Netscape 3.0

III-45 If you want to fiddle with the Netscape Navigator bookmark file or address book, these registry entries show you where the values are stored.

Hive: HKEY_CURRENT_USER
Key: Software\Netscape\Netscape Navigator\Bookmark List
Value Name: File Location
Data Type: REG_SZ
Value: < fully qualified path and file name >

III-46 Value Name: Add URLs Under
Data Type: REG_SZ
Value: Top Level Listing

III-47 Value Name: Start Menu With
Data Type: REG_SZ
Value: Entire Listing

III-48 Hive: HKEY_CURRENT_USER
Key: Software\Netscape\Netscape Navigator\Address Book
Value Name: File Location
Data Type: REG_SZ
Value: < fully qualified path and file name >

You can change the names of these files or verify that a particular registry entry points to the correct files. This information is very useful in debugging missing bookmarks and address books or creating a common set of bookmarks and address books to distribute.

III-49 If Netscape Navigator’s caching feature doesn’t work properly, be sure these registry entries refer to the correct directory for caching and match the settings displayed on the navigator administration screens.

Hive: HKEY_CURRENT_USER
Key: Software\Netscape\Netscape Navigator\Cache
Value Name: Cache Dir
Data Type: REG_SZ
Value: < fully qualified path and file name >

This value is the directory where Navigator stores cached images and files.

III-50 Value Name: Disk Cache Size
Data Type: REG_SZ
Value: 0x00001388 (5000)

This value shows how much disk space Navigator can use to store cached information.

III-51 Value Name: Disk Cache SSL
Data Type: REG_SZ
Value: No

This value determines whether Navigator caches Secure Socket Layer (SSL) pages.

III-52 Value Name: Disk Cache Size
Data Type: REG_SZ
Value: 0x00000400 (1024)

This value determines how much memory Navigator uses to keep objects cached.

CITRIX WinFrame

III-53 If your Winframe server runs certain applications slowly, don’t fret. WinFrame is actually trying to do you a favor — it spots bad software and tries to reduce the resources it allocates to these bad applications. To modify this feature, change these registry entries.

Hive: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
Key: Software\CITRIX\Compatibility\Applications

Add a key under the Applications key with the name of your applications.

Key: < myapp >

Add the following values under the key you just created (whatever you called your myapp key).

Value Name: FirstCountMsgQPeeksSleepBadApp
Data Type: REG_DWORD
Value: 0xf

III-54 Value Name: Flags
Data Type: REG_DWORD
Value: 0xc

III-55 Value Name: MsgQBadAppSleepTimeInMillisec
Data Type: REG_DWORD
Value: 3

III-56 Value Name: NthCountMsgQPeeksSleepBadApp
Data Type: REG_DWORD
Value: 0x5

Restart the machine for these changes to take effect.
