Parameters for wnos INI, {username} INI, and

$MAC INI les

This chapter provides the supported parameters that you can use in a wnos.ini le, a {username}.ini le, and in a $MAC.ini le. For

information to help you construct and use the supported INI les, see Getting Started: Learning INI File Basics

To increase usability such as relation to thin client dialog box equivalents, the supported parameters are separated into the following

categories:

• General Settings for wnos.ini Files, {username} INI, and $MAC INI Files

• Peripheral Settings for wnos.ini Files, {username} INI, and $MAC INI Files

• Connection Settings for wnos.ini Files username INI and MAC INI Files

IMPORTANT:

The underlined value for a parameter is the default value. Some parameters also have options shown within brackets [ ]. If an option

has an underlined value (default), that option and default value will automatically be used with the parameter. The options without

underlined values can also be used if you want to, but are not automatically used with the parameter. In addition, when using

parameters and options, you can leave the default value or change it to another value shown.

For example, in the following case where:

ParameterX={yes, no}

[Option1={0, 1}]

[Option2={1, 2, 3, 4}]

If you use ParameterX, then Option1 and its default value 0 will automatically be used as Option1 has an underlined value (default of 0).

You can still use Option2 if you want to, however, Option2 is not automatically used with the parameter as Option2 does not have a

default (underlined) value.

NOTE:

User prole parameters found in the {username}.ini le generally override the identically named global parameters found in the

wnos.ini le, however, some global parameters in this section noted with * do not allow this. Thus, if the parameters in this section

noted with * are used in both a {username}.ini le and in a wnos.ini le, the noted parameters in the wnos.ini le will override the same

noted parameters in the {username}.ini le.

For example, if the parameter Resolution=1024x768 is used in the {username}.ini le and the same parameter Resolution=1280x1024 is

used in the wnos.ini le, the Resolution=1280x1024 in the wnos.ini le will override the Resolution parameter in the {username}.ini le.

Therefore, if you want the parameter Resolution=1024x768 in the {username}.ini le to be used, you must not use the Resolution

parameter in the wnos.ini le.

NOTE:

Parameters in this section noted with ** that are used in a {username}.ini le or $MAC.ini le will return to the values set for those

parameters in the wnos.ini le after a user sign-o.

For example, if your {username}.ini le contains the parameter MouseSwap=1—so that the mouse buttons are swapped for your left-

hand use and you log o the thin client, then the MouseSwap value will return to the original default value of 0 (MouseSwap=0)

contained in the wnos.ini le—so that others who log in can use their own user prole; assuming the administrator has not changed

the default values in the wnos.ini le.
