Citrix Auto install ICA Client

[quell]

How can you make it so that the ica client software will automatically install after you click on a application.

I dont know quite what you are saying? Are you talking about a complete installation or are you refering to an update of the ICA client?

When you open up the web page for NFuse log in, the next page are the programs that are published. Well if you do not have the ICA client software installed on that pc it will not allow you to exicute those published programs. Is there a way to make the ICA client install automatically? Like maybe through a script of something.

You can do 2 things.

1.) Use an HTML "On Open" statement to launch a script that will check version. If the client is not installed, then it will redirect them to a page where they can download it. This is pretty much like the default NFuse page.

2.) Use the embedded Java client, then users won't need to install the client. There session will be embedded in the browser window. On the root page, you can add a link that can install the client at the user's option.

If you use NFuse Admin you can make the client installation automatic with a checkbox. This is on the ICA Client Deployment link. If you check the 'auto' box the client will download if not already installed.

Default link for the admin pages is as follows
