Bulk assign AD groups to Citrix applications using Powershell

PowerShell to add an Active Directory group to a Citrix delivered Application Run PowerShell from your Citrix Delivery Controller server...as admin If your applications reside in specific folder find the UID of that folder... PS C:\>Get-BrokerApplication | Select Name, AdminFolderUid Now use that UID in the following to disable inherited permissions PS C:\> Get-BrokerApplication -AdminFolderUid 1 | Set-BrokerApplication -UserFilterEnabled $true Now run this to assign a domain group PS C:\> Get-BrokerApplication -AdminFolderUid 1 | Add-BrokerUser -Name "DOMAIN\GroupName" I ripped this code from  https://discussions.citrix.com/topic/383089-restricting-one-app-to-a-domain-group/ Thanks.

Ubuntu Citrix VDA Install

Sort out the /etc/hosts to include one
