  1. Toss in a rundll by CedgeS · · Score: 1 · on Microsoft States Full TCP/IP Too Dangerous

    Try these to get rid of all that Internet exploder crud:

    runas /user:Administrator@domain "RUNDLL32.EXE SHELL32.DLL,Control_RunDLL MAIN.CPL @2"

    Windows 2000:

    runas /user:Administrator@domain "RUNDLL32.EXE SHELL32.DLL,SHHelpShortcuts_RunDLL PrintersFolder"

    Rundll is excellent, anyone know something similar like runso for Linux? I know I could toss one together with forth, but it should already be there somewhere.

  2. More Shameless Plugging by CedgeS · · Score: 2, Informative · on True Stories of Knoppix Rescues
    I know I've done this before, but here's my guide to recovering and rescuing data using Knoppix. I just updated it about a week ago for version 3.7, and the new instructions and images haven't made their way into knoppix.net's wiki yet.

    People are using knoppix for this all the time; I can tell by the amount of email I deal with on the subject.

  3. Re:Sounds comprehensive by CedgeS · · Score: 2, Interesting · on Knoppix Hacks
    I made this guide, which is sadly in need of an update*. One of the most frequent email questions I get is, "Help - I lost my partition table, how do I get it back"? There's a great utility included in knoppix called gpart that searches the hard drive for partitions and constructs a new partition table. It also makes backups of master boot records. Its amazing all of the stuff they've thought to include.

    * If anyone wants to mail me a copy of the newest knoppix cd I'll update it. I hate downloading ISO images. My address is 888 E 18th Ave, Apt 8. Eugene, OR 97401.

  4. ...and if you're using some OTHER OS... by peteforsyth · · Score: 1 · on System Recovery with Knoppix
    ...Knoppix could still be helpful in recovering data, etc.

    Sigh. I guess it's about time for me to update the Knoppix data rescue guide on how to use knoppix to rescue data off dying windows machines.

  6. Knoppix Data Recovery for Grandma by CedgeS · · Score: 5, Informative · on Knoppix Tips and Tricks

    Knoppix is excellent for data rescue and recovery work. This data recovery howto for Knoppix has proved invaluable for many of my friends. It has also been translated into Polish

  7. Re:Not needed for basic reading by stm2 · · Score: 1 · on Using the Real ntfs.sys Driver Under Linux

    Yes, Knoppix NTFS support works with large filenames (I think it even works with compressed filesystems) but Knoppix NTFS support is good enought to be use it as a Resq CD for Windows.
    Read it here: Computer First Aid Using Knoppix and this is a small post I made about it (in Spanish): Rescatando datos de Windows usando Knoppix Linux

  8. The best tool :) by hunte · · Score: 5, Informative · on System Recovery with Knoppix

    I'm a very happy Knoppix user, IMHO is the final swiss knife!

    Here a small list of very powerful features:

    - NTFS (safe read only) support + all FS support
    - the linux fdisk
    - qtparted for working with partitions (like Partition Magic, but GPL)
    - partimage (like Norton Ghost, but GPL)
    - the cool LinNeighborhood (for easy windows/samba usage)
    - diagnose all hardware with the knoppix auto-detect kernel
    - all the best network diagnosis tools (nmap, nessus, tcpdump, ethereal, etc)
    - vim
    - kde
    - easy support of external usb2/firewire external drives
    - 1174 packages on a single autoboot CD

    (is present a DVD version too on ftp!!!!!)
