Environment

Novell SecureLogin 7.0
Novell SecureLogin 7.0.1
Novell SecureLogin 7.0.2
Citrix XenApp 6

Situation

Novell SecureLogin not interacting with published applications from a Citrix XenApp 6 server.
Novell SecureLogin interacts correctly with desktop sessions.
Novell SecureLogin module slwts.exe does not start as expected when accessing a published application.

Resolution

Apply the latest HF from Citrix. The latest HF available from Citrix at the time this TID was composed was XA600W2K8R2X64051.msp.
 
Reason for the failure:
SLWTS.exe calls WFQuerySessionInformation to get the name of the published application. NSL will not be started if no valid application name is returned by the mentioned Citrix SDK api.

On Citrix 6.0 server WFQuerySessionInformation never returns the application name thereby failing to start NSL.

Please refer to the following articles from Citrix

Additional Information

Steps to reproduce:
1.Install NSL in GINA mode at both Server and Client
2.Publish some of the application from server side
3.From client Login into ICA client 12.0 and try to access any of the published application

Expected Result:
Passthrough to happen and SSO for applications should be successful

Observed Result:
Once after Passthrough happens, NSL is not coming up and so SSO is not happening
