Hello,
I’m setting up a new WDM (Ver 5.5.1) and Dell D10D Units in our organization and have two issues with the DCHP Options Tags.
I want to configure the maximum settings needed from the DHCP server side.* I’ve configured Option 162 (FTP Folder) to WTOSCONFIG but on the Thin-Client it appends /wyse to the path that results in error connecting the server.
My server path to the ini files is c:\inetpub\ftproot\Rapport\WTOSCONFIG\WNOS
My workaround was:
1. Change on the WDM WTOS Preferences to WTOSCONFIG/wyse.
2. Create wyse folder under WTOSCONFIG and move to that folder the WNOS folder.
That workaround is working but I need to know if its legal and won’t cause me any problems in the future – upgrading, flashing, distributing packages etc.* I need to configure the FTP Username and Password (Options 184 & 185) but this will lead to security issue cause the password is in plain text.
Is there any way to change that ?Thank you very much in advance.
1. change the value of OT 162 to “WTOSCONFIG$”. This will eliminate the /wyse folder
2. OT 184&185 are both plain text. No way around. If this does not work for you, change to http or httpsCG
Thanks,
Solutions 1 is working perfectly so I’ve rolled back any workaround changes that I’ve made and mentioned in my initial message.
For the OT issue:
I’m using a single server as the WDM witch holds the web server and the ftp server and currently I’m using the following OT:
161, 162, 184, 185, 186, 190 (Secure Port 443)
If I’ll drop the 184,185 OT the client will unable to get the WNOS file ! how can I override this so I wont need to reveal the FTP password in the DHCP server ?10X
To use http instead of ftp, you have to name the protocol in the OT161 like “http://my_fileserver”
Also make sure that the needed MIME settings are created for “.” and “.ini”CG
