78 Typical Use Case Scenarios
Case 2 - Using Multiple Configuration Files for Multiple Thin Client Users
If you have multiple thin client systems with the same operating system
installed on them (WE8S,WES7, or WES2009), you can create multiple user
specific configuration files and configure other thin clients running the same
operating system.
To perform this activity:
1
Log in as Administrator into the thin client systems.
2
Ensure that the thin client systems have the latest version of WCM Client
installed on them.
3
Configure multiple thin client systems using the Operating System
functions.
4
Use the
Export Configuration
option on the WCM Client to export the
configuration files to a remote location on the Repository Server. For more
information, see Exporting Thin Client Configurations.
5
Ensure that you place the configuration files in user specific folders on the
Repository Server.
The other thin clients running WE8S, WES7, WES2009 run the WCM
Client to retrieve and apply user specific configuration files through the
network using their specified user log-in credentials.
Case 3 - Editing Specific Configuration Files for Thin Client Users
If you have created user specific configuration files for thin client users, then
you can edit specific files and update the configurations as per the request of
the users and enable them to update their systems.
To perform this activity:
1
Log in as Administrator into the specific thin client system where you have
created a user specific configuration file.
2
Change the configuration of the system using the Operating System
functions.
