Have you considered redirecting the Desktop to the user's home directory? -----Original Message----- From: thin-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:thin-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Angela Smith Sent: Friday, July 14, 2006 6:43 AM To: thin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [THIN] Published Desktop lockdown Hi Ive just built a new farm based on Windows 2003 and Citrix Metaframe Presentation Server 4. Ive published a desktop and am looking for the best way to lockdown the "published desktop". Im using Group Policy and have set several settings to lock the published desktop. I have an issue where I don?t want the users to see/access the servers local drives. Ive accomplished this via the following settings: User Configuration\Administrative Templates\windows components\windows explorer\Hide these specified drives in My Computer User Configuration\Administrative Templates\\windows components\windows explorer\Prevent access to drives from My Computer My issue is that the users can create folders on the desktop but cannot delete them (due to the above Group Policy settings). How can I easily prevent the users from being able to make any changes to the desktop? As a side note, how do people control what icons are created on the desktop?? I was thinking of using a script that copies icons to the desktop based on AD group membership. Is there a better way to do this?
