Just curious is anyone has any other ideas on the issue described below. I
have already verified the Gina config in the registry (per Novell's site).
Thank you in advance.

Subject: Citrix / Novell Issues?
I have 5 Metaframe XPe (FR3, SP4) servers running on win2k3 with SP1. all of
them have the Novell client installed. We are using WI (4.0) to front-end the
published apps. One of the 5 servers just has it's desktop published while all
the others have multiple pub apps incl desktop.
The problem is that whenever anyone accesses the published desktop app on this
one server it is not running the Novell login, it appears like it is just
authenticating with Microsoft. I can then right-click on the N in sys tray and
login and then it will run the Novell logon script and so on. Sometimes I don't
even get a desktop, just a blank blue screen, although I can see in the console
that there is an active session running!! I believe this to be a result of us
redirecting the desktop folder to one of those mapped drives that are not
mapping because the Novell login process didn't complete.
This happens through WI, PN (using pass through auth) or PNAgent. It's even
happened once or twice with just a PN connection to the server (not pub app. If
I get prompted to login to Novell then things are good. To complicate things
even more we are using roaming profiles (through group policy) and redirecting
both the desktop and my docs folders to another area of the network. To make
things worse, it doesn't happen all the time, but it does seem to affect most
users at least some time.
I've been searching for days on all the Citrix sites and can't find anything
that comes close to helping me. At first we tried deleting or renaming both
the Citrix local profile and the network profiles but that only works for a
short time and then it happens again.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks!
Jim
