It has always been relatively easy to install/distribute Citrix ICA clients to workstations in the past. This can be done via Citrix Web Interface, the Citrix Automatic Client Update Utility, or even Active Directory. One of the challenges though is how to modify/maintain a client’s settings from a central location once deployed. Fortunately, Citrix has created a Active Directory Group Policy Template called icaclient.adm. This Group Policy Template and be downloaded from the following URL: http://support.citrix.com/article/CTX112957&se...125116. This template allows you to control 23 Citrix-specific rules. Among the things available in this template are:

• Trusted Server Configuration
• Session Reliability
• ICA Client Proxy settings
• Kerberos Authentication
• Smart Card Authentication
• Remote client device access such as drive mappings, printer, microphone, clipboard, etc.
• User experience settings such as audio, display, graphics, etc.
