Version Checking
The client must maintain user and system-level settings versions. This level of revision control is
necessary because all settings are applied to all users except for Internet proxy settings. If a version
of the settings has been applied to the system, each new user will also process the same file (if
DHCP-based) and apply the proxy settings (if any). If no user-level processing is required (in other
words, no [Internet] section), then EWF will not be committed and the shutdown option will not be
processed.
