The /default option maps the drives and printers on the client PC to mapped
drives and printers on the MetaFrame server. The A and B drives are always
mapped to A and B on the MetaFrame server. Hard drives are mapped to their
corresponding drive letters if those drive letters are available on the MetaFrame
server. If the corresponding drive letter is in use on the MetaFrame server, the
default action is to map the drive to the highest unused drive letter. For example, if
both machines have C and D drives, the client C and D drives are mapped to V
and U respectively. These default mappings can be modified by the /ascending
and /noremap options.

The /default_printers option resets host printer mappings to defaults.
/default_printers attempts a one-to-one mapping of all client printers; for
example, client LPT1 and LPT2 are mapped to server LPT1 and LPT2. If the
/ascending option is specified, the mapping is done in ascending order.

The /default_drives option resets host drive mappings to defaults.
/default_drives attempts a one-to-one mapping of all client drives; for example,
client A and B drives are mapped to user drives A and B. Client hard drives are
mapped unless there is a MetaFrame drive with the same letter, in which case the
client drive is mapped to the next available drive letter going backwards from V.
If the /ascending option is specified, the mapping is done in ascending order.

The /ascending option causes the mapping to occur in ascending drive letter
order. For example, if the first two available drive letters on the MetaFrame server
are I and J, the C and D drives in the preceding example are mapped to I and J
respectively.

The /noremap option causes the mapping to skip drive letters occupied on the
MetaFrame server. For example, if the MetaFrame server has a C drive but no D
drive, the client’s D drive is mapped, but not the C drive.

The /persistent option causes the current device mappings to be saved in the
user’s profile. Note that drive conflicts can occur if the user logs on from another
client PC with different disk drives or logs onto a MetaFrame server with a
different disk drive configuration.

The /force_prt_todef option sets the default printer for the Citrix ICA Client
session to the default printer on the client’s Windows desktop.
