Citrix Desktop 2

[877k]

Please could someone advise

When Users Log into the citrix farm they are presented with a desktop. This desktop has amonst other things an outlook icon on it, I would also like to place an Excel and word Icon on the Default desktop as well as a couple of others. I did not set this up and am alittle unsure of where I need to go to make these changes, could anyone help ?

Oh BTW We are runing Citrix XP server farm with W2000 applications servers with access via nfuse if that helps

Real easy way would be to:-

Copy /Y "?:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu\Programs\Microsoft Excel.lnk" "%USERPROFILE%\Desktop"

Put this in usrlogon.cmd and everytime a user logs in then this link would be there, replace the "?" with your Citrix drive letter.

There are loads of other ways like GPO's but this is easy!

Cheers,
Carl.

you might also add:

"IF NOT EXIST "?:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu\Programs\Microsoft Excel.lnk" "%USERPROFILE%\Desktop"

before each copy statement.

If you want to avoid this adding a file to the all users\desktop takes about 2 minutes with Group Policy, although I still like the simplicity of scripting.
