    Hi Thomas, Hi everyone.

    i’m stuggling configuration a Dell Wyse 3040 with ThinOs 8.5 to use two different connections at the same time, while one is a connection to a RDP Session (main use) and the other is a <b>Citrix StoreFront Farm. </b>(partial used by some users)

    My Goal should be, that the user can login thou the RDP-Broker with his AD Credentials (and later by smartcard) and if needed join a second session to a Citrix Session.

    The User should be able to switch between both sessions. For this i changed the virtual style to “Zero Launchpad”.

    What is working is:

    Configuration Citrix as Broker and create a manual RDP-Session. Then the user has to login with his citrix credentials on the TC.  Unfortunately the citrix session is hosted by another company we have a VPN to it and only some users has and need access to it.

    So i need to authenticate against the RD-Broker

    I also tryed not to use a Broker, but then i cannot create a working Shortcut to the ICA-Session. (it’s application based, and i could not find where to put the Server Host or IP.)

    i’m using WMS for configuration.

    maybe somebody can help me out (if needed i can pay for your help)

    Thank you

    Daniel

    You could add the Citrix AND the Microsoft broker at the same time.
    ThinOS should then try to authenticate the user to both environments. If at least one succeeds, the user is logged in.

    Hi CG,

    yeah thats possible and working – unfortunately if the user log in with RDP-Session first, the Citrix App is not visible (because user is not logged in to the broker and so he don’t get the published Apps (Citrix Desktop). Workaround would be, that the user log out and log in with citrix redentials first.

    (At least i could not manage to create a “manual” citrix session, independent to the logged in broker. )

    So user credentials are different for MS and CTX environments?
