Naming Xstart Files
When naming an Xstart file, keep the following rules in mind:
- You can use the following characters: Aa-Zz, `_', `-' ,`.' and spaces.
- You cannot use more than 128 characters in the file name.
- You cannot use names that consist solely of dots (.).
- You cannot use a name if it already exists (that is, two global Xstart files or two user-defined start files cannot share a name, but a global Xstart file can have the same name as a user-defined Xstart file).
- You cannot use letter case to differentiate Xstart files on Exceed onDemand Servers for Windows. Only UNIX servers are case sensitive.
To change the name of an Xstart file:
- Depending on when you want to rename the Xstart file, do one of the following to open the Exceed onDemand Xstart Manager dialog box:
- To rename an Xstart file before starting an X sessionIn the Exceed onDemand Client connection dialog box, specify the host (Exceed onDemand Server machine) as well as your user ID and password. In the Configuration area, click the browse button (...) for Xstart.
- To rename an Xstart file after starting an X sessionOn the Exceed onDemand Desktop menu, point to Tools, and click Xstart Manager.
- On the list of Xstart files, select the one you want to rename. Click Rename.
- Type the new name, and press Enter on your keyboard.
