Hi All, I have a question about publishing windows explorer to end users. I know this subject has been beaten to death, but I was wondering what folks who are out in the field are doing regarding this topic. We have slowly been deploying Citrix to our end users in our branches. The method we went with was web interface with published apps and locked down local desktops so all our users could get to was WI. I have to say I know most folks hate change but I never thought the biggest issue would be not having Windows Explorer. Call me naïve but I know what documents I open on a daily basis and which apps I need to use to open them. The lack of an explorer type interface has been the biggest complaint from my end users so far. I bring up this subject as I am fixing an issue where a user was able to circumvent my lockdown by doing a "file---open" in word and clicking on "tools---save as a favorite" and then using internet explorer favorites to access his drives. I am just curious about whether it is worth the fight or if most shops just publish explorer.
