In fairness, I think he has clarified that.

I'm not going to give myself a headache, parsing that ;-)

But if what you mean is that PC mapped drive to ServerA, establishes
Citrix session to TSServer1, automapping client drives (including
network mapped ones) is just the same as TSServer1 directly mapping a
network drive to ServerA - or another server, as we're rather assuming
it should be the same - that's not the same thing. Think of the flow of
data.

Indeed.

Which I suspect he probably does, which is rather tricky, if he's
determined not to do any scripting.

Still, good luck with that...
