Global and Local Client Configuration Files

This feature allows administrators to 'lock down' certain options, while allowing other options to be altered by users.

There are three levels of files:

Global: hprdc_admin.sam

Local: hprdc_accessdevice.sam

Personal: hprdc.sam

The order of precedence is:

Personal file is read first.

XPe: Anywhere on file system (double-click hprdc.sam)

XPe search locations used in this order—when one is found, it stops looking:
