Jim,
Thanks a lot for the reply. Yes I'll modify the script and try it. It will
definitely prevent 2nd user from launching the app if it is already running.
The last question I have is this:
What if say 2nd user tries to login to ther server where the application is
already running. The script will log him out because the trigger file will
be detected. Is there a way in this case to somehow redirect user to the
different server? With load balancing if the app is already running on the
least loaded server 2nd user trying to launch this app will be continuosly
logged off until other server becomes least loaded one.
Thanks,

See http://thethin.net/runonce.cfm at the bottom is a script from citrix
about
users logging in more than once. You could modify this script easily enough.
What you would need to do is publish the app in a cmd file that copies a
file
out to the server and checks whether it exists or not and deletes the file
at
logout of the app.
