Creating A Pre-configured ICA Client.

This packaged client was created using the following procedure:-

Download the latest ica32pkg.msi from the citrix web site.

Create an administrative installation point using the msiexec /a
ica32pkg.msi command, select the options for: -

- Uncompressed â All source files are copied to the directory.
- Only select the Full Program Neighbourhood client.
- Use Machine Name as Client Name.
- Use local name and password to log on to Metaframe Sessions.
- Upgrade older Metaframe Client Versions.
- Only display the splash screen, progress and finish screens.

Install the base client on a new machine from the administrative
installation point.
Configure as required.

Close Program Neighbourhood.

Copy the following files from the users profile application data\icaclient
folder:-

- Appsrv.ini
- Pn.ini
- Wfclient.ini

Place these files under the folder structure that exists under the
ica32pkg.msi file in the following locations: -

- Program Files\Citrix\Application\ICA Client\Appsrv.ini
- Program Files\Citrix\Application\ICA Client\WFClient.ini
- Program Files\Citrix\Application\ICA Classic\PN.ini

You can now install a pre-configured client from the above installation
point.

Should you want to re-package all of the individual files back up into a
.msi file run msiexec /a <admin share>\ica32pkg.msi and select the options
as originally chosen with the exception of choosing the option to create a
single windows installer file.

I think I tried that once with same results (appsrv.ini instead of pn.ini)
so I don't think it works quite that way.

I didn't select that option because I wanted to see if the modified
pn.ini would "stick around" in that directory, since there wasn't a
pn.ini there to start with.

I'll try it as a monolithic .msi and see if that makes a difference.
