saplogon.ini file location question

[Former Member]

Hi, any advice would be appreciated thanks

we have rolled the sap gui 6.40 to all our clients - all using a local copy of the saplogon.ini file in the local windows directory. however we wish to change this approach and have a central saplogon.ini file on a file server and point all the clients to this file.. any changes only then have to be made in one place.

can anyone help me with this, firstly is it possible, and if so how to change the client setting to adjust the location.

many thanks.

Suggested solution directed me towards a different SAP note where i found the answer so was a "Very helpful" solution

Have a look into

Note 38119 - SAPLogon: Administration of functionality

https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/38119

where they describe the search sequence for the saplogon.ini file.

Hi thanks for your link.

The document you pointed me towards led me to SAP note number 756686

which explains that you can edit the SAP icon on your desktop (by right-clicking and opening with notepad) and then adding a line cmd="/ini_file='path to ini file'\saplogon.ini'

Thanks for your assistance.
