Hi Fiona,
You can configure the front page, but AFAIK it has to be done from a shell
on the box that you are running Blackboard on. Check your BB5 Installation
manual, on the Unix version you can find instructions on page 60.
The way that I'm doing our BB login page is logging in as bbuser (into a
shell on the unix box), and editing the file login.ci which is in
/usr/local/blackboard/docs/login/ I usually make a copy of the file before
I make any changes... just in case. It's a basic HTML file and there's some
instructions on what you can change within the file.
If you're using the Windows version then it's probably the same concept but
a different way of approaching it, check the installation manual.
Hope this helps
Matthew
