About Sconfig
Users in an enterprise often have different software needs even within applications, and, therefore, may require tailored installations of Hummingbird software to meet those needs. For example, some users may require Hummingbird product features, such as Telnet and FTP setting files, to connect to frequently used hosts, while other users have no need for this functionality. Instead, some users may require specific font settings and features to be installed with their Hummingbird products.
Sconfig works with Microsoft Windows Installer database files (.msi and .mst) to let you create tailored installations of Hummingbird software for users with different needs.
Sconfig lets you:
- Customize the directories in which the product is installed, and add custom folders.
- Tailor the list of applications or components to be installed. You can alter the list to limit the functionality available to users, or to optimize the use of disk space.
- Simplify user input during installation by preselecting information, such as the properties of the software being installed.
- Provide a uniform user experience, and maintain a uniform system configuration across the network.
