWEVER, PostScript fonts are slightly bolder, and it doesn't look quite right for our requirements.

The iR4570 has a pretty much identical firmware to our other copier that went to wall, and which handled this all fine with PCL printing, day in day out, until it's demise. I'm hopeful there is something just not right in the settings I can flush out - but before…

Hi Experts,

I am trying to figure out why when I create a new ADP and set the connections properties to my server (SQL 2008) then it goes fine, however if I take my old ADP and try to modify the connection to use the new server I get the attached error.

BTW, I had someone looking into this today and he was using netstat - na find "XXXX" to see where is that trying to connect to, wondering how do I use that command?

Thanks in advance.

Is there a command to close out of a remote ms DOS connection that was obtained via an exploit?
I tried EXIT and it doesn't do anything.  Control+Z just asks if I want to background the connection.  This is NOT a meterpreter connection.

Thanks to the way Amazon Music downloads MP3s, I have 704 files in 592 directories. I want to copy all of the files into a single directory. I tried a utility called XXCOPY. All the files copied to one directory but in doing so all of the filenames were modified to contain the directory structure. Poor solution. Anyone have another idea?

We have a dos computer with ages old accounting software that is absolutely crucial to this day in our company. We use dbase and compile the .prg text files into executable programs. is there a way to write and compile dbase programs under linux. if so what's the best way to go about it. I saw something called flagship and harbor but i'm not sure if this will do the trick. Has anyone ever come up with a solution to compile dbase prg txt file under linux? Any help or more explanation would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Please give me one help

I'd like to be able to run a weekly script on my domain workstations (Windows 7 and windows 10) that will populate a CSV log with username, computername and last successful windows update.

What I currently have is this:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
SET filename="C:\Windows\System32\catroot2\dberr.txt"
FOR %%f IN (%filename%) DO SET filedatetime=%%~tf
echo %username%,%computername%,%filedatetime%>>....hotfixes.CSV
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

This kinda works, but doesn't tell me an update failed. Or if updates were downloaded but not installed.

Is there a better way to achieve what I'm looking for?

Hi

I need to run a windows task scheduler job using a specific domain user account.  What user rights does it require ?

Thanks

I know the DOS command to copy a file from one folder to another in the Windows file system.  But what I need to do is have that copy process executed automatically as soon as a file is dropped into the first folder.  How can that be done?

I need to set a variable based on two conditions.  If either of the conditions are true then set the variable one way, if neither are true then set the variable another way.

Basically I'm playing with changing the 'theday' and the 'DATE_dow' variables and running.  However it's not working.  The logic is:

If %theday% LEQ 12 OR %DATE_dow% then excludeDirsDistr=Distr,Distrstg,DistrDEC,
else if neither of those are true then excludeDirsDistr=

I'm obviously not nesting this correctly or the logic above I can't accomplish like this.  Played with all kinds of combinations and not working.  Trying to avoid many 'IF' lines in order if possible...

set theday=11
set DATE_dow=Thu
set excludeDirsDistr=Distr,Distrstg,DistrDEC,
if not %theday% LEQ 12 if not %DATE_dow%==Wed set excludeDirsDistr=

Hi

I would like a DOS batch script that checks the status of a running task, however if the task is running more than 10mins to complete, the task should stop running and report that the task has been running more than 10mins

When the windows schedule task is executed it may end with an error code i.e. the "Last Result" may report a error result status other than 0, which would mean that the schedule task has failed, as it has not completed successfully with a result status code of 0

If I run the command:-

schtasks.exe /query /fo list /v /TN Burst_Triggerbatch | find "Last Result" this will produce something like the following:-

Last Result:                             -2147024895

So, ideally what should happen is,  this script will run overnight and check the status of the Last Result section and return the value to a output txt file if the value does not equal to 0.  This will indicate that the windows schedule task failed because the "Last Result" status was not 0

Is this achievable, or suggest any ideas ?

Thanks
