I would like to change 2 settings for all of the accuterm installs on our network.  I would like to keep any other settings the user has the same.  Is the correct way to do this with a script created in accuterm?

It appears to me that the Session.Hostname and the Session.HistoryRows are the properties that I need to change, but I am not sure how to make a script that does this. 

What is the correct format for something like this?

Hi Ninja -

You can use a simple script to change settings from the host, but those changes would only happen when the user logs on and runs the host program which makes the changes. I don't know a way to "push" the changes to every install.

You are on the right track, but you might have a problem changing the hostname. This may cause the session to disconnect, so the user would need to close and reopen the session. 

SCRIPT='With InitSession':CHAR(25)

SCRIPT=SCRIPT:'.HistoryRows=1000':CHAR(25)

SCRIPT=SCRIPT:'.Hostname="newhostname"':CHAR(25)

SCRIPT=SCRIPT:'.Save':CHAR(25)

SCRIPT=SCRIPT:'End With'

PRINT CHAR(27):CHAR(2):'P':SCRIPT:CHAR(13):

Thanks,

Pete
