Dear All,
We are having a Windows 2000 Domain Setup since the past 2 years. In our AD Structure, we setup a Home Directory for all our Domain Users in their respective profiles – which points to a File & Print Server. Now that we have gone for J D Edwards, we have standardized our Enterprise, Deployment & Citrix servers on Windows 2000 Advanced Server.
Just the other day, we noticed a peculiar problem in terms of our J D Edwards Application. We noticed that each individual’s End-users profile on the Citrix Server did not have a Windows {Systems Directory} under the folder – C:\Documents and Settings\%UserName%\Windows - which is where - by default, J D Edwards saves the Jde.ini & Jde.log file for each User profile on Citrix Server.
We scanned the whole server for the Jde.log & Jde.ini files. We found out the only 3 files were available – 2 files belonging to 2 Users who did not have a Home Directory specified in the Active Directory Setup. 1 file was located in the C:\Winnt directory. We were worried about all other users’ Jde Files.
Accordingly, we scanned the whole network & managed to find out where the JDE files for all other users were being saved. Almost all Users were having their respective JDE files saved in their respective HOME directories (based on the File & Print Server).
Firstly, I would like to know the implications of this setup? Does it affect the Application speed on Citrix (because every Users jde.ini / jde.log etc. files are saved on a different server. Does this lead to an increase in unnecessary traffic on my Network?
Secondly, I would like to know if there is a way around this – i.e. – Save the Jde Files on the same Citrix Server (C:\Documents and Settings\%UserName%\Windows\jde.*). I cannot get away with the Home directory setup as it would definitely affect too many things around my network.
Hoping to hear from someone soon!
