The automation and dematerialization of monetary exchanges are not objectives per se, but are solely means to improve the productivity of financial institutions. In this regard, an overabundance of standards, and sometimes their competition, may constitute a barrier to the establishment of electronic commerce. Even if some manufacturers think they can profit from this situation, […]
How Legal Wire tapping Works
CALEA requires that communications providers allow law enforcement officials to be able to listen in on phone conversations and get information about those phone calls, but only when the law enforcement agency has gotten approval for the tap.
The law enforcement agency goes before a judge and presents reasons a wiretap is […]
Throughout the history of the United States, one of the greatest political tensions has been that which balances personal privacy against the need for law enforcement to protect individuals and the country as a whole.
That tension has been with us from the very earliest days of the Republic. The Founding Fathers were extremely cognizant of […]
In this section we will build a very basic front end that makes a connection to our database, validates a user’s login, and retrieves (searches for) data. Although this is just a start, it will provide the building blocks you need to develop it further for your own needs.
This unlike the others, is more like […]

Shrinking a transaction log is a little different from shrinking a data file. The main difference is when the process occurs.
When a data file is shrunk, the task is performed almost immediately, whereas with a transaction log it is not. The log file is marked, so SQL Server 2000 knows that it needs to be […]
A client network utility tool allows us to change the way that a client machine talks to SQL Server 2000.
On our installation all that is really available to us is TCP/IP, but on a Windows NT/2000 machine, we see several other protocols. The most common, other than TCP/IP, is Named Pipes. See Appendix B, “Installing […]
It gives me a chance to rave about some of the cool new functionality in SQL Server 2000. Plus, I can show you some of the things that are not totally relevant to our application but that you definitely will want to know as you continue developing and maintaining SQL Server.
Although the enhancements to the […]
The introduction of SQL Server 2000 enables us to have multiple instances of SQL Server running on a single machine. In the past we only had one instance of SQL Server, which in SQL Server 2000 is called the Default instance. Now we can have as many named instances as we want. Microsoft has tested […]

Indexes, like triggers, have always been a part of SQL Server but now we have even more features that we can take advantage of when creating indexes.
One of the biggest changes is allowing us to have an index on a computed column. A computed column is the answer from a sum. For example, consider a […]
As you move into a multi-user environment, security, user, and resource management will become key to the performance and integrity of your application. Some of these security features are available on Windows 2000 only.
Understanding Kerberos and Security Delegation
Unfortunately, we cannot take advantage of these new enhancements. We are not running Windows 2000—maybe that’s a good […]

To finish the development of our Spy Net application, we must install a Web server of some sort onto our machines. We must set up our machine as a Web server so that we can leverage the deployment of the interface. The installation of Personal Web Server (PWS) for Windows 98 is covered in this […]

If you ask a typical consumer about wireless communications, you might hear about Wi-Fi or wireless Ethernet, but it’s just as likely that cell phones, smartphones, or PDAs with onboard wireless networking would also be part of the conversation. These devices offer web browsing, email, video and still image capture, and text messaging, and they […]
Creating an Address Scope
After you have authorized a server on the network, you can create a scope of addresses that the DHCP server can administer to clients. From the MMC utility, click once on the server you want to administer, and then select New Scope from the Action menu. The New Scope Wizard pops up. […]
