    ActiveX component that behaves in 2000 blows up in XP

    New development! I removed the workstation from the domain, and re-enabled fast user switching. Got some different behavior: If I was logged in as a user and pressed CTRL-ALT-DEL, task manager comes up and the application stays intact. If I switched users (leaving the original login), the...

    ActiveX component that behaves in 2000 blows up in XP

    Yeah, pretty much! It'll be up to our developers to figure out how to proceed. I've been working the OS/environment angle hoping to make their lives easier. I just finished testing on XP SP1 and I get the same results so it doesn't seem to be a result of any new "features". Here's a snippet...

    ActiveX component that behaves in 2000 blows up in XP

    Hi BadFrog- All the apps should be 32bit. The OCX that's blowing up is named GTNUM32.OCX so I'm making a pretty confident assumption there. We are having the problem on new installs of XP (haven't really done any 2000->XP upgrades) and both new 2003 installs and 2000->2003 upgrades. The...

    ActiveX component that behaves in 2000 blows up in XP

    Well, still no luck. I tried calling Greentree and their numbers have been disconnected. On XP, I tried the following things: 1. Running apps in Safe Mode 2. Change the application compatibility ('.exe app that uses gtnum32.ocx' -> Windows 2000 Mode) Can't configure the OCX file for...

    ActiveX component that behaves in 2000 blows up in XP

    Thanks for the ideas! I'll let you know how it goes in the morning. I have sent two messages to Greentree support and haven't heard anything yet. They don't seem to have many newer products than what we already have (purchased in '99 or so) so I'm thinking they're not going to be much help.

    ActiveX component that behaves in 2000 blows up in XP

    Forgot to mention- we're running XP Pro SP2 and 2003 Server SP1 with current patches as of July of 2005.

    ActiveX component that behaves in 2000 blows up in XP

    Hi there- We've been looking all over for a solution and haven't found one yet... Thanks in advance for any advice you might have. We design database applications and use a Greentree ActiveX control (gtnum32.ocx) for certain modules. If one of these modules/applications is open and...

    Thanks a TON! Will try this today.

    Limit Terminal Service (Admin Mode) connections to 1 user?

    Hi there- I'm working at a customer site and we are planning to use TS for some remote administration tasks. For various reasons, they would only like 1 person to be able to log in instead of a possible 2- which is allowable through this type of TS installation. Is there a reg hack or...

    Backup job seems to work ok, but gives status: "Failed"

    The corrupted file will make the job "fail" but skips should not. Do you know what file it was? I have seen this before when it was trying to back up an Outlook .PST file that was still being accessed by a client. It says the file was corrupt but it's just the way Outlook locks it when in...

    9.1 I/O error backing up the system state?

    Hi there- Went through a very strange experience with a customer's server. They're running BE 9.1 on Win2K server SP4 that is a domain controller. The server is also running SQL 2000 Std (SP3). Using an older Exabyte Eliant 820 drive on an AHA 2940AU controller. Also using a recent copy of...

    VPN between Symantec E.F. 7 and Linksys RV082?

    Has anyone done this? I've been trying and although I can get a tunnel set up between the 2 firewalls, I cannot pass any traffic. All the settings seem to jive in terms of using the same DES, SHA, timeouts, etc. I have updated the firmware on the Linksys to 1.1.5. Symantec Enterprise...

    Anyone else have Dr. Watsons from time change?

    Hey- Cool screen-name! :) Maybe we were separated at birth or something... Glad to hear you're up and running OK. -Sparky

    Anyone else have Dr. Watsons from time change?

    Hi all- We have 2 Raptor FWs (one 6.5 and one 7.0) running on NT 4.0 Workstation. This morning, both were crashed with about 20 Dr. Watson messages. Based on when it all started (about 1am on 4/4/04), I think it may have something to do with the change to Daylight Savings Time. When I first...

    Sym VPN Client 7- Payload Incorrectly Formed

    Found the cause of the problem!!! Originally, I planned to use a SonicWall FW for my end of the tunnel- which was the "remote site" for discussion's sake. So it turns out, the "main office site" configured their VPN gateway to look for my SonicWall and a machine NAT-ed behind it. It turns out...

    SP4- Access is denied

    Ooops... Forgot to include a few more snippets. We checked out the svcpack.log file in c:\winnt. The contents are generally as follows: Service Pack started with following command line: *** PrepareToTrustInfFile: MySetupCopyOEMInf failed: 0x5 *** DoInstallation: PrepareToTrustInfFile Failed...

    SP4- Access is denied

    I saw that article too and checked the policy. The Administrators group (which Administrator is a part of) is allowed to back up. The install blows up just mere seconds after double-clicking on update.exe. I wish I knew what it's doing in the background while it's displaying the initial...

    SP4- Access is denied

    Here's the situation- Win2K Server/domain controller already on SP3... Logged in as Administrator. No special group policies set that I am aware of. When attempting to install SP 4, the first dialog box comes up for a few seconds and then closes with the error that 'Access is denied'. We...

    Sym VPN Client 7- Payload Incorrectly Formed

    Hi all- I've got a stumper here... I have a client machine on my company's network that should connect to a remote Raptor VPN gateway. Whenever I try, I get the errors at the bottom of the post. Thinking I had misconfigured this machine, I set up another machine in the same manner and still...

    No logon servers available

    I assume all the domains are registered on a DNS server that your clients are pointing to?
