Remote and Streaming Application Delivery Methods

Using a web browser, a XenApp Web site allows users to access:

* Remote and streamed applications
* Content

Streamed applications can be pre-deployed in one of two ways:

* Using RADEDEPLOY.EXE.
* Configured in the published application.

When configuring an application delivery method policy the administrator can configure the policy to:

* Force server access
¨ Forces streamed applications to always launch from the server.

* Force streamed delivery
¨ Forces the applications to always stream to the desktops of the client devices.

Publish an Application

When published, users can access applications installed on the XenApp servers.

* The applications appear to run locally on the client devices.

* Published applications provide the administrators control over what resources users can access on a server.
¨ Unlike published server desktops.

Published server desktops allow users unlimited access to the resources on a serverwhich can result in users changing configurations and settings that can cause server vulnerabilities.
If you install and publish an application after installing XenApp, you must update the file type association in the server's Windows registry.

* To update file type associations:

* In the Access Management Console, select the server where the application is published.

* Select Action > All Tasks > Update file types from registry.
