Methods, computer systems, and computer readable media provide for network
location overrides for a client to utilize when accessing network hosted
services. A client computer obtains network locations for hosted services
from a network location, such as a URL of a configuration server. Any
overrides providing different network locations for one or more of the
hosted services are obtained from a store of the client computer, such as
from a system registry provided by the operating system. The network
location of an override is then used in place of a network location
specified at the configuration server to access the hosted service. The
overrides may apply for all applications, certain applications, certain
services of an application, or for certain users of the client computer.
