Hey guys,
I have installed a test server for Citrix MF XP 1.0 and Office XP. I already created the transform file and installed Office XP on the server.
The problem I am having is that it doesn't customize it for each user. I installed it under the name Administrator and whenever a user logs in to the server it has Administrators name and initials for user info.
We have a MF 1.8 w/office 2000 and everytime a new user logs in it asks for their username and initials.

Any suggestions about where I can configure within the custom installation wizard?
 
Sounds like a profile problem. Have you overwritten the Default User Profile with the Administrators?
I found that with Office XP I had to install, then hack NTUser.DAT for Default user to get all the applications to work properly, rather than copy my profile over.
 
You can use the ORK (Office Resource to adjust per user settings - including things like Outlook profiles. The ORK can be used to modify the transforms file, so that when you install it the correct modifications are made.

Other items can be modified by logging in as an ordinary user with (temporary!) Administrator group membership, making all the necessary mods, logging off and simply copying the profile to the Default Users' profile.

Hope this is helpful CitrixEngineer@yahoo.co.uk
 
Sweet....that's what I was thinking of doing.
I'll give it a shot
