    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

    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...

    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

    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

    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

    Hi all. I thought I posted this yesterday, but it doesn't show up in "My Threads" on the board. If this is a duplicate and the other is somehow hiding from me, I apologize. I have two questions about some VB .NET programming I'm working on. I have an app that runs at startup (from the Startup...

    Remove null characters from string in VB .NET

    I have an ASP .NET 2.0 page that reads tags in from files. These tags are read as an absolute length (like take everything from byte 0 to 29). The problem is that when the info in the tags is less than the length read in, the code replaces it will null characters. Then, when I store the data...

    Pausing ActionScript execution

    I've scoured the internet to find a way to pause the execution of ActionScript in a Flash movie. I've found two main ways, but they both have serious problems for my needs. First, the setInterval function is no good for me because I don't need to call a function every so often. Second, the...

    Problem with grdiview databinding on Edit command

    I've created a search routine that uses a search string and some drop-down options to create a SQL query. I then assign this query to grdBrowse.SelectCommand = "query" on the search button click. This works fine and pulls the searched data correctly. The problem is when I click on the...

    Logging to SQL from Windows Media Services

    I'm trying to make my WMS server log to SQL instead of the usual text files. I found a doc from Microsoft that talks about how to build one on my own (which may or may not work), but I was wondering if anyone here knew where I could find either the source for one or a pre-compiled one. Thanks!

    Indenting text in a panel (or the panel itself)

    I've been working on a simple FAQ page. It expands panels with the answers when either an image (the little plus or minus ones) or a linkbutton is a clicked. Right now, it looks like this: <image> Question? Answer text line 1. Answer text line 2. I want it to look like this: <image>...

    I've got a page of code in the App_Code foler of my application. The class is called from an HTTP handler in web.config to handle a file upload. The file upload is based in Flash and ActionScript. In other words, a Flash movie uploads the file(s) to upload.axd, handled by the HTTP handler...

    Controlling a panel on a parent form from a user control

    Hello again, everyone. I've made a user control to overcome the single-form limitation in ASP .NET 2.0. The UC does a little work and then needs to interact with the parent form. I've seen how to find controls in the parents, but I need the UC to open and close some panels in the parent...

    Resetting a field to a certain value in SQL Server 2005

    Hi all. I'm making an app that will record a daily count of song plays. Each night at midnight, I've made a SQL Server 2005 job that runs. This job needs to reset all values in the "PlaysToday" column to 0. How can I do this with a SQL script that goes in the job editor? Thanks!

    Problem with limiting space for a text string

    Hi all. I'm new to Perl, and by new I mean I started looking at it yesterday. I inherited a Perl project from someone who retired from my employer and have been tasked with a few changes. They've all gone well...except for one. Here's the problem: I've got a chunk of text stored in a hash...
