Im at a client's site and theyve been = having=20 some problems since turning off "Disable Windows Client Printer Mapping" = and "Disable Client LPT Port Mapping" (i.e., the functionality for both = is=20 enabled now). They have functionality enabled on three servers of eight = and=20 on those three, the servers will "hiccup" or pause most programs for a=20 duration of approximately three - thirteen seconds. ICA, RDP, and = console=20 sessions will lock freeze in programs such as Outlook, Word, Excel, CMC, = and=20 perfmon, but will not freeze programs such as Task Manager, Notepad, or = the=20 clock. I monitored each server for five minutes, the servers that have = this=20 functionality enabled hiccuped on average 6 times during the five = minutes for=20 approximately a 50 seconds total on average. So, the three servers with = client print mapping enabled paused in most applications for 50 seconds = out of=20 5 minutes. The other five servers hiccuped for a combined total only = twice=20 for a total of 12 seconds out of 25 minutes. The three servers are all running MetaFrame XP FR1/SP1. Two of the = three bad=20 servers are running Windows 2000 SP2 with one running SP3. Applications = across all eight servers are pretty much the same. One of the "good" = servers=20 is running a 16 bit app that is silo'd from the others, but other than = that,=20 the applications are almost identical. The reason those three have = their=20 client print mapping are turned on are because these are serving out = print=20 functionality to line printers on thin clients. All other printers in = the=20 organization are on jet directs and are being imported into the CMC from = their=20 file/print server. Citrix doesnt believe that this is their problem since the problem = occurs to=20 RDP and console sessions as well as ICA sessions. Anyone have any = ideas?
