configuration file to an associated newly established
programmable workstation” which is recited in claim 1.
We agree with the examiner that Sanchez-Frank does indeed
disclose this feature. At column 6, line 33, Sanchez-Frank
discloses that the network nodes are replicated for purposes of
creating other nodes with similar properties and network
connections.
In view of the foregoing, we will sustain the examiner’s
rejection as it is directed to claim 1. We will likewise sustain
the rejection of claims 3, 6-9, 11 and 13 as these claims stand
or fall with claim 1 (brief at page 5).
In regard to claims 2 and 10, appellants argue that Sanchez-
Frank does not disclose:
. . . automatically copying said selectively
altered master user configuration file to an
associated newly established programmable
workstation in response to an initiation of
communication between said associated newly
established programmable workstation and said
host computer. [as recited in claim 2]
Appellants specifically argue that Sanchez-Frank does not
disclose automatic copying of selectively altered master user
configuration files in response to an initiation of communication
between the associated newly established programmable workstation
and the host computer.
