Script for disconnected sessions, in the Scripting / Automation forum on BrianMadden.com

Hi,

Is it possible to write a script or something else to set the disconnected session time on the ICA listener?
further than that It will be also nice to set the Idle timeout and the action on a broken or timed-out connection.

I have a farm with a lot of servers and want to change these settings.

Yes, you can script this. It is set in the registry. Look under HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Terminal Server\WinStations\ICA-tcp

HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Terminal Server\WinStations\ICA-tcp

OK thank you. I tried to find these myself but overlooked this key.

This is what I was looking for. I can create the script now.

My 2cts. The script I wrote for configuring the Timeout values.
btw I am not a programmer.

Hey Rudy,
I was wondering there are all these nice features to disconnect ICA-TCP. How about a script on how to enable ICA-TCP on PS 4.0. Thanks!!
