Figure 25. Application distribution, components<br />

The following steps are required to enable a user to use the application:<br />

1. The client image needs to be updated with the new package. These<br />

changes then need to be distributed to the client workstations that will be<br />

using this software.<br />

2. Assign the package to the user using the NETWIN USER userid /ADD<br />

/APP:appid.<br />

3. The user's profile is updated to include the link(s) to the icon(s) <strong>for</strong> the<br />

application.<br />

4. The Win32 Application Updates file is updated to include the user registry<br />

in<strong>for</strong>mation associated with the added application (from the appiduser.inf<br />

or appiduser.reg file). If the Win32 Application Updates file does not exist,<br />

it is created in the user's home directory and then updated.<br />

5. A Logon Assignment is added to give the user access to the Win32 shared<br />

directory <strong>for</strong> the given application if the executable files are on a shared<br />

directory at the server. The assignments are based on the APPDRIVE and<br />

APPDIR values. No changes will be made if the Logon Assignment<br />

previously existed. The USERS group is used to manage access to the<br />

application files. The user is already part of this group, and the USERS<br />

group is added to the access list <strong>for</strong> the alias.<br />

6. The updated user profile is written back to the home directory <strong>for</strong> the user.<br />

An entry is added to the User Datastore record <strong>for</strong> this user. The entry<br />

indicates that the application has been assigned to the desktop indicated<br />

by the TYPE.<br />

The <strong>WorkSpace</strong> <strong>On</strong>-<strong>Demand</strong> Client downloads an additional file (<strong>Windows</strong><br />

Application Updates) from the user's home directory that is to be merged<br />

into the user's unique <strong>Windows</strong> registry.<br />
