advapi32.dll can use usernames and passwords to secure applications it also will use the username/password to identify processes being run by a user. it can also be used in secure Data Base calls. and is use alot in scripting as basic funtion calls
it also is used with encryption.

so it is not the best technical answer
I had to think back to one of my classes to even com up with what little I did

Very very good! Although I haven't figured out the Function to get the password yet, I use it mostly to get the windows user name for tracking changes in my databases.

Google is no help on this question. It is knowledge only passed from Unix Gurus to their disciples, or found by reverse engineering of Perl rpms by lazy BOFHs. It only took me 5 hours to figure out how to do it.

Google leads me to the site, and from there I turn my BOFHness loose:

This is also verified through Vector!

Is ypur foot clean Opie?

You still didn't answer the question of how to install it without threading being enabled, but you did answer how to write scripts around the dreaded deadlock problem with all threaded languages.

I'll send you something in email to help you along with solving this problem.

It's all about the compile baby!

opiesilver · « **Reply #32 on:** March 01, 2004, 11:49:05 PM »

So, you going to really answer the question or not, PFY......?

ZWarrior · « **Reply #33 on:** March 02, 2004, 12:51:19 PM »

And that info is WHERE?

Don't make me start hauling out the arcane Windows knowledge. I think I'm doing good for someone that barely uses Linux.

As penance you must name the various DOS variants.

JollyRoger · « **Reply #41 on:** March 04, 2004, 12:38:17 PM »

I don't know if there is a name for it.

ZWarrior · « **Reply #42 on:** March 04, 2004, 12:50:59 PM »

We need to create a new name. It's just too good to miss. Kinda like ebonics.

Morpheus · « **Reply #43 on:** March 04, 2004, 12:53:26 PM »

I know there is Dr., and Ms., the question is what happened to Mr.? If Ms. and Mr. got together would that make Ms. Mrs.? And a little while later that might need Dr. to have Bby. Of course who cares cause now it stands for Doesn't Operate Sh@t.

This is taken from a parady that Piers Anthony put in one of his Xanth novels...he did a much better job than I.

ZWarrior · « **Reply #44 on:** March 04, 2004, 01:01:54 PM »

You tried. I know the bit, it's in, I believe, "On A Pale Horse". Which is part of the Incarnations of Immortality series. Very interesting series with very few references to female undergarments, unlike the Xanth series.

Morpheus · « **Reply #45 on:** March 04, 2004, 01:03:51 PM »

ah, I assumed it was a Xanth series since I read more of those. I read the incarnation series too....hense my screen name...yes fewer references to female undergarments, but as a teenage boy I cetainly enjoyed both series.

ZWarrior · « **Reply #46 on:** March 04, 2004, 06:06:39 PM »

"Unsaved teenage boy" you mean!
