There are three ways for users to log in to a session on a XenApp server:
•Use NetMan anonymous users. In application sessions started using NetMan Client, users are logged on using NetMan anonymous user accounts.
•Use Citrix anonymous users. In application sessions started using NetMan Client, users are logged on using Citrix anonymous user accounts.
•Use local login data. The login credentials used to log on to the workstation are used for logging on to the application session.
The method to be used for login on a XenApp server is configured in the NetMan Settings, in the NetMan Client or Web Interface section, on the XenApp Hosts page:
If you are running a stand-alone server, there should be no problem using the anonymous user function in Citrix: (Anon001 to AnonXXX). If you use multiple XenApp servers, however, we recommend using NetMan anonymous users.
The settings under Use local login data have to be adapted on the workstation to the Citrix client settings. The first prerequisite for use of this mechanism is the installation of Program Neighborhood on the workstation. The next step is to select Tools/ICA Settings and switch on pass-through authentication. This must be configured on the workstation by a user with administrative rights, because PNSSON is entered in the HKLM_System/CurrentControlSet/Control/NetworkProvider registry section as a new network provider. The ssonsvr.exe program from Citrix is activated at the next user login on this machine and detects the login credentials.
To enable this invisible login function when using an ICA file as well, enter EnableSSOnThruICAFile=On in the [WFClient] section of the %AppData%\ICAClient\APPSRV.INI file. Program Neighborhood does not offer an interface for configuring this setting.
