Hi Evan,
 
Its dead easy to do with kix. We hacked up a little utility from the citrix 
server sdk that can be used to drop sesssion stuff like the client IP address 
and published app name into an INI file. 
 
Then it's just a matter of getting the client IP subnet address, using split() 
to pull apart the ip address and then using a select/case structure to call a 
location specific external script that can be used for printer assignments etc. 
With a bit of extra logic you can handle suppernets and subnetted C class 
networks as well.
 
Send me an email if it looks too hard and I'll send you a sample script.
 
regards,
 
Rick

Subject: [THIN] OT: Logon scripting



Does anyone happen to do any logon scripting that checks the IP
Range/Subnet the computer is on, or, a portion of a computer name (such
as a prefix).  I'm trying to come up with the best way to consolidate
70+ different logon scripts for 70+ different offices, into one and
subnets and computer prefixes are always unique per location.

An alternative, and last case option is to check OU membership, but I
don't split up OUs by office and would like to avoid doing that.

In theory all 3 options sound like they would work just fine, but I'm
feeling them out for anyone who has done it in the real world.

I'd likely do it with KIX.
