Add Logo to WebAccess Template

Novell Cool Solutions: Question & Answer

Posted: 3 Sep 2002

Q:
Is it possible to modify the WebAccess web page? I want to add our company name and logo.



A:

Yes, ModWeb creates a logo subdirectory underneath the modweb directory. (On NetWare: Sys:system\modweb\logo, on Solaris /opt/NOVLnims/bin/modweb/logo and on Linux /usr/local/nims/bin/modweb/logo)

In this directory, store the logo file and make the filename a number, but keep the proper extension (.gif or .jpg). Example: 1.gif.

Then use a NDS editor and add the following value to the ?Novonyx:Configuration? attribute on the Modular Web Agent object: Logo=<your number>

When ModWeb is reloaded next time, it will put your logo into the designated places on the templates.

You can also edit the template sources and generate templates that have hard coded logos.

See #164 in the NIMS FAQ for details.
