    I presume most people are aware of the like of MSCONFIG.EXE

    What other hidden applications is there in XP pro that can be used to tinker under the bonnet as such

    1.0 allows lots of nice things including allowing home users to login to domains - hence they pulled it ...

    sysedit is there somewhere (who said dos was dead,,)
    also create a shortcut to cmd
    and \i386\winnt32 /cmdcons - hand back door to boot into command prompt


    regedit / regedt32 - handle with care..
    eg: winXp can do routing with a reghack
    NT4 had a tick box to do this - now you are supposed to buy a server..

    Sysedit is nothing special though, you can access all the files it accesses through windows explorer like.

    Anything there to optimise networking ?
