# Signup - Deep Freeze Configuration for Mac

I know about the ConfigDir reg key for Windows clients, but how do you confirm and/or modify where the bin files are stored on a Mac?

---

This can be configured by modifying the "com.pharos.signup.plist" located in the /Library/Preferences folder. The key is named "Client Cache File Directory".

You can make the change by running this command in Terminal.app (you will be prompted for your password):

`sudo defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.pharos.signup "Client Cache File Directory" "PATH"`

Be sure to replace PATH with the correct path to your persistent storage area (e.g. the DeepFreeze thawspace). You will need to restart the machine for this change to take effect.
