I saw that someone already responded with the published Citrix
solution, however that method disables workspace control.
We therefore took a different route: We modified the Session.cs file
and left workspace control enabled. Now we get User Name (not
domain-username) for the Client ID AND we have workspace control
still.
We are still testing this method to assure no other problems, but so
far it looks good.
Session.cs info:
Here is the original Code
Change these lines to decide how the client name is chosen:
// Get the client name to use (create a new one, if necessary)
String clientName = (String)deviceState.get(COOKIE_LOGIN_CLIENT_NAME);
if (!MPSClientNames.isValidUniqueName(clientName)) {
if( config.getWorkspaceControlConfiguration().getEnabled() ) {
clientName = MPSClientNames.generateUnique();
deviceState.put(COOKIE_LOGIN_CLIENT_NAME, clientName); //
Remember for future sessions
} else {
// Use the old client name format when Workspace Control
is disabled for
// compatibility (MPS/U and MF1.8 need the old format to do roaming
// reconnection).
clientName = MPSClientNames.fromAccessToken( accessToken );
}
}
For example, replacing the lines above with this should always use the
client name derived from the username:
// Always determine the client name from the user's identity
String clientName = MPSClientNames.fromAccessToken( accessToken );
