NOTE: The required names for each of the configuration files for each platform should be WE8S - WE8SConfig.xml, WES7 - WES7Config.xml, and WES2009 - WES2009Config.xml respectively. If the thin client system is a domain user, then the name of the configuration file should be administrator.xml to enable the domain user client systems to download the configurations.

If you are using the WCM Client to import the files, then you can save the configuration files in a local or remote folder location that is easily accessible by the thin clients.
