standard config files located on a server, what should I look for?

Hello,

I am fairly new to the Bentley World and want to set it up properly for my users who haven't used it at all.  What I would like to do is setup the standards and DNG templates and other items that the end users will need on the server and have Bentley look there for these items.

Dimension Styles, Layers, Wall Configs, tags and callouts.

 What I am lacking is what to look for and where in the configuration would I find the paths to point the others to?  Is there a book or a white paper somewhere that I can refer to for this?

Thank you for the help

  • Great information here!  Thanks, Paul.  In order to try to keep down the server activity and open files, I used this:

     _USTN_SYSTEMROOT = $(_USTN_INSTALLED_WORKSPACEROOT)system/

    To point back to the system directory on the local drive, the content of which we NEVER modify, so might as well get them from C: as from a network drive.  You might be using some .rsc and seed files from this location.
