It may very well be that the registry entries have simply changed.
Microsoft tends to do this between versions.

Subject: [THIN] UserOverride's Not Supported in Windows 2003 Terminal
Servers?

 
I've seen a lot of discussion about the cursor blink rate not being
supported but I'm not sure ANY UserOverrides work in Win2k3.

In our Windows 2k environment we used many such overrides. One was to
force
the desktop color to black. 

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Terminal
Server\WinStations\ICA-tcp\UserOverride\Control Panel\Colors]
"Background"="0 0 0"

Which no longer works on the Win2k3 Servers. If the blink rate and
background overrides aren't working how can we be certain ANY of them
are
working.

There's no articles that I've found on Citrix's or Microsoft's
Knoweledgebase that refers to UserOverride's other than complaint's that
they don't work on the 2003 platform.

Can anybody confirm or deny how the UserOverrides work on Win2k3 Term
Servers?
