Use this policy to instruct the client to use the same logon credentials (pass-through authentication) for the Citrix XenApp server as the client computer. When this policy is enabled, the client can be prevented from using the current user's logon credentials to authenticate to the remote server by clearing the "Enable pass-through authentication" check box. The client imposes certain restrictions specifying when pass-through authentication can occur (for details, see Citrix eDocs at http://support.citrix.com/proddocs/). If these restrictions are too strict for your environment, select the "Allow pass-through authentication for all ICA connections" check box to bypass the pass-through authentication restrictions. When run in a Novell Directory Server environment, selecting the "Use Novell Directory Server credentials" check box requests that the client uses the user’s NDS credentials. Troubleshooting: To enable pass-through authentication, the client must have been installed by an administrator, and the "Allow Local Credential Pass-through" option must have been selected at that time. Each user can choose to disable pass-through authentication through the client registry settings, the Program Neighbourhood window, or by editing their copy of AppSrv.ini. To enable pass-through authentication, the user's copy of AppSrv.ini must contain the setting "EnableSSonThruICAFile=true".
