Specifying WebAccess Client Themes

The GroupWise WebAccess client has the capability to support different color schemes called themes. You can change the default themes from within the WEBACC.CFG files. You accomplish this task by performing the following steps:

1.	Edit the WEBACC.CFG file. On a NetWare server this file is typically found in the SYS:\NOVELL\WEBACCESS directory. On a Linux server, this file is typically found at /opt/novell/groupwise/webaccess. Be sure to keep the case of the file lowercase on the Linux platform. Note You might see several WEBACC.CFG.X files in this directory as well. These are backup copies of the WEBACC.CFG file. You are interested in the WEBACC.CFG file, because this is the file that the Application reads for its configuration information.
2.	Identify the following section of this file: ## 1 - Sky Blue (default) # 3 - Blue # 4 - Olive Green # 5 - Silver # 6 - Spring Green # 7 - Sterling Silver Theme.index=1
3.	Modify the Theme.index line to indicate the theme color you would like. For example, for Spring Green the line should read like this: Theme.index=6
4.	Save the changes to the webacc.cfg file.
5.	Shut down the WebAccess Application and restart it. Tip If you are running the Application on NetWare 6 or newer with the Tomcat33 or Tomcat4 servlet engine, you can simply issue the following commands on the NetWare server console: java killall java exit tomcat33 or tomcat4 This will shut down just the servlet engine and then restart it. On the Linux platform the command will typically be this: /var/opt/novell/tomcat4/bin/catalina.sh stop /var/opt/novell/tomcat4/bin/catalina.sh start
6.	Now when users access GroupWise WebAccess, the theme color will be Spring Green. You have now changed the default theme.
