RE: breakout of citrix

["Rob Wallace" <Robert.Wallace () thompsonhealth org>]

To all,

I've had this same problem at my old job and I'm not sure how to fix it.   What Kenzo is getting at though is if you, 
for example, do a file -> open within word, excel, etc. right click within the file-open window and left click on 
explore you'll get a desktop of the server.  Essentially the same thing is happening for him.

If anyone knows how to fix it, please post.

Thank you,
Rob Wallace

Be verbose, please ...

I added a link within Word2000 using STRG+K pointing to C:\

What I get on screen is ...

\\Client\C$\

When I click on this it connects me properly to my client.

I remember that during or after installing Citrix Metaframe XP1 with 
Service Release 2 the program offered me to run a (huh, long ago) 
program which changes the Server-Drive C:\ and D:\ to L:\ and M:\ in 
order to avoid some stuff.

Most of the clients which connect have their client drives at C:\ and/or 
D:\.

Citrix says, if you do not have this program run, the local harddrives 
of a client could not be connected to a Citrix-Session, if the client is 
a Windows-Machine.


hth

bis dahin - kind regards
