9.1 Customizing the Server Startup
9.1.2 How to Override Incorrect Assumptions
If any of these assumptions is incorrect, you must override them as follows:
1. Make a copy of the file SYS$MANAGER:DECW$PRIVATE_SERVER_
SETUP.TEMPLATE and rename it to a .COM file type. The comments in
this file show how to customize individual workstations by adding a section
of DCL commands for each workstation. You can also add DCL commands
to the common section of the server startup file. By doing this, you ensure
that the customizations you make affect all workstations that use the server
startup file.
2. If your screen supports 100 dots/inch, add the following line:
$ DECW$SERVER_DENSITY == "100"
Add this line to the section for each workstation that has a 100 dots/inch
monitor, or add it to the common section for all workstations (if all the
workstations have 100 dots/inch monitors).
3. If you have upgraded to a VAXstation 4000 but still have a 75 dots/inch
monitor, add the following line:
$ DECW$SERVER_DENSITY == "75"
4. The section for any workstation with color graphics and a monochrome screen
should contain the following lines:
$ DECW$COLOR == "FALSE"
$ DECW$BITONAL == "FALSE"
5. To override the default keyboard layout, determine the correct name from the
model number of your LK201 keyboard, as follows:
a. Turn the keyboard upside down, and look for a label that specifies the
model number. The model number should be in a format similar to
LK201-xx.
If the model number is listed as LK201 without any additional characters,
the information you need is on another part of the label. Look for a
number that has the following format:
nn-nnnnn-xx.
b. Use the xx part of this number to choose a keymap name from Table 9–1.
The table is arranged based on the dialect that each keyboard is designed
for. Choose the keymap ending in _DP for the data processing keyboard
layout, or the keymap ending in _TW for the typewriter layout.
