4-7-2 Modifying the settings files The settings files can be modified using any of the following methods: • When installing from a USB key, installation dialogs can be used to set both site and local settings-see Section 7-2, "Example installation from the USB key." Site settings are preserved on the USB key, and are applied to every client system installed subsequently from that USB key. • Use Webmin to change values in the local or site settings files. • Use the PSCP program to copy a customized settings file to the /settings directory of the client. • Upgrade Embedded OS 10.xx on a client with customized settings. Site and local settings will be preserved. The software can also extract an initial set of local settings from a client running older software. IMPORTANT: If the settings files are modified directly (for example, by using PSCP), the new settings will not take affect until after the client computer is rebooted. 4-8 Specifying a new background image The steps to specify a new background image on the monitor are as follows: 1. From another computer on the network, use PSCP to copy the new background image to the client /root/user/backgrounds directory. For example: pscp C:\pics\waterlilies.jpg [email protected]:/root/user/backgrounds 2. Right click on the client desktop. 3. Select Background Image, and then select the tiling method for stretching the image across the monitor. The first image (alphabetically) found in the /root/user/backgrounds directory is used to set the background image. To minimize wasted space, unused background images should be deleted. 25

4-7-2 Modifying the settings files
The settings files can be modified using any of the following methods:
•
When installing from a USB key, installation dialogs can be used to set both site and local settings—see
Section 7-2, “
Example installation from the USB key
.”
Site settings are preserved on the USB key, and are
applied to every client system installed subsequently from that USB key.
•
Use Webmin to change values in the local or site settings files.
•
Use the PSCP program to copy a customized settings file to the
/settings
directory of the client.
•
Upgrade Embedded OS 10.xx on a client with customized settings.
Site and local settings will be
preserved.
The software can also extract an initial set of local settings from a client running older software.
IMPORTANT:
If the settings files are modified directly (for example, by using PSCP), the new settings will not
take affect until after the client computer is rebooted.
4-8 Specifying a new background image
The steps to specify a new background image on the monitor are as follows:
1.
From another computer on the network, use PSCP to copy the new background image to the client
/root/user/backgrounds
directory. For example:
pscp
C:\pics\waterlilies.jpg
[email protected]:/root/user/backgrounds
2.
Right click on the client desktop.
3.
Select
Background Image
, and then select the tiling method for stretching the image across the monitor.
The first image (alphabetically) found in the
/root/user/backgrounds directory
is used to set the
background image. To minimize wasted space, unused background images should be deleted.
