Citrix Policies are different than Microsoft Policies.

 

To answer the question, Policy 1 will take precedence over Policy 2 because
it's ranked higher.  The users will have both policies applied with Policy 1
winning any conflicting/overlapping settings.  For more info, see page 295
of the PS 4 Admin Guide:

 

Prioritizing Policies

You can prioritize policies by ranking the priority number. By default, new
policies

are given the lowest priority. In cases of conflicting policy settings, a
policy with a

higher priority will override a policy with a lower priority. A policy with
the priority

number of 1 has the highest ranking priority. If you have five policies
ranked 1

through 5, the policy ranked with priority number 5 has the lowest priority.

In the following procedure, the interwoven example assumes that you created
a

policy for your "Accounting" user group. One of the rules enabled in this
policy

prevents the user group from saving data to their local drives. However, two
users

who are members of the Accounting group travel to remote offices to perform

audits and need to save data to their local drives.

The steps below describe creating a new policy for Accounting group members

Carol and Martin that will allow them access to their local drives while
allowing the

other policy rules to work the same way for them as for all other members of
the

Accounting group.

He will get the server policy for policy 2 when he logs in to that server.

 

If loopback processing is enabled for Policy 2, he will get the user portion
of policy 2. Otherwise, he will retain the policy settings for policy 1.

I have a question on policies and and the level they are in

 

Policy 1 - based on one single user

Policy 2 - based on one server

 

If the user from policy 1 logs in will he also be affected by policy 2 if he
connects to the server selected in policy 2?

 

Thanks
