Hello everyone, I’m having the following problem that sometimes some IGEL thin clients on the network grab the name of a Windows client.
In my case this prevents certain Citrix policies from being processed because they are bound to client names, e.g. “ITC*”.
Unfortunately I can’t find an explanation why this happens?
Thanks
are you usng microsoft dhcp? if so, enable name protection
Ok i will try it thanks
