Thanks everyone. I will look at this possibility.

There isn't.
What I've done is write and publish a wrapper script that checks for the
existence of some control file. If the file doesn't exist (or does exist,
the paradigm is up to you) then the script launches the application as
normal. If the file does exist, then script exits without launching the app.
I also have another published script that builds or deletes the control
file, so disabling or enabling an app is simple and immediate.
Of course, disabling an app does not do anything to anyone already running
the app, nor is this approach possible if you are publishing desktops
without a lot more work on your part (you must make sure they can't bypass
the control script and launch the app themselves).

Not that I know of. It shouldn't be too difficult to create a script that
does just that.

On the same thought process, is there a command line that will
enable/disable logon to a published application?

Joe,
Does putting that command before shut down override the IMA value which
re-disables logon?

I thought about that but the customer is using softgrid and there is a
significant delay between when the shutdown/restart command is sent and when
softgrid actually restarts the server (The softgrid client intercepts
logoff/shutdown/restart commands). Some of the softgrid client values can
be tweaked, but only little.

Not that I know of.
I just put a "change logon /enable" at the end of my reboot script,
immediately before the tsshutdn command. That's all I could think of.

Does anyone know how to disable the stupid 'Disable logons' that survives a
reboot feature that Citrix implemented? Adding a chglogon /enable to the
startup script doesn't always work as IMA service may start after the
startup script has executed.
