Parameters for wnos INI, {username} INI, and

$MAC INI files

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

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

NOTE:

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 profile parameters found in the {username}.ini file generally override the identically named global parameters

found in the wnos.ini file, 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 file and in a wnos.ini file, the noted parameters

in the wnos.ini file will override the same noted parameters in the {username}.ini file.

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

Resolution=1280x1024 is used in the wnos.ini file, the Resolution=1280x1024 in the wnos.ini file will override the

Resolution parameter in the {username}.ini file. Therefore, if you want the parameter Resolution=1024x768 in the

{username}.ini file to be used, you must not use the Resolution parameter in the wnos.ini file.

NOTE:

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

set for those parameters in the wnos.ini file after a user sign-off.

For example, if your {username}.ini file contains the parameter MouseSwap=1—so that the mouse buttons are swapped

for your left-hand use and you log off the thin client, then the MouseSwap value will return to the original default value

of 0 (MouseSwap=0) contained in the wnos.ini file—so that others who log in can use their own user profile; assuming

the administrator has not changed the default values in the wnos.ini file.
