I'm currently testing a new setup which uses storefront 1906 + Netscaler gateway (latest) + Workspace app for windows 1905 that I just finished setting up.
I then configured -for testing and validation purposes- in Storefront that logons to this website should timeout and logoff 1 minute after no activity as follows:
When testing logging in from for instance a Chromebook from an external internet line through the Netscaler Gateway I validated succesfully that I get the "logoff successful" page after 1 minute inactivity but when testing the same from a Windows 1905 app for windows I cannot get authentication to pop-up.
For the record I'm aware that the windows app never gives a "log off" message and that your apps and desktops remain visible but -according to the documentation- I'm supposed to at least get the authentication pop-up to happen when clicking the app/desktop past the timeout.
No authentication pop-up happens. Instead the workspace app for windows reconnects to the existing (previously disconnected) Citrix session immediately which is a potential security breach according to our company policy. I need to ensure that re-authentication is enforced whenever people -past the timeout- manually click the icon in Workspace app for windows to start/reconnect Citrix apps and desktops
