Copy the cloned image to the FTP server and rename the image:
•
"image.dd" (
\\10.10.80.10\c_drive\Inet-
pub\ftproot\neoware\xpe\192\factory\image.dd
Rename the version file name to: "2"

Note: This is to match the Update Version set in Step 2, above. If
the version file name does not match the Update Version setting
that is contained in image.dd, then the XPe appliances will reboot
and run ezUpdate image update continuously. The default Update
Version setting in software update packages distributed by
Neoware is "1."

Profiles are a mechanism for maintaining separate configurations for
otherwise identical Neoware XPe thin client appliances. You can add
as many profiles as you like, but should always leave the
profile intact. Once configured to use a specific profile, at boot-up
the XPe appliance looks to the profile folder for a new image file,
and for new or updated snap-ins.
To create a new profile, add a folder at the same level as the appro-
priate \factory folder and name the new folder the name of the pro-
file. For example: A profile for call-center XPe thin client appliances
(256 MB Flash disk models) might be "callcenter." The full path-
name to the folder would thus be: ftp://servername/neoware/xpe/
256/callcenter
The \callcenter folder should contain these files: 1 (or other update
version file name), snapins.txt, and optionally image.dd. The version
file should be named the same as the Update Version setting in the
