Re: Securing PC5250 for Citrix

[Dennis <iseries@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Why not consider, alternatively, allowing each user to have individual settings for emulation, as the design permits?  To prevent one from setting (especially) the keyboard to one's liking just seems... I don't know... Big brother-ish?

Surely you're not allowing a common sign-on to the Citrix server, right?  If you are, your time would be better spent, seems to me, in fixing that security hole.
