Dell Wyse ThinOS Version 8.5 Hotfix Administrator’s Guide

How to set up automatic updates and configurations

For a thin client running ThinOS to successfully access INI files and update itself from a server, you must set up the server with the correct folder structure where the INI files and other update files are located, direct the thin client to the server, and then reboot or start the thin client

Once DHCP and servers are configured and available, the thin client checks (at each boot up) to see whether or not any updates are available on a predefined server DHCP Option #161 specifies the server URL, DHCP Option #162 specifies the root path to the server. If updates are available, the updates are automatically installed.
