Connection, disconnection ok OK, may not reconnect again

I start my computer and log on no problem using my normal user name and password. But then after I close the session or switch users, I can't log on to ANY account at all, it keeps telling me 'You have forgotten your password' even if I use the same password that I connected with in the beginning. The only way to log back is to reboot the computer, it connects fine... until I disconnect again and then it happens again. Anyone got any ideas?

Have you checked the obvious...  Is the Caps Lock off?  If you have a portable computer, make sure that the NUMLOCK is turned off as well (or your J, K, L, keys etc will display numbers instead of letters).  Maybe the keyboard layout was changed into something that you don't expect...  If you have XP Home, press Ctr + Alt + Delete twice at the logon screen and manually enter the user name and password.  Enter the user name will reveal if no keyboard mapping takes place.

HTH,

  • Sharing of readers do not reconnect - error "an error occurred during connection [drive letter]: [share name] Microsoft Windows network: the local device name is already in use." This connection has not been restored. »

    Original title: Shared readers do not reconnect

    I have two PCs connected wireless. A laptop (Vista Business) was the drives mapped to actions on the other PC (XP). Whenever the Vista PC is started or out of hibernation, or after only a short period of time these discs are not available. Click on the drive in Explorer to display the message "an error occurred during connection [drive letter]: [share name] Microsoft Windows network: the local device name is already in use." This connection has not been restored. »

    If I click on 'Network' within Solution Explorer, the XP PC is not visible. The only way that I can "reconnect" these disks is to go into my anti-virus (Trend) and open the network map. This shows the XP PC and then the shares are available through Explorer - XP PC is still not visible by clicking network however.

    It started only happens in the last two months - cannot locate exactly when, but quite recently. I use connections to store small files and backup critical files a few before nailing the laptop away and it is quite annoying to have to go through this routine every time.

    Any ideas?

    Just in case it helps others - I found that if I make sure that my XP PC has a fixed IP address, and then set up the shares so that they are defined using the IP address and not share names, then I do have more problems - seems like it's something to do with Windows solve the share names rather than something to do with the personal firewall after all.

  • connection / disconnection of the oracle database

    Hello
    I looked upwards and downwards in the documentation of oracle for a good reason why we should not connect to the oracle database, delivery time of 4 or 5 Oracle sql disconnect, reconnect 4-5 sql statements and disconnect again(using sqlplus).
    What I currently have is an application that has this kind of behavior that would be as connect/disconnect to the database over 300 times in 25 minutes.
    I know that this is not scalable, but would like to show the programmer in the oracle documentation that is not a recommended bestpractes.
    Any help will be appreciated.

    What you can explain the developer that is whathappens when a connection is given and terminated, the concept of the PGA and server allocation and dealloction process. You can include more use of server resources when all that happens. Once this part is well to him, you can tell him that hisapplication this constant opening and closing of session, it don't let not the server works optimally as morethan optimize work of its apps, server would be busy giving him the connection later by removing its connetion.

    Just take a look at the documentation and found this guide, PT
    http://download.Oracle.com/docs/CD/B19306_01/server.102/b14211/design.htm#CJHFIHFC

    >
    Factors that may prevent a linear scaling include:

    Configuration, implementation and poor application design

    The application has the greatest impact on scalability. For example:

    The poor schema design can cause expensive SQL that do not evolve.

    Poor transaction design can cause problems of locking and serialization.

    Bad connection management can cause periods of poor response and reliable systems

  • SE connect/disconnect Internet using a command prompt

    original title: to connect/disconnect Internet

    Is it possible to disconnect & reconnect my internet connection of cable to a command line in Windows XP?

    Hey John,

    I don't know if there is a way to disable the internet connection to the modem or the router by command-line in windows. There is probably a way to disable the network adapter on the local computer through command line, but myself I do not know what commands to use.
    I know, however, that if you drop your IP address, your connection will be terminated. You can do it in the command line by using the command "ipconfig/release" without the quotes. This will minimize your IP address causing your connection down.
    You can bring it to the top by renewing your IP address. This can be done in the command line by using the command "ipconfig / renew" again without the quotes.
    Note * I believe that you must be a system administrator to run these commands.
    Now, I'm sure that's not the best way to do it, but it will certainly do the job.
    I hope this helps.
