11. 1.    How to Publish an Application

1.      Click Start Click Programs Click Citrix Click Management Console for MetaFrame XP

2.      Enter an administrator account and click OK

3.      Right click on the Applications container and click Publish Application.

4.      The Application Publishing Wizard appears (as shown below)

5.      Enter the required Display Name, entering an Application Description is optional, then click Next.

6.      You are now promoted for the Published applications executable. Enter the path or browse to the application executable and click Next.

Note: If you want to publish a Desktop select the Publish Desktop radio button.

7.      You can specify a folder to contain the applications icon. Enter the desired settings and click Next.

 

8.      You are now prompted to specify the application appearance. In the Session Window Size drop down box select Percent of client desktop. In the Colors drop down box select True Color (24 bit) and click Next to continue.

.


9.      Uncheck thet Enable Audio checkbox and click Next.

Note: With the release of Feature Release 2 for MetaFrame XP Citrix added a new checkbox, the Start this application without waiting for printers to be created. This will speed up login times considerably. I recommend you leave this box checked unless the application requires printers prior to logging on.

Note: Basic encryption will be sufficient if you will be utilizing Secure Gateway for Windows. Otherwise I recommend 128-Bit (RC5)

 

10. The next screen you are presented with is only available to servers with a Feature Release 1 or above license. You can set the number of instances the particular application is available for. You can also select the CPU priority level for a particular published application.


11. You are now prompted to specify the servers that will host this application. Select the appropriate servers and click Next.

 

12. The next screen is asking you to specify the users and or groups that have access to the published application. Click to drill down till you find the user(s) / group(s) you want to assign and click Next..

 


13. If you will be implementing Client to Server Content Redirection then you will want to spectify the file type associations that you would like configured with this published application. Click Finish to publish the application.

Note: If the specified File Type Associations are not visiable then you will need to import then from the local registry as docuemented in Install Image Applications section of this document.

 

You have now successfully published an application that will be accessible through an ICA client interface such as MetaFrame Secure Access Manager and or the Web Interface.
