Passthough Authentication with .ica files

Posted on October 8th, 2008

In the senario where users launch a Citrix desktop session and then passthrough to another published application by means of an .ica file, the default configuration means that the user will be prompted for their logon credentials again.

There is a way to change this and passthrough their details.

The .ica file must include the following lines:

UseLocalUserAndPassword=On
AutoLogonAllowed=On

The appsrv.ini must include the following entry:

EnableSSOnThruICAFile=On

Ensure that a modified appserv.ini file gets copied to the users profile on logon.
