That's what we have already stated for the user to do. However, my question
is why the Novell server was impacted at all since nothing this user was
doing (aside from having mapped drives) touched the Novell box?

I would just assume the user not use Ghost Explorer from a TS/Citrix session. If they need to access files from a ghosted image of their workstation, they should request a copy of the .gho image (perhaps on a CD Rom) and allow them to extract the data that way. Or request that an administrator extract the files for them.
Ghost Explorer is an administrative tool; it would be like giving users access the CMC.

Environment: MetaFrame XPa on W2K.
Situation: User logs in and login script maps Novell home and other directories. User then maps to image server and uses Ghost Explorer to explore and image. User then extracts data from that image file to his locally attached c: drive. Citrix server creates a cached copy of these files in profile directory on the Citrix server. Citrix Server p: (local) drive fills to capacity. The Novell server that the user has as his home server begins to behave very, very slowly. Explorer.exe on the Citrix server crashes and when the temp files are removed from the citrix server profile and the connection broken, the Novell server returns to normal utilization and functionality.
Now, does anyone have any idea why what I just explained happened?
Thanks in advance,
