Yup.  That works well, also done it with the App-V client and VUEM.

Use the Citrix receiver enterprise on the published desktop and publish
apps you want to have the control of.  If the app is on the same server it
will simply act as a shortcut but if on a different server it would create
a session accordingly.  Also, you will want to use the hidden apps option
to hide the published desktop icon from the users when they are inside the
desktop.  This will most likely require you to create your own services
site.

Hi

I'm looking to publish a XenApp 6.5 desktop.  Ive only ever used Published
Applications in the past.  The Desktop launches without any issues.  My
question is in relation to managing Applications.  What's the best way to
manage Applications in a Published Desktop?.  Users can see all the
installed Apps on the server but how would I give granular control.  Eg 1
user needs App X, I don’t want all users to see App X.  Do I use the
receiver which will allow icons to be created on the desktop?.   Also what
if the published Desktop is launched on Server  1 but the user needs an App
on Server 2? Is there a way for the App to appear on the Published Desktop
on Server 1 but the App launches from Server 2?

Ideally Id like Apps to be generated on the desktop based on AD user group
membership.  What's the best practice in accomplishing this?

Thanks
Ang
