When I try to use "net view" in command prompt, I get an error code 6118. What does this mean, and how can I fix it? Thanks, Nick.
6118 means The list of servers for this workgroup is not currently available, mostly it is due to the firewall protection blocks the SMB.
You can check as following steps
first check each pc is in the same workgroup.
disable the firewall and virus protect in each PC.
Ping PC2 from PC1 to ensure the network is ok
net view \PC2 from PC1 to check if it is ok.

An attempt at security.
In an attempt to make my computer useless if stolen I have a batch file which tests for a file on my pen drive when booting and if not found then it switches to a dummy background and closes windows down. If my pen drive is present it takes a backup of my critical files and proceeds normally.
I would like to do the same when booting into safemode. I've found the Reg key that I think I needs but how to I tell it to run checkpen.bat ?
HKLM\SYstem\CurrentControlSet\Control\SafeBoot
Ian
You need to do following
1.) Install the batch Job as a Service. The steps can be found here
2.) Make a entry in HKLM\SYstem\CurrentControlSet\Control\SafeBoot\Minimal with the name of the service. Add a default column and set it as `Service'
Hope this helps.

Error 80072F76 while updating windows phone.
Reply Quote Edit
While updating windows phone 7 to 7.5 in zune i am getting the following error:
Can't check for updates right now. Please try again later. An Error has occured
80072F76
Please tell me ....
This MSDN Article suggests that the issue may be a firewall or antivirus stopping you from connecting properly. If you are trying this at work then you may need to contact your administrator to rectify this.
If both of these have been checked and disabled (for a very short time) or fixed then it may be a temporary issue with your ISP or even Microsoft. In that case I'd give it half an hour, then try the update again

In windows 7 when you click start...then the shut down button. what program is it calling to do the work?
You can always use where.exe to find things like this:
C:\>where shutdown.exe
C:\Windows\system32\shutdown.exe
There is a command-line process "shutdown.exe" which is generally the go-to for programmatic shutdowns/restarts.
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb491003.aspx
This does the actual shutting down. The various windows or dialogs you see asking you to choose how you want to shut down (shut down, sleep, hibernate, restart, log off) and/or asking you to confirm you want to do what you said you did are just part of the taskbar/start menu program, explorer.exe (which is also the Windows Explorer executable).
C:\Windows\System32\shutdown.exe
Though this is definitely not a Stack Overflow question.

anyone knows any "real" parental control software for windows which is "open source"?
tnx
I've just found one:
Kid Logger
Real "parental control" on Windows is Windows itself.
add all allowed domains and their IP's (twice each, with and without 'www') in file /windows/system32/drivers/etc/hosts
in properties of network connection go to properties of TCP/IP, choose 'use the following DNS addresses' and add 127.0.0.1
Now your system knows IP's of domains listed in hosts, and cannot query DNS for others, so no connection.
While not "open source," Microsoft's Windows Live Family Safety is nice. It's free and works great with Vista/Win7.

Although I am a domain admin, I get this message when issuing this command on Windows 7
C:\>net session
System error 5 has occurred.
Access is denied.
Right Click and "Run As Administrator"
This is anecdotal and your mileage may vary.
On my win7 box I get your error when there are no connections to my Win7 box. If I map a drive from another PC (example: WinXP) back to the Win7 box and then run "net session" on the Win7 box, I'll get results
=Computer =Username =Client Type = Opens Idle time
=\192.168.150.150 =ADMINISTRATOR =Windows 2002 S... =2 00:00:00
=The command completed successfully.
Hope that helps (sorry for the poor editing-its not courier)
