Hi group
Anyone successfully deployed this on PS4? We had to perform some ugly stunts to
make this work with CRM 3.0 and I wonder if there is any improvement with 4.0.
There a rather meaningless announcement here
http://www.citrix.com/English/ps2/citrixready/product.asp?contentID=1297093,
and a blog entry here

that promises more documentation to come. But unfortunately we have to roll
this out very soon.
One of challenges we had with CRM 3.0 was that we need to Outlook add-in to be
dynamically (at logon time that is) enabled/disabled depending on the users
group membership, as not everybody is licensed for the product. Therefore we
had to script install/uninstall control this with a group policy. The nasty
part is that the add-in stores portions of the user settings in "Local
Settings" in the user's profiles, which is naturally not roamed between servers
& sessions. So we had to add some logout-scripting to salvage this to roaming
profile.
So I would be curious to know if this has been fixed in CRM 4.0. Anyone out
there who would know?
Thanks!
Dan
