Hi, Try the local admin on the initial Metaframe system you set up. If that doesn't work you've got a problem. After a couple of times, you avoid locking yourself out be adding domain admins to the full access admins group a.s.a.p. Nothing like having to chfarm and re-enter all your licenses etc to make you appreciate that. The admin SIDs and rights are stored in the datastore, but there are no utilities outside Citrix for doing the necessasry editting. DSView.exe will give you a look at what's there though. This can sometimes be useful.

However, my local administrator account that I specified during setup as the Citrix Administrator for the CMC, doesn't have access anymore to the CMC. I didn't add any other groups to the list. I have recently imaged this machine, and the NetBIOS name is still the same. I found the Citrix article stating that if you have the RestrictAnonymous key set to anything except 0, you would have problems logging into the CMC. There was a hotfix for that issue, but that was back in SP1. We are running SP3. Anyone know how to resolve this WITHOUT re-installing?
