Ged, Whilst I applaud your efforts in tidying and advancing ipconfig.c, I must say that I think it is bad form to remove the previously named authors from the header and replace with only your own name.

FW: Issue 3. [Re: [ros-general] ROS-User-Issues]

I'm not talking about how many features you can remove from 9x, or how small and fast you can make it. I'm talking about it's architectural design. The kernel, memory management, GDI. It's inherently insecure and unstable. To take one or two examples: Most of the GDI is nonreentrant. It applies system wide mutex's blocking other threads. Process memory is visible and writable from all other process, meaning any process can potentially corrupt data used by another process. Parts of the kernel mode are writable from user mode. There is no security system worth mentioning. There are many many other design issues and I don't know, and am not about to start listing them all. The NT design solved these issues. > No future for 9x? Microsoft is making threats, but it is > still supporting 9x. They are still supporting it (to an extent) because it's a problem they created, and it has their name written all over it.

by xnavara＠volny.cz 27 Oct '05

This is change is wrong. We start auto-start drivers, but we stop on first failure (see subsys/system/services). You're just workarounding the real problem. - Filip ----- PŮVODNÍ ZPRÁVA ----- Od: gvg(a)svn.reactos.com Komu: ros-diffs(a)reactos.com Předmět: [ros-diffs] [gvg] 18782: Change Tcpip and Afd drivers Datum: 27.10.2005 - 1:28:07 > Change Tcpip and Afd drivers from auto-start to system-start, > since we > don't > auto-start device drivers yet > Modified: trunk/reactos/bootdata/hivesys.inf > _____ > > Modified: trunk/reactos/bootdata/hivesys.inf > --- trunk/reactos/bootdata/hivesys.inf 2005-10-26 23:19:37 UTC > --- (rev > 18781) > +++ trunk/reactos/bootdata/hivesys.inf 2005-10-26 23:26:44 UTC > (rev > 18782) > @@ -365,7 +365,7 @@ > > > HKLM,"SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Afd","ErrorControl",0x00010001,0 > x00000001 > HKLM,"SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Afd","Group",0x00000000,"TDI" > > HKLM,"SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Afd","ImagePath",0x00020000,"sys > tem32\drivers\afd.sys" > -HKLM,"SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Afd","Start",0x00010001,0x00000 > 002 > +HKLM,"SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Afd","Start",0x00010001,0x00000 > 001 > > HKLM,"SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Afd","Type",0x00010001,0x0000000 > 1 > > ; Atapi miniport driver > @@ -615,7 +615,7 @@ > > HKLM,"SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip","ErrorControl",0x00010001 > ,0x00000001 > > HKLM,"SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip","Group",0x00000000,"PNP_T > DI" > > HKLM,"SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip","ImagePath",0x00020000,"s > ystem32\drivers\tcpip.sys" > -HKLM,"SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip","Start",0x00010001,0x000 > 00002 > +HKLM,"SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip","Start",0x00010001,0x000 > 00001 > > HKLM,"SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip","Type",0x00010001,0x00000 > 001 > ; NOTE: These settings should be added by the network setup > ; These bindings are of the windows 2000 type, and will > probably need > to be > -- Volejte za 0,- Kč po celé ČR se službou VOLNÝ TelefoNet.

Perhaps these tools were in for historical purposes, but are now redundant. They aren't currently included in the build, so it wouldn't generate anymore work having them in rosapps and dropping the needed ones into /reactos/modules as opposed to editing /apps/directory.xml Ged. ************************************************************************ The information contained in this message or any of its attachments is confidential and is intended for the exclusive use of the addressee.
