Hi John,

In my system all accounts are preconfigured. We do not allow "new users" to 
create accounts and then use them.
By using this method I just configured settings in the OO manually as we 
have only 50 preconfigured users.

I did try to look for some sort of global configuration file that is used 
for all the users but with no luck. As we needed this solution as soon as 
possible I had to do it this way.
