Thats what Peter Ghostine from Emergent Online wrote
http://thethin.net/wtslaunch.zip for.  It is to launch and close these
processes.

You may have a rogue process that keeps the session open, we have seen this
with some applications that launch other utilities and they appear to Citrix
to still be an active session, even when the user is disconnected. You
should get the process list and see exactly what is running for these
users.....

Paul:
For some reason, that I haven't been able to figure out, my fat client users
will loose their connection to Citrix.  Citrix on the other hand will think
that they are still active.  The Connection Center is gone from the users
PC. Yet the CMC shows an active Citrix session.  I wind up having to reset
the session before they can log back in.  I have them set up to only allow
one active occurrence of the published application.

Since the user doesn't have an active Citrix session on his workstation he
is stuck until he can call the help desk.  The problem is that this group of
users works 7 days a week and the help desk is 5 days a week.  I need a way
for them to end an active session on their own.  Thus the need for this
script.  Also since they are not "connected to the Citrix server" I need
this script to run stand-alone on their workstation.  As Chris Lynch talked
about in an earlier e-mail I would like to create a ASP page that can be
tied to NFuse.

The only way that I can recreate this is to shutdown the PC (pull the power
cord) without doing a Citrix log out first.

I hope this makes sense.
