Double-hop single sign-on authentication

User credentials for accessing a StoreFront store can be injected to the AuthManager module of Citrix Workspace app for Linux and Citrix Receiver for Linux 13.10. After injection, you can use the client to access virtual desktops and applications from within a Linux virtual desktop session, without entering user credentials for a second time.

Note:

This feature is supported on Citrix Workspace app for Linux and Citrix Receiver for Linux 13.10.

To enable the feature:

1. On the Linux VDA, install Citrix Workspace app for Linux or Citrix Receiver for Linux 13.10.

   Download the app from the Citrix download page for Citrix Workspace app or for Citrix Receiver.

   The default installation path is /opt/Citrix/ICAClient/. If you install the app to a different path, set the ICAROOT environment variable to point to the actual installation path.

2. In the Citrix StoreFront management console, add the HTTP Basic authentication method for the target store.

   

3. Add the following key to the AuthManager configuration file ($ICAROOT/config/AuthManConfig.xml) for allowing the HTTP Basic authentication:

    <Protocols>
         <HTTPBasic>
             <Enabled>True</Enabled>
        </HTTPBasic>
    </Protocols>
