Back in the good old times there was boost::build v1, which I was more or less able to comprehend. Now I've installed boost v1.35 it seems that only boost::build v2 is available; I'm sure it rocks and so on, but I've struggled TOO MUCH to make it work. Me being a dumbass? Quite likely.

But at long last I was able to put all the pieces together:

1. Find tools/build/v2/user-config.jam under boost root
2. Uncomment the using msvc ;
3. Find the stlport line and write something like using stlport : : STLPORTPATH\stlport STLPORTPATH\lib ;
4. Place bjam.exe into boost root
5. Run bjam msvc/variant=debug,release/threading=multi/stdlib=stlport/link=shared,static/runtime-link=shared stage

This shit will build debug and release, static and dynamic libraries linked to dynamic C runtime.

I have a few NICs on a machine, so I told Microsoft SQL Server 2005 - 9.00.3042.00 (Intel X86) not to bind on every interface but only one. So far so good.
Unfortunately I had the BAAAD idea to change this NIC IP Address. Old IP was 192.168.0.103, new IP is 192.168.6.65. When I try to start the service with commandline sqlservr.exe -sSQLEXPRESS where's what I get

Server failed to listen on 192.168.0.103  1433. Error: 0x2741. To proceed, notify your system administrator.

Standard useless error message. Ok, there must be this old address configured somewhere. In the registry, of course. Just searched throughout the whole registry and found:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.1\MSSQLServer\SuperSocketNetLib\Tcp

Here you'll find subkeys named IP1 to IPSomeNumber. If one refers to an unbindable address just set Enabled or Active to 0.
