As i mentioned earlier Tahir and Olav took the stage for the last session of the day. They did a great presentation with the mentioning of several good tools for troubleshooting application issues and other problems that may arise in the implementation of XenApp.
Some of the tools mentioned were:
- Microsoft Application compatibility toolkit.
- Regmon / Filemon ( I personally like process monitor better, more areas but requires more selection in the data.)
On another note the session led into a discussion on the new group policy options in windows server 2008, whether or not the new features will replace the logon-script so many uses today.
Directions to help optimize the logon time in your XenApp environment. Talking about aspects like cleaning out the Default user and disabling Active Setup, building a good way to deploy the start menu to the users, based on scripted copy, redirection of the start menu and other scenarios.
Tahir and Olav did a great session. All in all i would like to thank the Norwegian User Group for having me at their event, it was a well-run event, great content, great presenters and an open atmosphere. Some of the late night conversations might have bits that were lost in translation, but i am thinking it would be the same with an all danish-event
I sure got a lot of great input as to what i need to do with the upcoming Danish Citrix User group, Thanx for a great event
