    My son will connect to FB, then goes to bed and does not sign off the coast. I log in and the machine is really slow. I am administrator in Windows Vista. Can I disconnect it without password?


    * original title - how I as an administrator can connect my son, another user of my computer. I can get her password, but is it a switch, so I can just cut him so my machine is not so slow? *

    I forgot my password iam unable to open a session now and in my system, there is that no other administrator accounts are available. How to connect

    As you go now, having a spare admin account is a very practical thing - if you think of it in advance. Fortunately, there are many other options built into Windows to help you out of this situation:
    • Restart the computer with your Windows repair CD, then use system restore to set Windows in a few days (only works if you have recently changed the password).
    • Log in as administrator mode without failure, then reset the password for your existing account (the password is usually empty).
    • Insert your flash drive USB with the password key file (only works if you have taken the time to create such a key file).
    • Use the password indicator (works only if you have created a hint and if it's good enough to allow you to guess the password)
    • Check your paper files (works only if you threw down the password somewhere)

    Hi all

    I use labsql (and quite new to him m) and the server Mysql 5.1.I wanted to know how to connect to the database without changing the name of the dsn from the tools administrative/ODBC 5.1 driver manually. I want to install exe in several PC and it would be a great help if I could make the connection directly but my Vi.

    I went through several forums and came to know that 'Provider = ProviderName; Data Source = DatabaseSource; Initial Catalog = DatabaseName; User = username ID; Password = password', should solve the problem. But where in my case I m still confused. The connection string above does not sit well with me.

  • Impossible to create a network/how to connect to openstack-client CLI

    Hello

    According to the video 'VMware integrated OpenStack - adding networks - YouTube', it shows how to create a network through CLI openstack-client.

    While, I'm new to openstack and don't know how to connect to the CLI client at all.

    I could only try to create a network in the GUI. Here is my configuration:

    1.PNG

    It looks great, isn't it? However, I get:

    1.PNG

    Configure anything wrongly? BTW, can someone tell me how to access the CLI openstack-client as the video.

    Here is something you can try.

    If you are using DVS based network, you must enter "dvs" in the section "physical network.

    If you are using NSXV, then you can leave the Network Physics field empty, otherwise you must ensure that you enter a valid dvs moref id.

    For most cases, if you use NSXV, you can simply create network tenent in the project view (then NSXV will take care of it for you).

    Anyway, if you want to use cli, here are the steps.

    1 > connect to the administration server

    2 > ssh-i /home/viouser/.ssh/id_rsa viouser@controller01

    3 > sudo knew.

    4 > source cloudadmin.rc

    Then, you can use the cli freelly.

    Kind regards

    Any idea?

    I assume you are using the Standard edition? Native drivers for Oracle come with CF9 Enterprise, you will need to download the JDBC drivers from Oracle's Web site.
