Pierre has written some about this topic earlier, how to search in a database for a value:
var-sparades-mitt-varde-i-enova.
Personally, I have made to a habit of NOT thinking about where data is stored. I search for it. Every time I need to reconfigure something or troubleshoot a problem. And it should go fast to search. That way I don’t lose focus on any current task I’m working on. Also, by guessing where data is stored instead of searching, I might not find all places. By searching with a good tool I’m 100% sure I’ve found all places.
How do you find configuration like urls, ip addresses and names? As with any complex Windows based system, configuration is located in three places: Registry, Database, File system. Those are the only places you have to look in.
- Registry. Use Regedit.
- Database. Use my search tool DBSearch.
- File system. Use my search tool mgrep (console based).
