Custom Script: C1038
Overview:
This custom script is used
for IBM Client Access program with 5250 emulation (AS/400). After Client Access
is installed, this custom script will dynamically update settings stored in the
".ws" file on the client. This script includes the following settings:
WorkStationID, HostName, UserTitle and Printer, but can be easily edited to
include others.

(Instructions on how to install a
custom script)
When you combine this script with
the functionality of the Shortcuts Tab (to create desktop or quick launch bar
shortcut to the program) and the Registry Tab (to setup the environment for
Client Access), any user logging into any workstation (where Client Access is
installed) will be instantly and correctly configured to start using Client Access.
The following registry
entries need to be customized for your environment, so you should examine the
registry settings of a computer that has been manually configured. Then plug the
appropriate data into the corresponding values and you are ready to go.
Remember that a new
installation of Client Access creates a default environment called "Primary Environment".
You can use the following registry entries to customize this default or create a
completely new environment name.
