Nearly there:- 
 
4)  Create a security group within your new OU (or wherever) and set the GPO
to apply to this group.  Add the Citrix machine accounts to the group.

If I understand this correctly I need to do the following.

 

1) Move my Citrix server into a new OU called "Citrix Farm" (name could be
anything of course).

2) Create a GPO for the "Citrix Farm" OU.

3) Setup my custom Citrix only settings and set Loopback on the GPO for
"Citrix Farm" OU.

 

Does this sound right?

Note that each Citrix servers machine account needs to be added to group
which applies the loopback policy.

Perfect!! Now why can't Microsoft explain it in that clear of English? Thank
very much for your explanation.

Use the loopback policy.

 

Using this on the Termialserver computers OU will cause all users logging on
to them, to resolve the User Configuration from this OU.

This way, setting a User setting here, will only apply for a user login into
a Terminal Server.

Emne: [THIN] Active Directory GPO and Citrix

I am getting ready to deploy a new Citrix farm and want to have a locked
down Citrix environment using AD GPOs. However I also have a large number of
fat Win2k and XP clients. How do I setup the GPOs so that they only apply
when a user logs into Citrix. Do I use the "Loopback" GPO object and if so
can someone give me a little info on how the loopback works?

 

Thanks for any advice / suggestions.
