[THIN] Re: XA 4.5 ICA permissions windows 2003

Sorry Doug. It was an extract from a working script, so was missing some bits and pieces. I have now tested the subroutine and got it working nicely for you. All you need to do is set the strDomain and strGroup variables, and away it goes. Just comment out the permissions that you don’t want to add.

 

Cheers,

Jeremy.

 

 

Option Explicit

 

Dim blnDomainAccount, strDomain, wshnetwork, strGroup

 

blnDomainAccount = True

 

If blnDomainAccount Then

  strDomain = "MYDOMAIN"

Else

  Set wshnetwork = WScript.CreateObject("wscript.network")

  strDomain = wshnetwork.ComputerName

  Set wshnetwork = Nothing

End If

 

strGroup = "MyGroup"

 

Call ListenerPerms("ICA-TCP",strDomain,strGroup)

 

wscript.quit(0)

 

Sub ListenerPerms(strListener,strDomain,strGroup)

  Dim strComputer, objWMIService, colitems, i, errResult, objitem, itm, intQuery

  Dim intLogoff, intShadow, intLogon, intMsg, intConnect, intDisconnect, intSet

  Dim intVirtual, intReset

 

  Const GUEST_ACCESS = 0

 

  strDomain = ucase(strDomain)

  strComputer = "."

 

  Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:" & "{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\" & strComputer & "\root\cimv2")

  set colitems = objwmiservice.execquery("select * from win32_tspermissionssetting where terminalname='" & strListener & "'")

 

' Add the account and give it Guest access by default.

  for each i in colitems

    errResult = i.addaccount(strDomain & "\" & strGroup,GUEST_ACCESS)

  next

 

' Add the required permissions to the account.

  set objitem = objwmiservice.execquery("select * from win32_tsaccount where AccountName ='" & strDomain & "\\" & strGroup & "'")

  for each itm in objitem

       intQuery = itm.modifypermissions(0,True)

'       intSet = itm.modifypermissions(1,True)

       intLogoff = itm.modifypermissions(2,True)

'       intVirtual = itm.modifypermissions(3,True)

       intShadow = itm.modifypermissions(4,True)

       intLogon = itm.modifypermissions(5,True)

'       intReset = itm.modifypermissions(6,True)

       intMsg = itm.modifypermissions(7,True)

       intConnect = itm.modifypermissions(8,True)

       intDisconnect = itm.modifypermissions(9,True)

  next

 

  Set objWMIService = Nothing

  set colitems = Nothing

  set objitem = Nothing

 

End Sub

Thanks for the script.  I am having a bit of a problem with it and was hoping you could help.

 

When I run it it adds the group I identified to the listener but only give it guest rights with logon.  Not of the other settings get set.  (Query, Logoff....)

Yep, me too.

 

With TSConSec the Reset does not show in the GUI. However, if it's not set, then the Logoff permission will not be selected. This can be quite frustrating to work out, so be careful.

 

But you can also use the win32_tspermissionssetting WMI Class…

 

Here is an extract from one of my scripts…

 

-------start of script-------

Call ListenerPerms("ICA-TCP","Shadowers")

 

wscript.quit(0)

 

Sub ListenerPerms(strListener,strGroup)

  Dim wshnetwork, strComputer, objWMIService, colitems, i, errResult, objitem, itm, intQuery, intLogoff, intShadow, intLogon, intMsg, intConnect, intDisconnect

' Note that we must use the actual computer name and not a "."

     intMsg = itm.modifypermissions(7,True)

     intConnect = itm.modifypermissions(8,True)

     intDisconnect = itm.modifypermissions(9,True)

  next

 

  Set wshnetwork = Nothing

  Set objWMIService = Nothing

  set colitems = Nothing

  set objitem = Nothing

 

end sub

 

-------end of script-------

 

This runs in my build scripts, but you can run it afterwards using PSEXEC. It will also probably work as a Startup script too.

 

I hope that helps.

I’ve always scripted this as part of the unattended install using tsconsec.exe – I think because the values are stored in a binary key rather than being permission on a registry setting

 

e.g. run tsconsec command on the server as part of the build:

 

TSConSec.exe /t:ica /a:Helpdesk /p:RS /q

 

Would set the helpdesk group to be able to reset and shadow on ica sessions.

 

If you wanted to do a farm download psexec and run a for command

 

Create a list of your servers – put that in servers.txt

 

for /f "skip=3" %i in (servers.txt) do psexec \\% tsconsec.exe /t:ICA  /a:YourGroup /p:Flags /Q

[THIN] Re: pse450R03W2k3028 seems to have broken RM

We had exactly the same issue, though after a different HotFix applied (think it may have actually be R02) and changed the default server that was collecting the RM information.
 
Having said that running the Console on another computer ended in the results finally displaying for the date and time period we were looking for.. So in hindsight I wondered if in fact it was just the console playing up on a particular server, rather than the Database collection issue itself...
 
Either way it was one or the other that fixed the issue for us!
Hope this may help...

[THIN] Re: Citrix SMTP App Timeout Error

Hi Alan,

 

From the error message it actually sounds like it may be using the incorrect/incompatible VB runtime libraries. Sometimes you can get away with just copying the correct version dll to the location where your application runs from, and the application will pick it up from there.

 

Cheers,

Jeremy.

Subject: [THIN] Citrix SMTP App Timeout Error

 

Hi All,

 

Can anyone help me with an ongoing issue I have with two new Virtual Servers in my farm, everything seems to work fine with a 3rd party 16-bit application called Finance One apart from when users try to send whats called a remittance report which hooks into SMTP to send clients e-mails.

 

When the reports run they sometimes work with no errors but about 7 out of 10 times they will fail with a VB288 SMTP error:

 

Critical Error: VB288 Internal Error. Source: com TBSMTPSendMail.DoSend, Description [288], Line: 0

 

When the same reports are run from the server direct they work every time, and networks have confirmed there are no issues on the LAN, I have also tested SMTP from the server to send e-mails which works fine as well.

 

I have tried a reg hack to increase SMTP timeout on the servers and this hasn’t helped either and the CPU on the citrix servers are not spiking over 60% when sending the mails?

 

The vendor do not currently support the version of the app we are using anymore but did advise that the DDE ‘destination is busy’???  

 

We are currently running on ESX3.5 with VM’s Win2003 PS4.5 (The app is dedicated on the servers in question)

 

Any ideas would be a great help as I’ve hit a brick wall

 

Thanks in advance

 

Al

Is your AV software messing with the emails? It is common for AV to
block or rate limit SMTP connections.

Can anyone help me with an ongoing issue I have with two new Virtual Servers in my farm, everything seems to work fine with a 3rd party 16-bit application called Finance One apart from when users try to send whats called a remittance report which hooks into SMTP to send clients e-mails.

 

When the reports run they sometimes work with no errors but about 7 out of 10 times they will fail with a VB288 SMTP error:

 

Critical Error: VB288 Internal Error. Source: com TBSMTPSendMail.DoSend, Description [288], Line: 0

 

When the same reports are run from the server direct they work every time, and networks have confirmed there are no issues on the LAN, I have also tested SMTP from the server to send e-mails which works fine as well.

 

I have tried a reg hack to increase SMTP timeout on the servers and this hasn’t helped either and the CPU on the citrix servers are not spiking over 60% when sending the mails?

 

The vendor do not currently support the version of the app we are using anymore but did advise that the DDE ‘destination is busy’???  

 

We are currently running on ESX3.5 with VM’s Win2003 PS4.5 (The app is dedicated on the servers in question)

 

Any ideas would be a great help as I’ve hit a brick wall

 

Thanks in advance

 

Al

[THIN] Re: Citrix SMTP App Timeout Error

Hi Al,

Are you running McAfee VSE on the two servers by any chance? This may block applications that try to send e-mails via SMTP.
