[THIN] Re: PUBLISHED DESKTOP LOGON ERROR:

Hi Joe,
 
Simple. Sounds like access to the server(s) is limited to published 
applications only. So if you're a non-admin and you try to do a direct 
connection, it'll fail with that error.
 
The nice thing about using published applications including a published desktop 
is you've got complete control over who can use the published apps. If you 
allow a direct connection you've got essentially no security.
 
A couple of comments though. If the ICA files are for internal use, you'd be 
far better off using PNAgent instead of ICA files. If they're for external (eg 
internet/WAN) access, I'd suggest at the very least that you use Citrix Secure 
gateway and Web Interface. 
 
regards,

Subject: [THIN] PUBLISHED DESKTOP LOGON ERROR:



Hello everyone,

 

I need some help.   I recently rebuilt a 2003 server running MF XPE FR1 SP3.  
This particular server is running IIS and holding two files in the 
inetput/wwwroot folder called explorer.ica and explorer2.ica.   These are ICA 
files that I created for our internal people to be able to log in from home.   
The two files represent published desktops and are on our corporate website.  

 

Explorer2.ica works fine however explorer.ica once clicked on brings up the 
desktop; however once the user logs on and gets authenticated the user gets the 
message which is attached to this email.   All permissions have been granted as 
far as I know. In other words this file has the same permissions as the other 
file.  When users log in to a client session from any remote PC using Program 
Neighborhood and the same IP address they are able to log on just fine to both 
servers via. the alternate address or our outbound IP's.  Any suggestions would 
be greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks for your help.
