How to Set Up Automatic Updates and Configurations
For a thin client running ThinOS to successfully access INI files and update itself from a
server, you must set up the server with the correct folder structure (where the INI files
and other update files are located), direct the thin client to the server, and then reboot
or start the thin client.
After DHCP and servers are configured and available, the thin client checks (at each
boot up) to see whether or not any updates are available on a predefined server (
DCHP
Option #161
specifies the server URL,
DCHP Option #162
specifies the root path to the
server). If updates are available, the updates are automatically installed.
Step 1: Prepare the Root Directory and Folder Structure on the Server
Set up the following folder structure on your server under the C:/inetpub/ftproot folder
(for FTP) or C:/inetpub/wwwroot folder (for HTTP or HTTPS) and place your INI files
and other necessary files inside the structure as noted (this list describes the folder
structure, starting with the root directory).
/wyse/
(Required)
The root directory. It stores the wnos folder.
/wyse/wnos
(Required)
The main INI configuration folder.
It stores the wnos.ini file, $MAC.ini file, firmware, and the
following optional folders:
•
bitmap folder
•
cacerts folder
•
font folder
•
inc folder
•
ini folder
•
locale folder
•
trace folder
/wyse/wnos/bitmap
(Optional) The folder where you can place custom images
you plan to use.
/wyse/wnos/cacerts
(Optional) The folder where you can place the CA certificates
that can be imported to a thin client.
Note:
Use the AddCertificate INI parameter in the wnos.ini file
to import the certificates to thin clients.
/wyse/wnos/font
(Optional) The folder where you can place font files for
languages that require the file (Chinese Simplified, Chinese
Traditional, Japanese, Korean).
/wyse/wnos/inc
(Optional) The folder where you can place the mac.ini files
(note that the use of the parameter
Include=$mac.ini will load “/
wnos/inc/mac-address.ini” so that you can use inc in the folder
structure and use $MAC.ini).
/wyse/wnos/ini
(Optional) The folder where you can place the {username}.ini
files and {group} folder.
/wyse/wnos/locale
(Optional) The folder where you can place locale message
files.
/wyse/wnos/trace
(Optional) The folder where you can place the trace files that
you can capture and play back (be sure to enable the
parameter, EnableTrace=yes).
