Citrix Support

Toad supports installation on Citrix servers.

Installing Toad on a Citrix server
Toad must be installed on the Citrix server by the Citrix administrator. Users then connect to this instance through their Citrix logon.

Citrix support is enabled with the appropriate installation option - Citrix/Terminal Server on the Select Installation Type dialog. Toad requires write access to the server registry during installation and read access during run-time to achieve Citrix support.

Full procedures for installing Toad on a Citrix server are located in the Getting Started Guide.

Connecting to Toad through Citrix
To connect through a client

Log into the Citrix Program Neighborhood and execute Toad.

Note: The first time you execute Toad you will be asked to enter a license key. Your Citrix administrator will provide you with the license key.

User Configuration Files in Citrix
Toad is installed on the Citrix server, and individual user settings are maintained on each client machine.

Individual user settings and properties files are maintained in the user's settings file:

C:\Documents and Settings\user_name\Application Data\Quest Software\Toad

Script Manager and Citrix
Toad installs packaged SQL Scripts with the Script Manager. When Toad is run in a Citrix environment, the default paths to these script manager files will be wrong.

To use these, you will need to manually change these paths once.

To change the Script Manager paths for use with Citrix

Open FileScript Manager and select the DBA category from the dropdown box.

Click the move button and enter your new path: C:\Documents and Settings\User Name\Application Data\Quest Software\TOAD\ScriptMgr\DBA.

Repeat for the Schema Objects category and move to C:\Documents and Settings\User Name\Application Data\Quest Software\TOAD\ScriptMgr\Schema Objects.
