Distributing the CoSign Configuration Overview This The CoSign Configuration utility is a GUI application that enables users or administrators easily and intuitively set any configurable parameters in the CoSign client, as well as view and configure the CoSign Client behavior on the machine on which the utility is running. The utility displays a components tree, in which you can select the component whose configuration values you wish to set. Each component includes several independent groups of parameters, which can be independently set.

Distributing the CoSign Configuration Using Configuration Files The configuration files created by the CoSign Configuration Utility are valid .reg files. You can create these files by exporting a certain machine’s setting. Once the configuration file is created you can distribute it in any of the following ways: • Manually: See the “Distributing the CoSign Configuration Manually” section below • Using Login Scripts or other distributing software: See the “Distributing the CoSign Configuration via Login Scripts or Other Distributing Software” section below.

Distributing the CoSign Configuration Manually Note: You must have administrative rights on the machine in order to apply the configuration values. To distribute the CoSign configuration manually: 1. Copy the appropriate .reg file to the machine on which you want these settings to apply. 2. Double-click the file. A message appears requesting confirmation to apply the new registry values.

3. Double-click the file. A message appears requesting confirmation to apply the new registry values.

4. Click OK Note: Some CoSign components must be restarted in order for the new configuration to take effect, or else they will keep working with the old settings. It is recommended to restart the machine after manually installing a new configuration.

Distributing the CoSign Configuration via Login Scripts or Other Distributing Software Since the configuration file is a .reg file that changes some settings in HKLM, any software or tool that is able to apply .reg files and has the appropriate access rights on the target machine can be used to distribute the CoSign configuration files.
