My users are on regular computers, not thin clients, so they have the look and appearance of the desktop they are used it with just PNAgent. I do folder redirection on their my documents to the same place Citrix is told to look. Is there anything else to gain? -----Original Message----- From: thin-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:thin-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Greg Reese Sent: Friday, September 23, 2005 5:45 PM To: thin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [THIN] Re: PNAgent vs. published desktops Do both. Give them a basic empty desktop and start menu and then use the agent to populate the icons. Works especially well for thin clients. You get all the benefits of published apps and the users get the desktop and the things that go with it. Like a printers folder, my computer, and the look and appearance they are used to. I usaully do this with a mandatory profile with some folder redirections. The flex profile kit is great too for handling outlook settings etc. It becomes a very easy environment to manage. Give it a try.
