Yes. If the client has a Win32 ICA client installed, wether it's the full PN or
Web client an ICA file will by default have file associations in Explorer to
pass it through to the ica client.
Soooo, if you double click on an ICA file it will use pn/local client to launch
the ica session using the parameters defined in the ICA file.
I use this method for some sites I setup when defining builds for fat client
workstations Im turning into dumb terminals. Just chuck the ica file into the
startup folder and it connects straight to the published app on startup.

All,
My remote access servers do not take advantage of publishing. Everyone
gets a full desktop, but that is about to change. I have one app where we
are going to limit the capabilities of the users to such an extent that
publishing the app is the only way to meet our needs. I have come across a
hack that can lead to a compromise of metaframe servers (to see details,
http://sh0dan.org/files/hackingcitrix.txt you can also go to
http://www.securiteam.com/ and search on citrix). It looks as if these
hacks all require the use if .ica files. If I am not using Nfuse, do .ica
files still come into play?
