i am running xampp on my windows 7 machine. i've downloaded the sourcecode for concrete5 5.4.2.2 (that is a PHP-based CMS) but some directories are not writeable, see screenie:
since there is no such thing as chmod on windows i am now wondering how to make the folders writeable by the webserver?!

There are two steps that should help you. First, check what user the web server is running as. If you can't see it easily, just Task Manager - it should show you. Then, once you know that user, give him read/write permissions through windows explorer to that folder. Alternatively, you could give "eveyone" access this way, but that has some serious security implications.

I've read many articles about using wevutil.exe and it seems to be exactly what I need. However, I cannot find it. I've tried on a Windows 2003 server, Windows 2008 server, Windows 7, etc. All come back with "'wevutil' is not recognized as an internal or external command". TechNet (which has docs on using it) doesn't list a download point so I assume it is provided with Windows?
I think you just misspelled, it's actually WevtUtil, and is located in C:\Windows\System32.

Which Windows 7 file(s) are critical for booting?
In other words, what is the shortest way to irreversibly dismantle a Windows 7 instance via a batch script, assuming we have root privileges?
I googled a bit, but I found ambiguous information.
*I'm asking this out of curiousity - not to do evil deeds.
The thing about booting files is that all of them can easily be restored. If you want to irreveribly degrade Windows about the only thing you can do is destroy the registry files. See this link for the location of the registry archives.

Currently we can backup ubersvn server data by going to the web interface, log in, go to Administartor, Backup and follow the UI there.
My need is to do it via a command-line/batch command.
We have a blog on how to back up Subversion repositories here: http://blogs.wandisco.com/2012/03/20/how-to-backup-subversion-repositories/
However, that only backs up the Subversion data and not the uberSVN admin stuff (such as users and teams etc). Currently the only way to back this up is via the uberSVN interface.
If you have any further questions gimme a shout here: http://www.svnforum.org/forums/32-uberSVN-Help-and-Support

All,
I have one firefox installation at work that has specific add-ons, each add-on having it's own preferences and history/data.
Is there a tool/steps to move the entire data to my personal PC, so that I do not have to set-up everything all over again?
My workstation is Windows XP SP3
and
my personal PC is Windows 7, professional, 64bit.
Thanks
Open your Explorer and type in: %APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\
If you didn't create another profile there should be one folder with ".default" at the end of it's name. Just copy this folder to the same directory on your desktop pc.
Have fun :)

on my local website i would like to the /web directory point to a folder on my windows box. I have tried putting a shortcut there and it failed. I tried creating an alias in my httpd.conf and i get a 403 http error. Im out of ideas!
The 403 error means that for some reason the server process doesn't have permission to access that folder, but it looks like you're probably doing that alias correctly.
Just making sure, everything is entirely within windows? If it was linux pointing to windows, you could mount --bind it somewhere, or chmod it to fix the permissions issue.
