Advanced Customization Options for Connection Manager

The CMAK wizard supports most of the customization features that administrators need to build a custom Connection Manager service profile. However, you can customize additional features by editing the service-profile files and changing the manner in which Connection Manager implements certain functions.

You can edit service-profile files to customize functions and features that are not controlled through the CMAK wizard. To do this advanced customization, you can edit two sets of service-profile files:

Service-profile files consist of the following file types:

Important Be careful when you modify these files. Troubleshooting the changes made to these files is difficult. Never modify the original file, and always make backup copies. A basic understanding of system-configuration files is assumed.

Editing Service-Profile Files

You can edit either the template files or the specific service-profile files, or both, depending on whether you want your customization options applied globally to all service profiles or only to a specific service profile.

Template Files

When you install the CMAK, the following template files are installed in the \Program Files\CMAK\Support folder:

These files contain the default settings that the CMAK wizard uses to build the service profiles. If you want to incorporate custom functions in all service profiles that you build, edit the template files before building the service profiles.

Generally, you should edit only the .cms template file.

Built Files

When you use the CMAK wizard to build a service profile, the wizard creates a self-extracting .exe file and several other files that contain the settings that you specify. The service-profile files are saved in the following folder:
\Program Files\CMAK\Profiles\ServiceProfileFileName

All service-profile files have the name ServiceProfileFileName, which you specify in the CMAK wizard. In addition to the .exe file, the wizard creates the following files for each service profile:

For all files except the .cmp files, the built files take precedence over the template files. After editing a service-profile file, you must run the CMAK wizard again to rebuild the service profile with your customized settings.

Formats and Conventions

Connection Manager creates service (.cms) files, which use the same format as Windows .ini files and information (.inf) files. In these files:

For more information about these formats and conventions, see the Microsoft Platform Software Development Kit.

Customizing Functions

You should customize the entries only in the .cms and .inf files, and only as specified in this chapter.

Information (.inf) File Entries

By editing an .inf file, you can specify commands that run when the user sets up or removes your service profile. For example, you can specify:

To add custom set-up and uninstall commands to your service profile, you must first create the service profile by running the CMAK wizard and incorporate any files needed to run your custom commands by specifying each of them as an additional file. After you have built the service profile, specify the custom commands in the appropriate sections of the .inf file.

The .inf file contains the following four sections that you can edit to incorporate setup and uninstall commands, each of which controls the commands that are run at a specific point in the process. Use only file names of eight characters or less (do not use spaces).

Each command should include the name of the program to be run and any command-line parameters. Each command specified in the .inf file is run only once during an installation or removal process.

Important Incorrectly specified entries can cause significant installation problems. You should not edit any of the entries in the .inf file except those previously specified. Thoroughly test all service profiles that contain custom .inf entries for version, file, or other conflicts. Be sure that the file location is specified correctly.

When upgrading to a new version of the Connection Manager Administration Kit, the new .inf file replaces the previous .inf file. After the upgrade, you must add your custom entries to the new .inf file if you want to continue using your custom setup and uninstall commands in the service profiles that you build.

Long file names are not supported.

Service Provider (.cms) File Entries

Editing a .cms file can change the implementation of many of the Connection Manager functions. For example, you can do the following:

The following table shows the valid entries for each section of the .cms and .cmp files, the function and use of each entry, and where each entry can be set - in the CMAK wizard, .cms file, and/or .cmp file.
