To customize ACU, do the following:
1 Open the ACU.INI file located in the folder that you created on the server.
2 Modify the configuration options.
IMPORTANT: We recommend that you use the ACU.INI file instead of the
command line switches used in previous versions of Novell Client. ACU.INI
simplifies the installation process. If you choose to use switches, they will override
ACU.INI options.
Updating the Platform-Specific Configuration Files
NOTE: If you are installing the client with the default settings, you do not need to
create or modify the configuration files. Skip this process and proceed to Chapter
3, “Setting Client Properties,” on page 41.
IMPORTANT: If you use a platform-specific configuration file to configure Novell
Client and you are using ACU.EXE, you must change the [UNATTENDFILE] option
to Yes in the ACU.INI file.
Each platform-specific installation utility reads a configuration file generated
by Novell Client Install Manager in order to configure the client properties.
This file provides information such as where to copy drivers during
installation and the most recent version number. This file must be placed in
the same folder as the installation utility.
[CLIENTLOCAL
INSTALL]
Specifies whether the installation
will be copied to a specified local
directory and run locally.
LocalInstall=Yes | No

LocalDirectory=directory
where you want the
installation copied
(default:
C:\Novell\ClientLocalInstall)
DeleteLocalInstall=Yes | No
(default: No)
HINT: If you want to delete
the files after the installation
is complete, set the
DeleteLocalInstall parameter
to Yes.
