1 megabyte = how many bytes?

Probably doesn't belong in Highly Technical, but here goes: The size of a Megabyte (and a kilobyte, for that matter) really depends on who you ask. If you ask a HD manufacturer, it's 1000 bytes/kb and 1000 kb/mb. Ask an OS or a disk utility, and the answer is 1024bytes/kb and 1024 kb/mb...

Should there be such a file as "rundll32.EXE"???

I've got it in C:\windows under Win98SE. My guess would be that the .exe is what powers the dll as dlls can't be executed by themselves. Again, it's just a guess.

PHP help

Normal users don't normally have /usr/sbin in their path. Try moving your script (or a copy of it) to /usr/bin, or some other place that normal users can access.

Multiple Inboxes with Outlook Express or normal Outlook?

You need to setup something called a "rule" and tell Outlook to move all messages from each account to a different folder that you create. The "rules wizard" makes this process fairly easy.

How to load a whole program into RAM?

Ummm... what would this accomplish? Windows won't dip into swap space until you run out of regular RAM anyway. Example: 1)You have 1GB of RAM. Windows has 1GB of RAM to work with. 2)You have 1GB of RAM. Windows has 500MB of RAM + 500MB of swap space stored in RAM. In both scenarios...

Help - Unable to ping from outside terminal

XP has a built-in firewall. It may be the source of your troubles. Does the ping actually say that it was blocked, or just that it timed out? If it just timed out, verify your ip in ipconfig.

C++ : Searching a file for a line starting with the search term

The thing that makes the number unique is that it is at the begining of the line and starts with a space, correct? So, just iterate throgh the file, loading each new line into an apstring ::shudder:: Then, to see if it's what you're looking for do: char stringWithNumber[16]; //assuming all...

Differences between v.92 and v.90

The actual name is Modem On Hold, but that's the general idea. V.92 also adds "quick-connect," which can shorten the time it takes your modem to establish a connection with the remote one.

A+ materials

I don't know of any books as I never used any, but I do have one piece of advice: the correct answer is never there. Therefore, go with the "Comp/TIA" answer, which is usually the most archaic and obscure one there. Also, know your stages of laser printing, the DOS boot sequence (yes, I said...

How does samba work w/windows machines...

Is it setup to require users to login with a l/p or is it open to everyone? If it's password-required, make sure the encrypt passwords option is ON. It took me two weeks to figure that out with my network.
