Configuring user access on Citrix servers

Before you begin

Applies to:
  • Forcepoint URL Filtering, v8.5.x

To allow Forcepoint URL Filtering to apply policies to individual users and groups defined in a directory service, you must configure user access for your published applications in Citrix. The procedure varies according to the Citrix version.

Following is an overview of the procedure for configuring user access in Citrix XenApp 5.0. See Citrix documentation for more information on this wizard or for information about XenApp 6.0 or 6.5.

Steps

  1. Log on to the Citrix server Access Management Console as an administrator.
  2. Select Applications in the left navigation pane, or select a particular application you have published.
  3. Under Other Tasks, select Permissions.
  4. Click Add in the Permissions for folder “Applications” dialog box.
  5. Click Add in the Add access to folder dialog box.
  6. Select the computer or domain for adding users, and select the Show users check box.
  7. Select a user, and click Add to move that user into the Configured Accounts list.
  8. Repeat step 7 to add other users to the Configured Accounts list.
  9. Click OK twice to save the newly added users.

Next steps

If you need to change the permissions for a user, use the Edit button in the Permissions for folder “Applications” dialog box.

Important:
  • Do not allow users to log on with local or administrative credentials.
  • Do not allow anonymous connections.
