No - applications are published straight to the start menu. We don't use
NFuse or WI.
 
I've tried adding a computername to a group, but that does not seem to work.
 
My key problem is filetype associations. I need this to run on a per-device
basis, not a per-user basis. I can control it per-user using groups, but not
per device.

Well, if your thin-clients have local web browsers. . . . .

You need two web interfaces and the Hide Apps WI hack (detailed here
http://www.citrix4ge.de/wim/wimha.htm
<http://www.citrix4ge.de/wim/wimha.htm> )

Configure all the thin clients to point to WI B.  Everyone else browse to WI
A.

WI A has the hack hiding all the apps you want to hide.

 

I saw somewhere how to replicate the NFuse structure on the same server, so
that you can effectively have two WI's hosted by one server, but I can't
remember where.

Hi folks,

 

I need to publish an application (say Word) to some PCs, but not others. So
devices that have word installed locally (laptops) run word locally, and
devices that are always attached to the network (Thin Clients) run word
through a published application. How do I publish an application to one
group of computers and not another?

 

TIA.
