Usual rules apply – I won’t be held responsible through any misuse of these, they’re provided as is with no support, etc given or implied.

Right, first you’ll want to enable Linux binary support (lang/linux_base). Adding linux_load=”YES” to your /boot/loader.conf will ensure that you have support next time you boot. As for the installation of the client:

1. Save the client (above) into an empty directory and cd to it.
2. gzip -d linuxx86.tar.gz      (or whatever you’ve called it)
3. tar -xvf linuxx86.tar
4. cp /usr/bin/true /bin/true
5. cp /usr/bin/fale /bin/false
6. ./setupwfc

After running through the installation (pretty self explanitory), if everthing’s ok, you should now have the Citrix client located in /usr/lib/ICAClient/. CD to this location and run ./wfcmgr

EDIT 17th June 2009: I’ve just noticed that Thomas Abthorpe will be committing net/citrix_xenapp (v11) to the FreeBSD ports collection. Requires a bit of tweaking, but you can read up on it at his page here:

Thanks Thomas!

Why would you want to do this? Well, apart from the obvious shifty method of hiding your stuff, it’s VERY useful in terminal server environments where you want to hide the potentially sensitive system drives, local floppy disk or CD-ROM drives. Not so silly now, eh? Remember that you can still access these drives by typing the drive letter directly (for instance in an Open/Save/Run dialog box). I’ll dig out another tweak later to show how to crack down on this too!

Open Registry Editor and navigate to:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer

Create a DWORD value and name it NoDrives. As for it’s value, you’ll need to work it out depending on what drives you wish to hide. Simply add them together from the following list. The total is what you’ll use for the the NoDrives value.

A=1
B=2
C=4
D=8
E=16
F=32
G=64
H=128
I=256
J=512
K=1024
L=2048
M=4096
N=8192
O=16384
P=32768
Q=65536
R=131072
S=262144
T=524288
U=1048576
V=2097152
W=4194304
X=8388608
Y=16777216
Z=33554432

For examply, if you want to hide drives A, C and D the value would be 13 (1 + 4 + 8).

Please make sure that you backup your registry BEFORE carrying out this modification, etc, etc, etc!
