beeptest.pl. On the NT4 server, it causes my local PC (remember I'm in
an RDP session) to emit six PC speaker beeps. On the Win2K server, it
runs for the same length of time, but is silent. There could be some
other difference besides one server being NT4 and the other Win2K, but I
don't know what might affect this situation.
Oh ok, this makes a big difference. U want the remote script to beep you
*through* a remote desktop session right? I think this has something to do
with the terminal service settings. I would pour through those and look for
anything about forwarding sound events.
OK, I tried it using an ICA session to the Win2K server now, instead of
an RDP session. That's the typical scenario for our customers. Here's
the result:
When the session starts, I hear the "Windows startup" music. Then my
program runs (not in a console window). It opens a web browser, and I
can go to sites that use sound and hear the sound. But my little timer,
which is supposed to beep, makes no noise.
I tried Tk::Widget's beep(). No sound. I tried Win32::Sound. Nothing. I
tried printing a Ctrl+G from within the program. Nothing. I tried
MessageBeep(DEFAULT). Nothing.
On NT4 though, beep() works.
