Fortitude HTTP Is A Local Web Server For Windows

 

The web server is immediately functional after installation and it is possible to connect to example websites by pointing the web browser to http://localhost/.

 

 

The http management console is used to configure the web server locally. It displays the hosted websites, their settings and global settings in the left sidebar.

 

 

New websites can be added easily by right-clicking the websites entry and selecting Configure from the context menu. Here it is possible to delete, add and edit websites.

 

A name, port, root directory and description can be added in the web site creation menu. Each website can be configured individually from a maximum connection limit and buffer size to the server admin email, root login details, scripting engines (supported are python, php, perl and vbs), SSI and CGI.

 

The global settings are identical to the local ones, with the difference that they are applicable for all web servers.

 

The only thing missing is a database server like MySQL which needs to be installed separately.

Windows 7 Tips and Tricks > Wipe your Hard Drive Securely

Wipe your drives securely with a hidden Windows 7 tool

It’s always a worry when you get rid of a PC or hard drive that all sorts of personal data could be sitting on it waiting to be stolen.  This is even more important when it comes to business computers.

There have always been a huge variety of hard disk wiping packages available from third-parties, but did you know that Windows 7 has it’s own free in-built tool for securely erasing, not just whole hard disks, but specific folders as well?

The cipher.exe tool has been around for years now and is used for managing the EFS (Encrypted File System) feature that preceeded Bitlocker and was first introduced with Windows 2000.  It’s run from the Command Prompt (as an Administrator).

With Windows 7 though Microsoft have added a new switch to the tool, and it’s one you should definitely use with care!

 The command is Simply cipher /w x:\folder where you would substitute x:\folder for the location you want wiped, for instance your D:\ drive or your C:\Users\Mike Halsey\Music folder.

This will write a series of 0s, 1s and then random characters to every sector of the drive or folder to securely erase the data that’s stored there.  Believe me, if you do this casually you’re not going to get your data back afterwards.

Microsoft say that this feature is here for clearing empty folders and drives that need to be erased, and it’s an excellent way to save money on expensive third-party software.

So the next time you’re upgrading your hard disk, don’t waste your money, just cipher the thing instead.

6 Ways To Sync Your iPod To Computer Without iTunes

by Steven Campbell on Jun. 15th, 2010

There has always been one universal constant for purchasers of an iPod – that they would be using Apple’s iTunes to sync it. Apple’s iTunes has been downloaded millions of times and is adored by many, but what if you’re looking for an alternative?

Last year, we covered a similar topic entitled6 Ways To Sync Music To Your iPhone Without iTunes. The article was very popular and it covered 6 great applications. There has since been many capable alternatives to iTunes, each program having its own pros and cons.

In this article, I am going to cover some of the best free alternatives to using iTunes to sync iPod to computer without iTunes.

[Note]: Depending on which model of iPod you own, you may want to still keep iTunes around for firmware updates, application downloads, and other advanced features that one or more of these programs may not be capable of.

Floola (Cross Platform)

Floola is a freeware application that will effectively manage your iPod’s music, videos, podcasts, and photos. It is a standalone application that can be run directly from your iPod and needs no installation under Windows, Mac OS X, or Linux. The current version supports every type of iPod except for the iPhone/iTouch.

Floola supports almost all of the features offered by iPods. It can convert incompatible audio and video files, add YouTube videos to your device, and sync Google Calendars. With Floola you can copy almost any file to your iPod. It is also very easy to uninstall, which makes it worth giving a try.

Songbird (Windows & Mac)

Songbird is a Mac and PC compatible application that handles all of your digital media management needs. It is an open source media manager that will sync your music, video, and photos to and from iTunes with ease.

Songbird allows you to set up watch folders to keep Songbird in sync as your media changes over time. It also supports hundreds of add-ons that can add features, integrate services, and customize the application.  We have covered Songbird a lot in the past.   Just click here to see the search results.

Amarok (Cross Platform)

Amarok is a powerful music player that is supported by Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux. It has an automated playlist generator, a similar artists and upcoming events applet, and support for the Last.fm database. Amarok is integrated with a lot of web services and features support for all iPods.

EphPod (Windows)

EphPod is a full-featured Windows application that connects with Apple’s iPod. It supports standard Winamp playlists and will synchronize an entire music collection with one click. It imports Microsoft Outlook contacts and can download the latest news, weather, e-books, and movie listings to an iPod.

On the download page it is noted that EphPod may not work properly with new iPods, but it is worth investigating.

YamiPod (Cross Platform)

YamiPod is yet another cross platform iPod manager that is supported on Mac OS X, Windows, and Linux. Like Floola, it is a standalone application which requires no installation. Your iPod is automatically recognized and synced with your computer. It supports multiple iPods and can copy/sync your music, playlists, and song lists.

Banshee (Linux)

Banshee is packaged for many Linux distributions and is even the default media player for several. According to the site, it will soon be available for Windows and Mac OS X as well.

Banshee allows you to sync your music and videos to your iPod, Android, and other devices. It supports audio, video, podcasts, album art, playlists, and more.

 

 

 

 

Knowledge Base > Outlook >How to create a recurring e-mail message in Outlook

 

How to create a recurring e-mail message in Outlook 2003 or Outlook 2007 / Send recurring email reminder automatically

 

Microsoft Article Number KB239087

 

Outlook does not provide a means to create recurring e-mail messages. For example, you might want to send an e-mail message every month to remind a group of people that a report is due. While you can set up appointments and tasks as recurring events, you cannot create a recurring e-mail message.

You can use Visual Basic Script and the recurrence settings of a task to automatically generate a recurring e-mail message. This procedure consists of the following tasks:

1. Publish a custom task form that creates an e-mail message when the task status equals completed.
2. Use the custom task form to create a recurring task.
3. When the task comes due, mark it as completed. The code will generate the boilerplate message, which you then send. At the same time, a new task is created because the original task was set to recur.

This article assumes that you are familiar with the programming language being demonstrated and the tools used to create and debug procedures. Microsoft support professionals can help explain the functionality of a particular procedure, but they will not modify these examples to provide added functionality or construct procedures to meet your specific needs. 
If you have limited programming experience, you may want to contact a Microsoft Certified Partner or Microsoft Advisory Services. For more information, visit these Microsoft Web sites:

Publish a Custom Task Form

1. Start Outlook and open your Tasks folder.
2. On the Actions menu, click New Task.
3. On the Tools menu, point to Forms, and then click Design This Form.
4. On the Form menu, click View Code, and type the following code in the Script Editor:

 

Sub Item_PropertyChange(ByVal Name)    Select Case Name    Case "Status"            if Item.Status = 2 then '2 = Completed                    Set NewItem = Application.CreateItem(0)                    NewItem.To = "myemailaddress@myisp.com"                    NewItem.Recipients.ResolveAll                    NewItem.Subject = "This is the message subject text"                    NewItem.Body = "This is text that will appear in the body of the message."                    NewItem.Display            End IF    End Select    End Sub

                                                           

5. In the Script Editor, on the File menu, click Close.
6. On the Tools menu, point to Forms, and then click Publish Form.
7. In the Look in list, click Tasks. In the Display Name and Form Name boxes, typeReminder, and then click Publish.
8. On the File menu, click Close. Do not save changes.

NOTE: In the code, substitute your own information inside the quotation marks forNewItem.To, NewItem.Subject, and NewItem.Body. These lines set the To, Subject, and body of your reminder message.

 

Create a Recurring Task Using the Custom Form

1. Open your Tasks folder, where you published the custom reminder form.
2. On the Actions menu, click New Reminder. This will open a new task based on your custom form.
3. Type a subject for your reminder task. In Due Date, click to select a due date from the calendar. Click to select the Reminder check box.
4. On the Actions menu, click Recurrence, and set how often you want the reminder message sent.
5. Click Save and Close.

 

To Send Reminder E-mail

When you receive the reminder that the task is due, click Open Item. In the Status box, click to select Completed.

Outlook- Message Undeliverable error

 

From: System Administrator
Sent: Tuesday, June 15, 2010 4:07 PM
To: me, you
Subject: Undeliverable: Apple

 

Your message did not reach some or all of the intended recipients.

 

      Subject:            Apple

      Sent:                 6/15/2010 4:07 PM

 

The following recipient(s) could not be reached:

 

      Jeena, Seem on 6/15/2010 4:07 PM

            You do not have permission to send to this recipient.  For assistance, contact your system administrator.

            MSEXCH:MSExchangeIS:/DC=com/DC=eversoft:EXCHANGE3

 

 

Possible Cause: The message in the queue has expired. The sending server tried to relay or deliver the message, but the action was not completed before the message expiration time occurred. This NDR may also indicate that a message header limit has been reached on a remote server or that some other protocol timeout occurred during communication with the remote server. 

Troubleshooting: This code typically indicates an issue on the receiving server. Verify the validity of the recipient address, and verify that the receiving server is configured to receive messages correctly. You may have to reduce the number of recipients in the header of the message for the host that you are receiving this NDR from. If you resend the message, it is placed in the queue again. If the receiving server is on line, the message is delivered.

 

 

Windows 7 Account Lockout (How to trace source?)

Winodws 7 Account Lockout (How to trace source?)

 

Once we confirm the problematic computer, we can perform further research to locate the root cause. Actually, there are many possible causes for bad password, such as cached password, schedule task, mapped drives, services, etc. Please remove the previous password cache which may be used by some applications and therefore cause the account lockout problem. 

 

Troubleshooting steps:

 

1. Click Start, click Run, type "control userpasswords2" (without the quotation marks), and then click OK.

2. Click the Advanced tab.

3. Click the "Manage Password" button.

4. Check to see if these domain account's passwords are cached. If so, remove them.

5. Check if the problem has been resolved now.

 

If there is any application or service is running as the problematic user account, please disable it and then check whether the problem occurs.

 

 

 

How to use Account Lockout and Management Tools

How to use Account Lockout and Management Tools

DOWNLOAD NOW

 

Installing ALTools.exe

After you've downloaded ALTools.exe from the Download Center, double-click on the file to extract the tools to a directory of your choosing. Then install the tools as needed on domain controllers, member servers, or workstations as described under each tool discussed below.

 

AcctInfo.dll

This DLL adds a new tab called Additional Account Info to user account properties sheets in the Active Directory Users and Computers (ADUC). Copy the file to the System32 folder of the computer on which you run ADUC (typically an administrator workstation with adminpak.msi installed) and then open a command prompt and type regsvr32 acctinfo.dll to register the DLL. Now open ADUC and view the properties of a locked-out user like Bob Smith in Figure 2 below:

Figure 2: AcctInfo.dll adds the Additional Account Info tab to the properties sheet for a user account

There's lots of information here, but in particular line four indicates the date and time when Bob's account became locked and when it will automatically unlock. Clicking the Domain PW Info button displays the password policy for the domain:

Figure 3: Result of clicking the Domain PW Info button

Clicking the Set PW On Site DC button lets you reset the password for the user and unlock the account (see Figure 3). This is useful because if you want to reset a user's password you should do it using a domain controller in the AD site where the user's computer resides, otherwise replication latency may cause a delay before the user can log on again. This is a better approach to resetting an account by right-clicking on it and selecting Reset Password.

Figure 4: Resetting a user's password on a DC in a remote site

 

ALockout.dll

This tool creates a log file that can help you diagnose the cause of account lockout problems. Extract the files from ALockout.zip (for Windows 2000) or AlockoutXP.zip (for Windows XP) and copy them the computer experiencing the lockout problems (usually a user's workstation). Copy ALockout.dll to the System32 directory and double-click on Appinit.reg to register the DLL. Then restart the machine and when the lockout problem happens again you can view the log file %WinDir%\debug\ALockout.txt to troubleshoot. Note that interpreting this log requires you understanding Netlogon logging, which is discussed in detail in the previously mentioned whitepaper. 

 

AloInfo.exe

This tool displays the password age for user accounts so you can determine which accounts are about to expire and anticipate problems before they occur. To use this tool copy it to a folder in the system path on a domain controller and run it from a command prompt. Here's an example:

C:\>aloinfo /expires /server:test220

Getting Users (This may take a while)...

Retrieved 28 users
Printing Users in descending PW age...

Administrator,28
krbtgt,28
asmith,4
bsmith,4
csmith,3
dsmith,3
esmith,3
...

You can also use this tool to display the credentials for all mapped drives for the currently logged-on user, which can help when troubleshooting account lockout problems caused by cached credentials for persistent connections:

C:\>aloinfo /stored /server:test220

Getting Service Names and the account they start with...

Checking Mapped Drives for usernames...
Drive Y: is mapped to \\test220\docs with username DEFAULT_USERNAME

 

EnableKerbLog.vbs
Used as a startup script, allows Kerberos to log on to all your clients that run Windows 2000 and later.

 

EventCombMT.exe
This tool gathers event logs from several machines to one central location. You can create filters for searching specific event IDS across all servers.

 

 

LockoutStatus.exe

This tool displays various information about locked out accounts that can help you troubleshoot the cause of the lockout. Copy the file to a domain controller and double-click on it to run it, then choose File-->Select Target and specify the name of the user whose account lockout status you want to display. Right-click on a displayed entry to unlock the account, reset its password, or perform other actions (Figure 5):

If this fails to correct your problem, then

 

The spyware responsible for this makes a simple change to keep you from installing anything new... go to the UserShellFolders folder in your registry, the one where you were told to delete the Recent folder. Look at the APPDATA folder and notice that it has the path $APPDATA$. The path was %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Roaming

Changed the path on the bad comp to %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Roaming and rebooted into safe mode. I was able to install MBAM without a hitch and am currently running a scan the machine.

Font and Size for Business/Professsional emails and Business Letters

Font and Size for Professional or Business Emails

 

 

·         Choose between casual fonts. Casual fonts are sans-serif, or without the calligraphy edges. These fonts have a wider range, from Arial and Trebuchet to Jokerman and Lucinda Handwriting. It's a good rule of thumb to choose calm fonts, such as Arial or Trebuchet, when writing a business letter

·         Keep your font between 11 and 12 points tall. Traditional serif fonts usually need to be 12 points tall. Sans serif fonts can be easily read at 11 points. Choose a font size that is easily readable without unnecessarily taking up too much space.

·         an email template for a client, with Verdana 11px as the default font setting is good

 

I personally like is Trebuchet when writing Business emails or letters...
