Hi,
the default setting in Windows Vista, 7 or 8 is to assign a drive letter when you plugin a removable device. But sometimes you want to prevent Windows from doing that, for example security reasons.
You can control this behaviour with the mountvol command. The following command line disable the automatical assignment.
mountvol /N
to enable the auto assignment again execute
mountvol /E

Hi,
short post as reminder how to enable Server Side Includes on a virtual directory.
mod_include must be enabled. MimeType for text/html must associated with .shtml file extension. Sample config for SSI looks like these:
<Directory "D:/user/www/virtualdirectory/">
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews ExecCGI Includes
AllowOverride All
Order allow ,deny
Allow from all
Require all granted
AddType text/html .shtml
AddOutputFilter INCLUDES .shtml
</Directory>
See you Michael
Hi,
I have added a virtual directory to an apache web server and the virtual directory is located outside the document root. I configured the httpd.conf how it is decripted in the apache doc
When I access the virtual directory an error “Access forbidden! Error 403” occured. The config seems to ok:
Alias /virtualdirectory/ "D:/user/www/virtual/" <Directory "D:/user/www/virtual/"> Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews ExecCGI AllowOverride All Order allow,deny Allow from all </Directory>
The default apache configration is very restrictive. It do not allow to access directories without authentication. This is defined in the Directory section of httpd.conf:
<Directory> AllowOverride none Require all denied </Directory>
Add a “require all granted” directive to your virtual directory section will grant the access.
Alias /virtualdirectory/ "D:/user/www/virtual/" <Directory "D:/user/www/virtual/"> Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews ExecCGI AllowOverride All Order allow,deny Allow from all Require all granted </Directory>
Hello,
yesterday a customer had the problem that he wants an old printer, a HP LaserJet 5M, to get running on 15 Windows 7 clients. Unfortunately Windows has no driver on board and the manufactorer didn’t provider anyone.
For many old printers you can install a driver via Windows Update. Go to the Control Panel, Device & printers and add a new printer
