[THIN] Re: SV: Active Directory GPO and Citrix

If I understand this correctly I need to do the following.

 

1) Move my Citrix server into a new OU called "Citrix Farm" (name could
be anything of course).

2) Create a GPO for the "Citrix Farm" OU.

3) Setup my custom Citrix only settings and set Loopback on the GPO for
"Citrix Farm" OU.

 

Does this sound right?

Note that each Citrix servers machine account needs to be added to group
which applies the loopback policy.

        Perfect!! Now why can't Microsoft explain it in that clear of
English? Thank very much for your explanation.

        Use the loopback policy.

         

        Using this on the Termialserver computers OU will cause all
users logging on to them, to resolve the User Configuration from this
OU.

        This way, setting a User setting here, will only apply for a
user login into a Terminal Server.

        Emne: [THIN] Active Directory GPO and Citrix

        I am getting ready to deploy a new Citrix farm and want to have
a locked down Citrix environment using AD GPOs. However I also have a
large number of fat Win2k and XP clients. How do I setup the GPOs so
that they only apply when a user logs into Citrix. Do I use the
"Loopback" GPO object and if so can someone give me a little info on how
the loopback works?

         

        Thanks for any advice / suggestions.
