Im pasting this from the Citrix Advanced concepts guide... "During login, the auto-created client printers are checked against a banned list of printers that are restricted. This allows you to enforce banning print drivers which may cause issues on the MetaFrame XP servers. You can...

I agree with rayzze, the advanced techinal design guide from Brain Madden is the Bible for Metaframe. I would also get the metaframe documentation from Citrix's website (SP3 and the advanced concepts guide), it will help give you a high level understanding on things.

anyone know how to disable the message you receive the first time you run Internet Explorer from a terminal session? "Internet Explorer is not currently your default browser. Would you like to make it you default browser?" Is there a registry key that will disable this message so...

Thanks for the prompt response JohnTcolo, but i failed to mention that we are using Metaframe 1.8 and the users are on wyse terminals so there isn't a "local" time. The only time that comes into play is the time on the server. I know that there is a setting that you can configure on a...
