This is not so much a OneWorld question, but it relates to implementing OneWorld with Citrix in an environment where other Citrix implemenations already exist.
We are currently implementing OW XE with a Citrix farm.
When we started with this implementation, we where posed with the problem that we would have to maintain user specific INI files on multiple Citrix Servers in the farm.
To solve the problem, we came up with a concept we call: Profile Servers. Every time a user logs on to a Citrix server, a TS home directory is mapped to this Profile Server. Oneworld will then grab the JDE.INI file from this location.
This all works well when yo work with locally stored user profiles on the Citrix Server. It becomes an issue when you work with Active Directory.
We are a company with locations and Citrix installations in virtually every country around the world. A lot of users work on a Citrix installation in the States and from the moment OneWorld is live, with our European Citrix Farm.
Now comes the intersting part: How can you assign multiple TS Home directories to one Active Directory user?
We have worked with MS and Citrix and they basically tell us that this is the way it is designed.
Has anyone found some backdoors to solve this?
