Setting the local save feature

By default, users can save configuration changes to their BlueZone emulation clients to their local workstations. BlueZone saves any configuration changes made by the user, such as screen size, color, font selection, keyboard mapping, and so on, to a file located on the user's workstation in the BlueZone working directory.

If you want to prevent your users’ from saving their configuration changes:

  1. Open the Web-to-Host Wizard.
  2. Select a site and click Next.
  3. Select a launch folder and click Next.
  4. Select a session.
  5. Clear the Allow Local Save? check box.
  6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 for all of the sessions that you want to configure.
  7. Click Next.
  8. Click Home to return to the Site window or click Quit to exit the Wizard.
    From this point on, when users access this session, they cannot save the BlueZone emulation client settings locally.

The following table lists the results of the possible combinations of the local save feature and base registry configuration options.

If you make a change to a configuration file, save the new file to the web server, and increment the BlueZone Version Control feature, the next time the user starts the associated session, BlueZone Web-to-Host pushes out the updated configuration file to the user and BlueZone starts using this updated configuration file. If the user does not want to use the settings contained in this new configuration file, the user can select FileOpen from the BlueZone menu bar and open a previously saved configuration file or the Backup of version of their configuration file.
