Abstract

A system allows an administrator to edit, from a client, property files that reside on a server. The client issues a request to the server for property information for an application program. After receiving the property information, the client passes it to a configuration portion of the application program, where the property information is edited by the administrator. The client receives the edited property information and sends it to the server, where it is stored.
