    Redirect to relative URL, but change to HTTPS

    That's what I'm considering, jmeckley. I figure I could get the current path, replace http with https, and then append the "relative" path to the current path. On the other hand, I think what I will do is set the top-level, non-SSL pages to check for and redirect themselves to use SSL, as per...

    Redirect to relative URL, but change to HTTPS

    I'm using explicit now. The problem is that the application needs to easily be "portable" between folders. I'm leaving where I am soon and the people who will be taking my applications are not familiar with them. That said, if I don't have a solution, I'll just be using explicit paths anyway...

    Redirect to relative URL, but change to HTTPS

    Does anyone know of a way that I can use Response.Redirect to send the user to a new relative path, but change the protocol to HTTPS? Users enter on an unencrypted page, so if I use Response.Redirect("./whatever.aspx") it transfers the user but, obviously, not the protocol. However, the page...

    Service "hang" on startup

    Thanks for the suggestion, itsp. Unfortunately, I need the service to startup at startup and not logon (though the Scheduled Taks would fix the logon part). I tried setting the service to delayed start, but then it was delayed much too long. Axis is our security camera provider, and any time...

    Service "hang" on startup

    I have a service (Axis Camera Station) that is being reported as hanging on startup. It's not. It just takes a little while to start on any OS. How can I change the threshhold for a hung service (or exclude the service) so that I'm not getting a Problem Report whenever the server reboots...

    Building a "proxy" page

    Hi all. I have a page on our intranet that I would like to display to the outside world. I don't need necessarily need to interact with it, just view it (it's a status page). Does anyone know of a way, using ASP .NET and, preferably, VB, that I can retrieve that page and redisplay it? I'm...

    how to filter a gridview

    Hi sajid. The way I handle searches tied to gridviews is to change the query. I use sqldatasource, so it may be different than your linq. What I do is set the datasource SQL query to incorporate the search item. For instance, if my original query (hard-coded in the ASPX page) displays all...

    Simple pre-made forum package

    Hi all. I'm looking for input on what the "best" ASP .NET forum package is. I've been asked to look in to making a forum site for parents to communicate on. We use Moodle already, but the director of parent involvement doesn't like Moodle (and I don't blame her in this situation). So, I'm...

    Issue raw ATA commands to devices

    Qik3Coder: I have search for OEM, commercial, and developer-made programs. I haven't had much luck. I just found one that's supposedly promising, so we'll see if it actually works at all. I know a program must exist because 1) if Seagate talks about the commands, there must be a way to use...

    Issue raw ATA commands to devices

    Hello everyone. I'm hoping somebody here can help me. I recently bought a Seagte ST9200420ASG drive for my laptop. This drive has a fall sensor that parks the heads when a fall is detected. The problem is that this feature is not enabled by default on my model (and only my model, for whatever...

    DNS (BIND) not resolving for hosts other than the localhost

    UPDATE: Fixed! Well it turns out it had nothing to do with DNS. Somehow, Fedora managed to lose my default dateway setting, so nothing was leaving our IP block.

    DNS (BIND) not resolving for hosts other than the localhost

    I've been thrown into the task of configuring BIND on Fedora 9. I never use Linux and I've never used BIND. I finally got all of our existing DNS info into BIND and working properly. I've configured iptables to allow the DNS ports, which solved one problem I was having. However, I still am...

    Keep app running in background and capture close event

    macleod: Thanks for the advice. Th service seems to be working alright. I did notice two issues between what I need it to do and what it's doing. First, when I capture the username, it gets the username of the user running the service. Right now, it's running as Local Service because I don't...

    Keep app running in background and capture close event

    I had thought about using a service, but figured it was too complicated. Looks like it's very simple, though. Thanks for the advice! I'll give it a try tonight.
