ICA connection is not set to disable wallpaper.  I agree whole heartedly
about wallpaper, my point has always been if you are actually doing
something then your wallpaper is never visible, if you are not doing
something then who cares what is on your computer as your screensaver
should kick in or turn off your monitor.

What do you want wallpaper for ???  Most people get rid of it....

 

How about you look at properties on the ICA connection and verify the
disable wallpaper option is not checked.

Since the last one went so well, I figured I'd share another problem
with you.  This one falls squarely under the public relations part of
the job.  :-)

We are using Flex Profiles and hence an underlying mandatory profile.
The issue is that each user logs in and sets a pretty background and
then later they logout.  The next time they login the background is
gone.  Not really gone, because if you look in the display properties
and look at the desktop tab, the background is selected, the preview is
even there, but no background on the computer.  Same thing with
screensaver settings.

 

The strange thing is all of the settings are saving properly in the ops
file, they get loaded correctly. If a user checks the registry the
entries for wallpaper and screensaver are there, but they do not get
applied.  It is like the ops file cannot overwrite the default
user/mandatory profile settings.  Any ideas?
