ABSTRACT:
An automatic computer configuration system is disclosed wherein a portable terminal such as a portable telephone set which has been spread widely and is usually carried by a user can be used to automatically configure a computer suitably for a particular user. The automatic computer configuration system comprises a portable terminal and a computer connected to the portable terminal. The portable terminal stores unique computer configuration information to be used for configuration of a computer specified for a particular user. Upon login by a user, the computer communicates with the portable terminal to receive the computer configuration information stored in the portable terminal and automatically configures the computer itself based on the received computer configuration information. Upon logout, the computer transmits the latest computer configuration to the portable terminal and restores the configuration using computer configuration information used before the computer configuration information is rewritten with the unique computer configuration information received from the portable terminal, or restores a default configuration using default computer configuration information.
