Setting | Description |
Driver | Click the appropriate preference driver to use. Supported values are none (use system |
| defaults and not save any user information), session (user preferences are saved |
| using sessions and are only valid during this login), or sql (use a database to save |
| preferences so they persist for a user between logins). The rest of the options are |
| required only if you are using the sql driver. |
Database type | Enter the type of database server you are using. The only supported setting is pgsql |
| for a PostgreSQL database. |
Host | Enter the hostname of the database server. This defaults to localhost. |
Username | Enter the database user name to use to connect. Changing this entry will change only |
| the IMP settings and not the database permissions. |
Password | Enter the password for the user specified above. This will change only the IMP |
| configuration and not that of the database. |
Database name | Enter the name of the database containing the preference table. |
Preference table | Enter the name of the table containing preference data. |
