I was creating an unattended installation of the App-V 4.6 x64 for RDS using RES Automation Manager, I used an installation script from somebody else as source for this installation and the installation went without any problems. I accessed the server via a published desktop managed by RES Workspace Manager to test an application that was delivered via App-V but I couldn’t launch the application and it came up with the following errors in the eventviewer:

Microsoft: Maximum number of groupmemberships for users (MaxTokenSize)
Today on of my colleagues was telling me about a Windows 7 deployment that was configured trough GPP but he noticed that not all the GPP settings where set somehow. He found a quick fix by removing the user from all the groups he was nested in, log the user in and add the user to all the groups again. When I heard this problem I knew I had seen this before in an environment with users in +200 nested groups in Windows 2008 R2. So I told him it could be the MaxTokenSize that has to be set to a proper value, Microsoft has an KB article to do so.

I was talking to Grant Tiller about a customer that had +500 printers that had to be created in RES Workspace Manager and he told me there was a solution to create printers in bulk so it wouldn’t be a manual job. Here’s a description of the utility and how to use it:
RES Automation Manager: Add fonts on Windows Server 2008 R2
Today while working on an unattended installation for a Citrix XenApp 6 on Windows Server 2008 R2 installation the customer asked me to add some fonts to the default installation. After some searching I found a VBS script that could do this, I had to change the script a bit because it gave some errors:

RES Automation Manager: Time sync issues
One of my customers had some time sync issues, we’ve build a new domain based on Windows 2008 R2 and all the DC’s in the new domain where configured with the core switch(es) as NTP server and the time on these switches where right. So we went on searching and apparently somebody turned on the following feature:
RES Workspace Manager and Change Password dialog
One of our customers noticed that the balloon that pops up when a password is about to expire isn’t displayed properly while using RES Workspace Manager. I send them an old powershell script that checks Active Directory and sends an email when the password expire date is within 14 days.
