NTSet ActiveX

Description

NTSet ActiveX, v2.06

Due to a great success of our product "Component Set for Windows NT/2000" for for Delphi/C++Builder and numerous requests from programmers all over the world, we decided to port the product to an ActiveX version. The ActiveX version is a separate product, which is developed in parallel with other versions. We are planning to increase the number of components in all versions simultaneously.

NTSet ActiveX, v2.06 includes 6 ActiveX controls which are also described separately in the category Development Tools / ActiveX. This page just unites these separate descriptions (i.e. you may find the same information when visiting each control's separate description page).

AxNTEventLog: This component significantly simplifies the access to Windows NT event log. The component enables you to create your own event log analyzers that will perform specific monitoring tasks. A centralized event handling across the network can be written with just a few keystrokes. The installation package has a sample project demonstrating the main features of NTEventLogX component.

AxNTService: The component interacts with Windows NT services on local or remote computers. It may start, stop, delete, create and configure services. Now network administrators can relax configuring services on remote servers while sitting in front of their own computers. A sample project in Visual Basic implements a service manager, which can configure services much more subtly than the original one, that can be found in Control Panel.

AxNTUserMan: The component allows to manage users’ accounts on local and remote Windows NT servers and workstations easily. The functionality of our component includes nearly all related functions of Windows NT API and by far surpasses the standard abilities of Windows NT user manager. The component has equally full functionality at both design and run time and works under both Windows NT and Windows 95/98. An example in Visual Basic is provided.

AxNTPrivilege: The component edits the list of privileges (user rights) assigned to the user's account or process. It can also edit the list of accounts holding the given privilege.The component is intended for Windows NT only and WILL NOT work under Windows 95/98.

AxNTFileSecurity: AxNTFileSecurity control is one of the most sophisticated, yet simple to use tools for controlling file access rights on NTFS partitions. Now, with just a few keystrokes you can assign 'access allowed', 'access denied' and “system audit” rights. This job requires dozens of function calls, numerous pages of code, if you go through pure API programming. The control has equal functionality at both design and run time and operates with files on the local and remote disks. It may work under Windows 95 to manage files on remote NTFS partitions.

AxNTRegSecurity: The simplest way for potential intruders is to write something into startup section of the registry. A number of trojans work this way. This can be done via network, without being physically present at the attacked computer! Having tested our Windows network we discovered that half of all workstations had their registry open for everyone! The system registry has some vital keys which, if tampered with, make a security breach, destroy data. You can easily monitor the registry on the local or remote computer with our AxTNTRegSecurity control. It is another descendant of the common ancestor of all components which deal with different aspects of Windows NT security.


Note: You can download and register each ActiveX control separately. Each separate ActiveX control costs US$ 29 (the whole product - NTSet ActiveX - costs US$ 62).

  • The collection of ActiveX controls has a new control called AxNTRegSecurity.
  • AxNTUserMan has a method GetLocalGroupMembers. In fact, this method served as a read method for LocalGroupMembers property before. Now it is published and you can use it directly. This gives you more control over returned accounts. Now you may request only user members of local group, only global groups that are members of local group, return the accounts where group are substituted with their members and more.
  • AxNTEvenLog: each item in the event log now has additional properties for the time when generated and the time written. They represent local time for the computer, while old ones show UTC time.
  • All the controls in the ActiveX library have got a few new features: Method EnumServers. This method extends functionality of GetServers method. It also returns a list of servers found on network, but allows to specify the kind of servers to be searched for. For example you may request Windows NT Servers only. The rest (Windows NT Workstations, Windows 98 computers and others) will be ignored.
