[THIN] Re: Setting ICA connection timeout

Thanks Carl

The servers are Windows 2000. I had a look at that web site but didn't see anything there that would help. You mentioned it can be set in the user account. In AD Users and Computers, there is a session tab were you can set timeouts but I was under the impression this is for MS Remote Desktop sessions. I need to control the ICA session timeout.

I was under the impression this setting is machine based only (ie server based)..

Any ideas?? I have 5 users who need their ICA timeout changed. I dont really want to change the server default setting for 5 users hence my hoping theirs a user based way of controlling this setting

Anyone?????

Thanks
Rose

If your servers are Windows 2003, there is a group policy setting to control timeouts. User Config > Admin Templates >
Windows Components > Terminal Services > Sessions.

If your servers are Windows 2000, You can set it per machine using the True Control Template from
www.loginconsultants.nl or you can set it per user in the user account. You might have to use the Windows 2003 version
of ADSI with VBScript to change it per user or download tscmd from www.systemtools.com.

Subject: [THIN] Setting ICA connection timeout for AD group only

Hi

Our company has a 1 hour iidle timeout limit set on all MF XP 1.0 servers in
the farm (set in Citrix Connection app). I need to set one departments
timeout to 4 hours. Is it possible to control this via AD groups so the
default is 1 hour except one dept or do I need to change the server global
default to 4??. It appears that this is a system wide setting.

I was going to modify the ICA connection permissions by adding the AD group
there and not giving it access apart from logon.. Would that work??? Whats
the easiest way I can do this without causing too much admin overhead

Thanks
Rose
