Customize the OS Design – The Registry
The registry plays a key role in controlling how the Compact 7 OS run-time behave, loads driver,
application and more. Improper registry entries can cause series problem and can cause the system
failing to complete the boot process.
In the earlier steps, the FTP server and Telnet server components were included to the OS design. In
order for these components to function as intended, appropriate registry entries need to be added
to the OS design project.
Registry Entries for FTP Server Component
By default, the FTP server is not configured to launch during startup. For the exercise in this
guide, the following registry entries need to be added to the OS design and configure the FTP
server to launch during startup, with user authentication disabled and allow anonymous login:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\COMM\FTPD]
"IsEnabled"=dword:1
"UseAuthentication"=dword:0
"UserList"="@*;"
"AllowAnonymous"=dword:1
"AllowAnonymousUpload"=dword:1
"AllowAnonymousVroots"=dword:1
"DefaultDir"="\\"
Registry Entries for the Telnet Server Component
By default, the Telnet server is not configured to launch during startup. For the exercise in this
guide, the following registry entries are added to configure the Telnet server to launch during
startup and allow anonymous login:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\COMM\TELNETD]
"IsEnabled"=dword:1
"UseAuthentication"=dword:0
Registry Entries for the AutoLaunch Component
When the AutoLaunch component is added to the OS design, the following registry entries are
added to the project as part of the AutoLaunch component, to launch the AutoLaunch.exe
executable during startup:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Init]
"Launch99"="AutoLaunch.exe"
"Depend99"=hex:0a,00,14,00
When the AutoLaunch utility launches, it searches the following registry key and launch
application with proper entries under this key:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Startup]
As part of the AutoLaunch_v300_Compact7 release, two sub-components are included which
you can select and include CoreCon connectivity and Remote Display application components to
the OS design. “Process0” and “Process1” under the HKLM\Startup key are used by these two
components.
To configure the AutoLaunch utility to launch other application component, start with
“Process2” as follow:
