CTX1321 Citrix Metaframe Password Manager: Administration — A 1-Day Course

Course Synopsis

Dealing with multiple passwords is no longer a fact of doing business. Citrix MetaFrame Password Manager provides password security and single sign-on access to Windows, Web, proprietary and host-based applications running in the MetaFrame Access Suite environment.
