Description

BootOrder=USB;PXE;HardDisk
However, the following settings are invalid:
BootOrder=PXE;HardDisk BootOrder=PXE;PXE;USB
BootOrder=PXE;HardDisk;USB;PXE
If the first boot order is not HardDisk, the system restart will boot from the BIOS
setting.
BootpDisable={no, yes}
Default is no.
BootpDisable — Yes/no option to disable BOOTP requests. ThinOS supports both
DHCP and BOOTP to obtain the network configurations. In the first two attempts,
only DHCP is requested. Then, both DHCP and BOOTP are requested.
For some environments, BOOTP requests will delay obtaining the IP from the DHCP
server. Set BootpDisable=yes will only perform a DHCP request. This setting is only
valid after the next reboot.
CmosPassword=<password>
[encrypt={no, yes}]
CmosPassword — Specifies the BIOS password on supported platforms; string up
to 8 characters.
encrypt — Default is yes. If encrypt=yes, an encrypted string is used as a password
and the password is encoded by Dell Wyse encrypt tool.
CustomInfo={yes, no}
[Custom1=custom1_str]
[Custom2=custom2_str]
[Custom3=custom3_str]
[Location=location_str]
[Contact=contact_str]
Yes/no option to configure or store custom information. If CustomInfo=yes, the
custom information configured by the following options will be stored into NVRAM. If
CustomInfo=no, the custom information in NVRAM will be cleared.
For example:
CustomInfo=yes custom1=11 custom2=2 custom3=3 location=wyse
contact=peter
NOTE: Maximum length is 32 characters.
**DeskColor=”rrr ggg bbb”
Default is “16 100 36”; where DeskColor =“16 100 36” (green) is the default.
Specifies the desktop background color in RGB string format that must be enclosed in
quotes, where rrr, ggg, and bbb are decimal numbers in the rage of 0 to 255. When
using this parameter in a wnos.ini file, it will be saved to NVRAM if EnableLocal is set
to yes in the wnos.ini file.
NOTE:
The MirrorFileServer parameter also supports the DeskColor parameter.
Desktop=bitmap file
[Layout={tile, center, stretch}]
[IconTextColor="rrr ggg bbb"]
Desktop — Specifies a bitmap file to be used as wallpaper for the local desktop. This
file could be a 4-bit, 8-bit, or 24-bit BMP file or a standard GIF file or a standard JPEG
file. The file must be located in the FTP server wnos\bitmap directory. Default is
Wyse wallpaper. To disable the parameter, leave value blank
(Desktop=wysedefault).
When bitmap file is set in wnos.ini, at next restart, the thin client does not show Dell
default wallpaper until INI wallpaper is loaded.
To recover the Dell default wallpaper, set Desktop=DELLDEFAULT in wnos.ini or do a
factory reset.
When the parameter is set to Desktop=WYSEDEFAULT, the old Dell logo wallpapers
that was used in versions earlier than ThinOS build 8.5.0 are loaded.
