Windows Got Ya Down? Try a Remix By Joel Johnson, 02:00 AM Aug. 23, 2005 PT
Remixed versions of Windows abound on file-sharing networks, supercharged with the latest security patches, tools and applications.
Pirated copies of Microsoft's operating system have existed as long as chintzy PC owners themselves. But now pirates are doing more than just cracking Windows -- they claim to be improving it.
There's a lot of extra space on a standard Windows XP CD, especially if the downloadable disc images (the standard format for distributing pirated operating systems) are designed to be burned to DVD. That leaves room to add a whole library of complementary software -- even multiple versions of Windows.
The Super WinPE Ultimate Boot CD 2004 Pro, readily available on file-sharing networks like BitTorrent, offers seven different versions of Windows XP on a single DVD.
How to set your network, gateway, and DNS IP address from the MSDOS command line?
In order to automate setting the IP address, e.g. by using this
commands in a batch file, or by having to switch quickly between
different IP settings (e.g. for your laptop when having to connect to
the network on different locations, and so needing different IP
settings) you can use the the netshell command:
netsh
-to set the IP address, type the following:
netsh interface ip set address name= source= addr= mask=
for example :
netsh interface ip set address name="Local Area Connection" source=static addr=10.0.0.254 mask=255.255.255.0
