I have a Citrix shortcut on my desktop that allows me to connect. It works fine when I login as me but when someone else logs onto the same machine its gone.

How would I go about creating a standard shortcut that appears on the desktop of the machine all the time that allows a standard Citrix login for everyone that logs onto the machine with a different username and password

Roaming profiles cannot be used because they take too long to load.

I take it I need a default place for the Citrix ICA client connection info then run it from a Script at startup? Or can it be done easier, without creating ink's, pn's, ini files, scripts and bat's?
 
I assume you're using an ICA file, or at least a shortcut to one, to launch the Citrix session... in which case all you need to do is place that file/shortcut on the "All Users" desktop, and it will appear for anyone who logs in.

Quick and dirty solution, but it would do the trick.
 
looks like i cant use the allusers method. Ive (almost) done it the hard way...

setting the appserv, pn and other info.

The only thing its knackered on now is the

IF EXIST %userprofile%/desktop/CITRIX.ink GOTO End

It runs fine the first time and creates it with the correct settings but when its already there it doesnt go to the end as it should do. Instead it just sits there at command prompt not doing anything.

Shouldn't:

IF EXIST %userprofile%/desktop/CITRIX.ink GOTO End

be:

IF EXIST %userprofile%/desktop/CITRIX.lnk GOTO End
 
Thanks i tried lnk and it did not work (same as before)

Strange - This works IF EXIST C:\1.txt GOTO End

But this doesnt

IF EXIST C:\Documents and Settings\testuser\Desktop\1.txt GOTO End

Its having a problem going to documents and settings for some stupid reason. When you put the path in the run box it finds it ok
