Prevent Citrix /Terminal Server Users browsing host file system from Published Apps
Hi
I have a Windows 2003 network where remote users have access to published apps. They will be able to view pdf files using Acrobat reader exec'd off a vb6 app. Also they can use the MS Word and Excel Viewer apps to view their respective document types. What I want to do is prevent them viewing the local file system and potentially changing/deleting/viewing files using the File Open dialog boxes that come with these apps. Can I block this action with Group Policy or some other technique? FOr example tie the File Open dialog box to an empty folder they cannot browse beyond and is readonly for them? All they should be able to do is view the document in the app and then close the app.
Thanks
Andy
