Configure 编辑

When using Citrix Workspace app for Linux, the following configuration steps allow users to access their hosted applications and desktops.

Settings

Configuration files

To change advanced or less common settings, you can modify Citrix Workspace app’s configuration files. These configuration files are read each time wfica starts. You can update various files depending on the effect you want the changes to have.

If session sharing is enabled, an existing session might be used instead of a newly reconfigured one. This setting might cause the session to ignore changes you made in a configuration file.

Default settings

If you want to change the default for all Citrix Workspace app users, modify the module.ini configuration file in the $ICAROOT/config directory.

Note:

If an entry in All\_Regions.ini is set to a specific value, the value for that entry in module.ini isn’t used. The values in All\_Regions.ini take precedence over the value in module.ini.

Template file

If the $HOME/.ICAClient/wfclient.ini file does not exist, wfica creates it by copying $ICAROOT/config/wfclient.template. When you change this template file, the changes are applied to all the Citrix Workspace app users.

User settings

To apply configuration changes for a user, modify the wfclient.ini file in the user’s $HOME/.ICAClient directory. The settings in this file apply to future connections for that user.

Validate configuration file entries

To limit the values for entries in wfclient.ini, specify the allowed options or ranges of options in All\_Regions.ini.

If you specify only one value, that value is used. The $HOME/.ICAClient/All\_Regions.ini file can match or reduce the possible values set in the $ICAROOT/config/All\_Regions.inifile, it can’t take away restrictions.

Note:

The value set in wfclient.ini takes precedence over the value in module.ini.

Parameters

The parameters listed in each file are grouped into sections. Each section begins with a name in brackets that indicates parameters that belong together; for example, \[ClientDrive\] for parameters related to client drive mapping (CDM).

Defaults are automatically supplied for any missing parameters except where indicated. If a parameter is present but not assigned a value then the default value is automatically applied. For example, consider the InitialProgram parameter is followed by an equal sign (=) and no value is provided. In this example, the default value (not to run a program after logging in) is applied.

Precedence

The All\_Regions.ini file specifies parameters that the other files can set. It can restrict the values of parameters or set them exactly.

For any given connection, the files are checked in the following order:

1. All\_Regions.ini - The values in this file override those values in:
   • The connections .ICA file
   • wfclient.ini
2. module.ini - The values in this file are used if they have not been set in All\_Regions.ini, the connections .ICA file, or wfclient.ini. However, these values aren’t restricted with the entries in All\_Regions.ini.

If no value is found in any of these files, the default in the Citrix Workspace app code is used.

Note:

There are exceptions to this order of precedence. For example, the code reads some values specifically from wfclient.ini for security reasons.

Global App Config Service [Public Technical Preview]

The new Global App Configuration Service for Citrix Workspace allows a Citrix administrator to deliver Workspace service URLs through a centrally managed service.

As a prerequisite, you must enable this feature in the AuthManConfig.xml file. Navigate to $ICAROOT/config/AuthManConfig.xml and add the following entries:

     <key>AppConfigEnabled</key>
     <value> true </value>
