2. Uncomment the UNAME and UPwd values (deleting the semicolons at the beginning of each
line):
UNAME = myLEAPUserName
UPwd = myLEAPPassword
3. Change myLEAPUserName and myLEAPPassword to the correct username and password.
Note that the user name and password should be in quotes. If a domain name is required,
this can be entered in the user name as:
domain\username .
A backslash is used and most setups do not require a domain name even if
Microsoft Windows
®
NT/2000 domains are used.
4. After changing the S24Profiles.reg file, copy the file onto the mobile computer into the
Platform using ActiveSync and overwriting the old file. Then, cold boot the mobile computer
for the changes to take effect.
Cache the Password until a Warm Boot
Cache the password until a warm boot is the default setting. A timeout value can also be set in the
registry. The timeout forces the user to enter the username and password after a power-on if the
device had not gone through the LEAP authentication processes after the set period of time. Normally,
the device goes through the LEAP authentication process at every power-up and every time it roams
between APs.
The timeout setting can be set in minutes using hexadecimal in the registry file. The default setting
of zero disables the timeout feature. To change the timeout setting, edit the registry file using a text
editor (e.g., Notepad) as follows:
1. Ensure the “LCachePwd” value is set to dword:1.
LCachePwd = dword:1
2. If a timeout is desired, change the LTimeoutMinutes value from 00000000 to a desired value.
Examples are provided in the registry file. The following example is for 240 minutes which
is represented as 000000F0 in hexadecimal.
LTimeoutMinutes = dword:000000F0
3. Ensure that the UNAME and UPwd lines are commented out by putting a semicolon at the
beginning of each line.
