Check the file appsrv.ini under your profile and check if
EnableSSOnThruICAFile=3DOn is there. Not sure if it will help..but give =
it
a try.

I agree, and it was my first suggestion.  But they're trying to do this
without spending money...

An easier, yet a little more expensive solution... Give out tokens (RSA,
Safeword) to those users who need external access.

Subject: [THIN] Limiting application access through NFuse via IIS
security?


I have a client that is using NFuse internally to deliver apps to
several thousand users.  They would like about 200 of these people to
also have access to their applications from home, but not all of them.

We are able to do this somewhat successfully by installing a separate
nfuse/csg server and having IIS require authentication at the metaframe
directory in IIS.  We also set ntfs permissions to match on the file
system level.

Everything works great except this requires a double logon(not
acceptable to the client).  Once for windows authentication and once for
NFuse.

If I go into the nfuse admin page and enable pass-through authentication
then we get a step closer...  We don't have to logon twice and we do see
the correct applications for the user but we are unable to actually
launch any apps.  We get an error on the page that the variable
NFUSE_USER not set.  Basically, the user credentials are being used to
authenticate but are not being carried through to the applications
themselves.

Has anyone ever implemented something like this or have another
suggestion as to how we can accomplish this without using a
secondary/third party authentication means?

Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.
