Note: If you cannot connect to a server, you may need to change the Server

or proxy server details (see “Configuring the Client to Work with a Proxy Server”
on page 57).
Opening a Specific Application Using a Connection File
You can specify an application to run after you connect to a server. If you specify
an application, you do not see the server desktop when you connect and the
connection closes when you exit from the application.
If you specify an application, you cannot run any other application in the ICA
session nor access the server desktop.
To specify application properties for a connection
file
1. In the ICA Client Editor, open the connection file you want to edit.
2. From the Application tab, specify the path and file name of the application
to be executed after connecting to the server.
For example, to launch Microsoft Word automatically after connecting to
the server, type c:\winword\winword.exe.
3. If necessary, type the working directory to be used for the application in the
Working Directory box.
