In a previous post we talked about how you could configure the Quest vWorkpspace client to automatically get configured. The actual configuration is stored in a file called CONFIG.XML. Basically every single client setting can be controlled trough CONFIG.XML. Our support engineer Stephen Yorke provided us with a ton of infomation so this post describes all the different settings that are available, what they mean and what possible values they can have. Use this document as a guideline to create your own CONFIG.XML. Do not use it as a source CONFIG.XML. Use the sample CONFIG.XML located on each vWorkspace Connection Broker at C:\Program Files\Quest Software\Provision-IT as the source for your customer CONFIG.XML.
