Create links for specific installers
The following examples show full URLs, but you can use relative URLs if
you place the installer les in the downloads directory, which is under the
C:\Program Files\VMware\VMware View\Server\broker\webapps\
directory on View Connection Server, as described in the next step.

Change the URL for the Help link in
the login page
link.help
By default, this link points to a help system hosted on the VMware Web
site. The Help link appears at the boom of the login page.
3 To have users download installers from a location other than the VMware Web site, place the installer
les on the HTTP server where the installer les will reside.
This location must correspond to the URLs you specied in the portal-links-html-access.properties
le or the oslinks.properties le from the previous step. For example, to place the les in a downloads
directory on the View Connection Server host, use the following path:
C:\Program Files\VMware\VMware View\Server\broker\webapps\downloads
The links to the installer les could then use relative URLs with the format /downloads/client-
installer-file-name.
4 Restart the View Web Component service.
