Deleting a Domain Controller affect programs running by domain users?

Hello,
I have a server running Windows Server 2008 R2 which has a Domain Controller that was created for tests but was never used. I was told that by creating this DC all users accounts from the local machine are migrated to the domain and deleting it also wipes
all these accounts. The problem is that I have some programs that are run by those users accounts, I would like to know what happens to these programs if I delete the DC causing the accounts to be delete. Do these accounts are converted to local machine accounts?
What happens to the users folders?
Thanks,

you can change the computer from join domain to workstation, then monitor what happen...
don't delete the DC suddenly. if really dont need this DC, change computer to workstation and demote
Best,

Restrict number of concurrent programs running by one user.

Hello,
How can I restrict whole number of concurrent programs running by one user?

Hi
I am not sure if I understand the question correctly, but if you are asking what I think you are asking, then you can restrict the number of simultaneous concurrent jobs that a user is allowed to run with this profile option;
"Concurrent:Active Request Limit"
I recommend that you set this at the User level and not the Site level since this parameter has caused problems for me in the past (certain types of transactions submit a batch of concurrent jobs, and if all the jobs are not able to start at the same time then the concurrent jobs go into a pending state and never complete. I have not worked out why this happens, so I just stopped restricting the number of concurrent jobs that a user could run).

How do you make a program run when any user logs in?

I have an application which will need to run when any users logs in.
Such that Joe downloads and installs the application, logs out, then Sally logs in and the application runs for Sally.
Does anyone know how to do this?

Hey Steve, thanks for that link. It seems to be what
I am looking for. What is the meaning of the
~/Library vs /Library ? They are definitely
different folders.
Yes, they are definitely different folders. The "~" character represents the current users home folder, so "~/Library" represents the Library folder that's located inside a users home folder. Anything placed in there will only affect the one user whose home folder you've accessed.
The "/Library" folder is the Library folder that exists at to root of the boot volume. Things placed in this Library folder will affect all users of the system. Basically it's sort of a "global" Library.
Also, from a script, how do I add an item to execute
for that kind of PList?
That could be tricky based on the structure of that particular plist file. I haven't really looked at it closely but one place you could start is to read the "man" page for the "defaults" command... enter "man defaults" in Terminal. The "defaults" command allows you to read/write plist files, but defaults is not very good at accessing deeply nested plist items.
Related to that, how do I tell if the logging item
for my App is already there? I do not want to keep
adding to the list if it is there. If someone
deletes my app and then reinstalls it, I do not want
it to run twice, three times, etc..
Again, you could possibly read the plist using the defaults command and determine whether your item was already present or not.
Do you know of the one in the ~/Library path, what
user it execute as? Since it is all users, it
probably is root or something like that.
No, the one in ~/Library is in each individual user home folder. It will execute with the current user's privileges. This is where Login Items normally go when you go through the GUI... "Sys.Prefs -> Accounts -> Login Items" and add a login item for one user.
Even items placed in /Library, which should execute for all users, will execute with the current user's privileges.
In the near
future we might need root privileges, so I might need
a program to startup for all users as root instead of
the user.
Is your app, that needs to run at login time, a GUI application or is it a faceless shell script (or something similar). Your original post gave me the impression that you needed to launch a GUI application. However, if it's a shell script then you probably want to look at doing a LoginHook instead of using the Login Items procedure at the web page I posted earlier. I believe a LoginHook will also give you the ability to run the script as root.

How to Find Which Programs running in my Domain Computers

How to Find Which Programs running in my Domain Computers.

In addition, there are other third tools you can use. Here is a script from the TechNet Scripting Gallery:
List All Installed Software
Returns a list of all software installed on a computer, whether or not by Windows Installer. This script reads installed applications from the registry. (See Richard Mueller's comment on how to output it to a CSV file)
http://gallery.technet.microsoft.com/scriptcenter/8035d5a9-dc92-436d-a60c-67d381da15a3/view/Discussions
Of course that's just running it against one computer. There's also a script in the above link (scroll to the bottom) that will find installed software of a list of computers in a network and also detect the defined forbidden installed software, and
another script that will uninstall that software remotely.
Overall however, if you want to do this network wide with much a much easier method (although more complex to setup), I agree with using SCCM or Spiceworks. There is also Altiris, and a number of other third party solutions that you can use.
Maybe if you can provide more specific information on the end result of the solution you are looking for, we can provide more specifics to help you.

HOW DO I DELETE PROGRAMS RUNNING IN THE BACKGROUND OF MY IPHONE WITH SOFTWARE IOS7

How do I delete programs running in the background now that I have upgraded my software to IOS7?

Will upgrading on to OS X Mavericks (from Snow Leopard 10.6.8) affect the running of the installed 3rd party softwares/programs?

I have just received an email encouraging me to upgrading on to OS X Mavericks (from Snow Leopard 10.6.8). Currently I do have in my computer several 3rd party software and programs (from Adobestuff, finalcut Pro, MS Office, ILife etc.
Will upgrading to OS X Mavericks affect the running of these software /programs? Will I need to also upgrade these softwares?

There may be issues with compatibilty, as with any OS upgrade. Snow leopard (10.6.N) includes a piece of software from Apple called Rosetta. This software allows older PowerPC applications to run on Intel based Macs. This software does not run on any OS X higher than the latest Snow Leopard, 10.6.8. You can see if you have any of programs that require Rosetta installed by bringing up the "System Information" application through spotlight (click on the magnifying glass icon on the upper right, type System Information in the search field and select the application thta is found).
Once in System Information select "Applications" under "Software" near the bottom of the list. Scroll through the list of applications and if any indicate that they are PowerPC based then they will not run under Lion, Mountain Lion or Mavericks.
Hope this helps.

How to close Internet Explorer and other programs running on Windows?

In order for Flash Player to be installed or updated, any programs that use Flash Player must be closed. This includes Internet Explorer or other browsers, instant messengers, Skype, etc.
These programs may be running in the background, not as visible windows, but need to be closed anyway.
To close such programs use the Windows Task Manager. To start Task Manager, take any of the following actions:
Press CTRL+ALT+DELETE, and then click Task Manager.
Press CTRL+SHIFT+ESC.
Right-click an empty area of the taskbar, and then click Task Manager.
Once the Task Manager is running, select the Processes tab. On older Windows version you may need to click on the Process Name or Image Name header to sort the process names.
Now right-click on every process that the Flash Player installer needs to close (e.g. iexplore.exe), then select End Process.
It would be desirable if the Flash Player installer could perform that action by itself; I have therefore created an enhancement request. If you were affected by this problem, please head over to the Bugbase and vote for this request: https://bugbase.adobe.com/index.cfm?event=bug&id=3548136

Office 2013 applications will not run as a domain users

I have a windows 7 64-bit pc with 2013 office home and and business installed. When trying to access Office as a domain user the programs will not run. Is there a fix for this other than making the users local admins?

Hi,
Which version of Office 2013 did you deployed, Windows Installer-based version or the Click-to-Run version?
Did you install the Office product with local administrator account? I notice that the users must be local administrators on their computers to install Office:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee624360.aspx
If we add the local admin right to the user, can the Office programs be launched? If so, repair the Office programs and then remove the local admin right. See if it can work.
Best regards,

Program running in the background

Hello!
I am wondering if it is possible to create a java program that runs in the background on a mobile phone. I.E can it run without beeing interuppted by a call or the locking of the key pad.
Is it possible to let the program run without interfering with the normal functionallity of the phone?

There are very few legitimate problem domains that would require what you are asking about. There are illegitimate ones though. And the legitimate ones would generally require someone with quite a bit of programming experience and would also be required (the fact that java can't do it would not get rid of the requirement.)
Thus one might make assumptions about your intentions.

Test program running taking much more time on high end server T5440 than low end server T5220

Hi all,
I have written the following program and run on both T5440 [1.4 GHz, 95 GB RAM, 32 cores(s), 256 logical (virtual) processor(s),] and T5220 [(UltraSPARC-T2 (chipid 0, clock 1165 MH) , 8GB RAM, 1 core, 8 virtual processors )] on same OS version. I found that T5540 server takes more time than T5220. Please find below the details.
test1.cpp
#include <iostream>
#include <pthread.h>
using namespace std;
#define NUM_OF_THREADS 20
struct ABCDEF {
char A[1024];
char B[1024];
void *start_func(void *)
    long long i = 6000;
    while(i--)
                ABCDEF*             sdf = new ABCDEF;
                delete sdf;
                sdf = NULL;
    return NULL;
int main(int argc, char* argv[])
    pthread_t tid[50];
    for(int i=0; i<NUM_OF_THREADS; i++)
                pthread_create(&tid[i], NULL, start_func, NULL);
                cout<<"Creating thread " << i <<endl;
    for(int i=0; i<NUM_OF_THREADS; i++)
                pthread_join(tid[i], NULL);
                cout<<"Waiting for thread " << i <<endl;
After executing the above program on T5440 takes :
real 0.78
user 3.94s
sys 0.05
After executing the above program on T5220 takes :
real 0.23
user 1.43s
sys 0.03
It seems that T5440 which is high end server takes almost 3 times more time than T5220 which is low end server.
However, I have one more observation. I tried the following program :
test2.cpp
#include <iostream>
#include <pthread.h>
using namespace std;
#define NUM_OF_THREADS 20
struct ABCDEF {
char A[1024];
char B[1024];
int main(int argc, char* argv[])
    long long i = 6000000;
    while(i--)
        ABCDEF* sdf = new ABCDEF;
        delete sdf;
        sdf = NULL;
    return 0;
It seems that T5440 server is fast in this case as compaired to T5220 server.
Could anyone please help me out the exact reason for this behaviour as my application is slow as well on this T5440 server. I have posted earlier as well for the same issue.
Thanks in advance !!!
regards,
Sanjay

Fpga: Communicating between fpga and third party program running on pc

I am using a C-Rio to control a planar robotic joystick. The goal is to use the joystick as a force feedback controller for a computer game running on a pc.
My program as is for now runs a program on the fpga to read the encoder values and run the pwm for the motors. An RT program reads those values and performs the control as well as it calculates the fwd and inverse kinematics of the robot.
What I would like to do now is to pass the x-y values of the joystick on a third program (computer game) that runs on a PC.Currently the game runs on LabVIEW but I would the system to be combatible with other programs written in different programming languages. I have been told that the best way of doing this is to setup a server. Is this the only/best way of doing this?
I would like to know what is the best way to communicate between a program running on a pc and a program running on the fpga for this type of application. What is the best way to pass along information from fpga to third party app running on pc and vice versa?
I am sorry if this has been asked before but I couldn't find a relevant thread. Thank you for reading this!
Ares

If you need every command to make it, then you should use TCP. I would recommend taking a look at the STM library that is floating around somewhere on the LabVIEW Tools Network.
