Hi Neil,

Here is the problem. I want to set Idle and Disconnection Timeouts for all
users (something like 30 minutes), but I have a small group that i need to
configure these settings with more time, because they leave one of the apps
running some processes and printing pages (about 2, 3 hours Idle).

I can't use the Ica Conn settings because It will set these settings to all
users, including that specified group.

I was thinking about something with vbscripts to write a default setting for
all users (the 30 minutes) and after that go manually in the users who run
that one application and set a higher timeout...

Note: I have 300 users, and only 5 really have to run this f... app.



Sorry for the bad english...thanks.
Cid
