Hi, We would like to give our users (with old PC) a simple desktop acces to a metaframe. In our farm, we have already users that use Wyse to connect to their session. In that way, we tried to recycle the old PC into something wyse like with Thinstation. When we use Wyse, we connect to a published desktop witch is load balanced into our farm and it works fine. I've try toi reproduce the same thing with the bootable thinstation CD without success. I can't log onto a server witch have a load balanced published desktop (instead of application). A desktop connexion works only if I specify a direct connexion to a server (but I loose the load balancig functionnality). I could bypass this if I publish a new load balanced application witch launch the explorer.exe process. In that case it opens a desktop but it's less "elegant". So here is my 2 questions: 1/ Is it possible to connect to a load balanced application that publish desktop? 2/ Is it possible to define the backup browser into the configuration file. Here is my user preference file: # --- Network configuration # Give a different name to each PC NET_HOSTNAME=test # If you want to use a DHCP server, comment out these params: NET_USE_DHCP=on AUTOSTART=On SESSION_0_TITLE="Metaframe" SESSION_0_TYPE=ica #SESSION_0_ICA_SERVER=serverm.prod.test.com KEYBOARD_MAP=fr TIME_ZONE=FR SCREEN_RESOLUTION="1280x1024" SCREEN_COLOR_DEPTH="16" SCREEN_HORIZSYNC="30-64" SCREEN_VERTREFRESH="56-87" MOUSE_RESOLUTION=100 ICA_BROWSER_PROTOCOL=HTTPonTCP ICA_APPLICATION_SET="desktop" ICA_SERVER=serverm.prod.test.com ICA_ENCRYPTION=Basic ICA_COMPRESS=On |
