Revision as of 15:17, 4 November 2023

For the Windows NT 4.0 build, see Windows NT 4.0/4.0.1175.1.

**4.0.1175.1**

Kernel version	4.0
CPU architecture	x86
Edition	Advanced Server
Compile date	1st December 1995

Windows Cairo build 1175.1 is a build of Microsoft Cairo. It was leaked by The Distractor on BetaArchive on 17 March 2017.^[1]

Setup

cairo.inf, in C:\winnt\system32, defines the portions where setup differs from Windows NT 4.0 build 1175.

Bugs

This build will hang on the "Preparing Your Installation" window if the hard disk used is a virtual hard disk (VHD). Using an IMG file as hard disk solves this.^[2]

Logging in requires the network adapter to be connected. If not, then nothing will load past the Welcome login window.^[3]

Windows Explorer hangs on the first login after every boot. Therefore, after every boot, it is necessary to log in, open the Task List by typing Ctrl+Alt+Del, logging off, end task of explorer.exe when prompted, then log in again.^[3]^[4]

Features

OFS

Setup prompts the formatting of a disk to OFS format,^[1]^[5] which should not be the system drive.^[6] Booting from an OFS partition can lead to hanging.^[7]^[6]

cifilter.exe, in C:\Winnt\system32\ is the OFS CI Filter service. As an NT service, it cannot be run as a console application.

DS

The build contains Domain Space (DS) features, such as the DS Browser (dsadmin.exe) in C:\Winnt\system32, which resembles the Active Directory (AD) Users and Computers snap-in in Windows 2000 Server and beyond.

The DS Manager Tool (DSMgr.exe), also in system32, contains the following instructions:

====DSMGR Usage====================================================
To create accounts for a specific machine:
dsmgr -file <.inf file>		see eg:
			\\savik\win40\src\csetup\accounts/inf
	[-domain <target domain>] // org:\...style , default to current domain

-----Account operations-----
Create local user: dsmgr -localuser <user object name>

-----Other operations-----
Stress:
	dsmgr -stress <numbers of users to create>
Groups:
	dsmgr -groups -file <.inf file>
Cleanup:
	dsmgr -cleanup -file <.inf file>
Set password:
	dsmgr -setpass <path to ds object>
Change password:
	dsmgr -changepass <path to ds object>
Change max password age:
	dsmgr -maxage
Find account with substring in principal name:
	dsmgr -accfind <string>
Save important account properties:
	dsmgr -accsave <file>
Restore important account properties:
	dsmgr -accrestore <file>
N.B. must be in security folder for both above
Change account attributes:
	dsmgr -accattr <account> <decimal attributes>
Get recursive binding statistics:
	dsmgr -bindstats [-jct] [start directory] [file spec]
			[-jct] - Open junction point flag.
Account verification <must run in security dir>:
	dsmgr -accfind -verify
Edit Object:
	dsmgr -edit <filename>
Add User Object:
	dsmgr -createuser <full path to user object>
Delete Object (Public and Private):
	dsmgr -delete <full path to object>
List accounts modified since a particular day <must run in security dir>:
	dsmgr -accfind -modified mm/dd/yy
List accounts created since a particular day <must run in security dir>:
	dsmgr -accfind -created mm/dd/yy


-DDO <DomainName> <Action>		[Action Specific Params]
-DDO <DomainName> Create
-DDO <DomainName> Delete
-DDO <DomainName> GetMode
-DDO <DomainName> Migrate
-DDO <DomainName> SetInboundPwd		<Password>
-DDO <DomainName> GetReplicationSite
-DDO <DomainName> SetReplicationSite		<Site>
-DDO <DomainName> EnumTrustedDomains
-DDO <DomainName> GetMigrationBdcName
-DDO <DomainName> SetMigrationBdcName		<BdcName>
-DDO <DomainName> AddTrustedDomain		<INBOUND|OUTBOUND> <Domain Name>
-DDO <DomainName> RemoveTrustedDomain		<INBOUND|OUTBOUND> <Domain Name>

-bind [-<openflags>[+<shareflags>]] <file>
	where openflags is:
		d == STGM_DIRECT
		t == STGM_TRANSACTED
		s == STGM_SIMPLE
		r == STGM_READ
		w == STGM_WRITE
		b == STGM_READWRITE
	where shareflags is:
		n == STGM_SHARE_DENY_NONE
		r == STGM SHARE DENY READ
		w == STGM_SHARE_DENY_WRITE
		e == STGM_SHARE_EXCLUSIVE
		p == STGM PRIORITY
		d == STGM_DELETEONRELEASE
		s == STGM_NOSCRATCH
		c == STGM_CREATE
		v == STGM_CONVERT
		f == STGM_FAILIFTHERE

====================================================================

Also in system32, accounts.inf can be used in dsmgr -file to generate the accounts listed in it. This process generates dsmgr.log at C:\Winnt\.

The INF uses the term "OU", later used in AD to refer to "organizational units".
