Software & hints for working with Windows NT

Windows Software

 

Autostarting, booting

Creating autostart CDs

You need a simple file which starts a document, look here.

 

Creating DOS-bootdisks

You need bootdisks for preparing your computer for writing back a ghost-image things only you know. Here is how to make them and you will find images from bootdisks with network access to Novell and Windows NT from your DOS-prompt.

 

Administering NT

There is an tremendous number of tasks to think about when installing a new NT-network. Surprisingly a lot of things can be found in NT Ressource Kits, not surprising that you have to read and work with it. It does not help being in your desk... sigh!
Some of the thoughts I made are collected together here. Take a look...

 

System maintainance

 

Loginscripts with DOS, Kixtart, without Kixtart

Software to crack passwords

... for my users who have lost their Office97/Winword97 passwords (sigh):

Windows NT general

Tips and hints around WindowsNT:

 

Microsoft tells us about it's NT workstation products, main page here. There is also a page for german NT-products and Fixes from Microsoft.
A list of themes how to configure Windows NT: NTFS->FAT, Routing between Multiprotocol Networks..., look in www.asug.org
Manipulating Registry, this is GREAT: www.jsiinc.com/reghack.htm

Automating tasks with Cygwin

Cygwin submits a lot of unix-commands for Windows NT. I like to use sitecopy from Windows NT to syncronize a local web-directory to a remote one, after that a ssh-command is submitted to a Linuxserver to update a searchmachine.

1. Batchfile to click on:

d:
chdir \cygwin\bin
bash --login -i /cygdrive/d/data/www/lena/syncall.sh
pause
   

2. Shellscript d:\data\www\lena\syncall.sh which does the real work

# sync to gatekeeper
# are up to date:
# sitecopy --catchup gatekeeper_lena
# sitecopy --catchup lena
sitecopy --update gatekeeper_lena
sitecopy --update lena
# update searchmachine
/cygdrive/d/prgs/putty/plink.exe -v -ssh -pw password_for_wwwrun wwwrun@gatekeeper.rosi13.de /lisad/cgi-bin/indexer.pl

Das haben wir jetzt 40 Jahre so gemacht, warum sollten wir das ändern?

We are doing it this way for 40 years, why should we change it?
