Write column, icons display each mapped drive that is enabled for use and what type of access users have to the drive. Items that are no longer available do not display a folder icon.
Icons that include a question mark indicate that a drive mapping has “query” permissions. This is a security feature that means when any application tries to read from or write to the folder, a dialog box appears asking whether you want to allow or deny access. If you choose Deny, access will be denied for the duration of the connection. In order to remove the deny permission, close or disconnect the session and restart.
Drives A, B, and C are mapped automatically as follows:
Drive: | Mapped to: |
|
|
A | A Macintosh removable media drive (floppy disk, USB flash drive, or |
| any other item that is removable and can be written to). Where there is |
| more than one removable drive, users can change the one to which drive |
| A is mapped from within an ICA session: |
| From the Drives menu, choose Client A Diskette to display the options |
| and choose the required drive. |
|
|
B | The Macintosh internal CD or DVD drive, or any other item that is |
| removable and |
| is more than one such item, users can change the one to which drive B is |
| mapped from within an ICA session: |
| From the Drives menu, choose Client B CDROM to display the options |
| and choose the required item. |
C | Permanently mapped to the user’s Home folder on the Macintosh hard |
| disk. |
