4 Configuring Connections to Servers and Applications 29
Write column, icons display each mapped drive that is enabled for use and
what type of access users have to the drive. Items that are no longer
available do not display a folder icon.
Icons that include a question mark indicate that a drive mapping has
“query” permissions. This is a security feature that means when any
application tries to read from or write to the folder, a dialog box appears
asking whether you want to allow or deny access. If you choose Deny,
access will be denied for the duration of the connection. In order to remove
the deny permission, close or disconnect the session and restart.
Drives A, B, and C are mapped automatically as follows:
3. Choose an available drive letter.
4. Click Browse. Choose the folder on the Macintosh hard disk to map and
click Choose. The Drive Mapping pane now displays the mapped folder. If
the drive letter selected is not available on the server, the specified folder is
mapped to another free drive letter.
5. Click Save.
6. Log off from any open ICA connections and reconnect.
Note: There is no way of ejecting removable media from within the client. To
eject a CD or other item, use the standard Macintosh methods.
To turn drive mapping off for a specific connection file
1. In the ICA Client Editor, open the connection file you want to edit.
Drive: Mapped to:
A A Macintosh removable media drive (floppy disk, USB flash drive, or
any other item that is removable and can be written to). Where there is
more than one removable drive, users can change the one to which drive

From the Drives menu, choose Client A Diskette to display the options
and choose the required drive.
B The Macintosh internal CD or DVD drive, or any other item that is
removable and non-writable, such as a disk image .dmg file. Where there
is more than one such item, users can change the one to which drive B is
mapped from within an ICA session:
From the Drives menu, choose Client B CDROM to display the options
and choose the required item.
C Permanently mapped to the user’s Home folder on the Macintosh hard
disk.
