This is way late, just happened to be searching for something else and saw your post, but at any rate your plan looks pretty good to me. You're certainly on the right track using GPO's to control where My Docs is stored and accessed by users is an excellent solution.

Yes. You can embed the username and password in the file. An Example of what is actually in an ICA file would be something like this: [WFClient] Version=2 TcpBrowserAddress=123.456.789.1 HttpBrowserAddress=servername PersistentCachePath=C:\Documents and Settings\%username%\Application...

The other thing that might annoy users, but help with the security issue, is to set the ICA-TCP settings to disconnect an idle session after 5 minutes or whatever it is you have the screen saver set to. Then allow the disconnect setting to be an hour or something like that. That way when the...

It's hard to say exactly what the cause of that error might be, but from what you described it sounds like that server is having trouble communicating with the DataStore. I'd start troubleshooting by verifying that server can communicate successfully with the DataStore and the Zone Data...

If this is a new server a strong argument could be made to build your Citrix servers with Windows 2003 Terminal Services. With 2003 TS Licensing you can license each user that connects rather than each workstation. It's still not as convenient as Citrix's concurrent licensing, but if you have...

There are basically two simple methods you could use to give all user's on a workstation access to a published application without having to login and configure each user. The easiest way out of the box is to create an ICA file for the published application. To do this in MetaFrame XP right...

With over 300 servers that's not really an option. Actually we found the problem. Someone had added a printer mapping in the CMC mapping the HP Color LaserJet 4500 to an HP LaserJet printer. So it was doing a reverse mapping from the UPD printer to another driver, which somehow caused the UPD...

Environment: Windows 2000 TS Citrix MetaFrame XPe FR3 The farm is set to: Use universal driver only if native driver is unavailable. Drivers on the servers are limited to the following: HP LaserJet Series II HP Color LaserJet 4500 HP Color LaserJet PS Any printer that uses the PCL5c driver...

Thanks for the feedback. I'm not worried about giving users notification to logoff. That's an easy given. I'm more concerned about not interrupting there work and preventing the server from rebooting if anyone is logged on.

Oh well never mind. Problem fixed. Someone put the server in the Computers OU in AD and something in the GPO was causing this. I should have figured that one out a little quicker! -- lacitrixuser

ianglynn, From what you described you may also want to check the Citrix Connection Configuration Advanced settings and make sure that User Profile Overrides doesn't have Disable Wallpaper checked if you are using MetaFrame XP. -- lacitrixuser

Hi, Quick question that I wondered if anyone had any idea as to what is happening. I have a Windows 2003 server running IIS 6.0. This server host a Citrix Web Interface page. The site works fine normally, but every morning when users browse to the page they are prompted for a Windows username...

Here is my config: Window 2003 Standard Server MetaFrame XPe IIS 6.0 with Web Interface installed This is a new server in a develop / test environment. Web Interface is installed on the same server as MetaFrame XP. It seems to work fine, but the past two mornings when users go to the Web...

Well... In case anyone was interested. I answered my own question. I used the syntax below in a Kix script and it worked! The only problem with this is that on a fat client with local printers, the autocreation and selection of the default printer overrides the script. However on the PocketPC's...

That would simplify things. However when you map a driver to a printer you must assume that the device logging into Citrix has a printer installed that can be autocreated. In this case the label printers are networked and installed on the Citrix/TS server. I would like to set the default...
