The startdir property

fpdaemon sets the current working directory to whatever 'startdir' is set to (if it is set) just before the 'startcmd' is run. This has the same effect as if you had switched to the drive and directory specified in 'startdir' just before running 'startcmd' .This was added because some applications require that they be run from a particular directory. If startdir is not set then the current working directory remains whatever it was when giserver was started - typically the fp/giserver directory.

Typical setting: startdir=c:\Roadshow\fp|

What properties in giserver\users\*.cfg does the User Configuration window set?
