Сonfiguring a Secure Login Enterprise Launcher
Overview
This article outlines the process of configuring a secure Launcher, focusing on 4 key components: Requirements, Preparation, Setting the hostname of the Launcher, Converting the Windows Sandbox to a Service, and Adding Additional Connector Software. Follow these steps to ensure a secure and efficient setup. Make sure to review the prerequisites before proceeding to each part for a smooth configuration experience.
Requirements
To configure the Login Enterprise secure Launcher, you need the following items:
The Login Enterprise Launcher installation files
Step 1: Preparation
Enable the Windows Optional Feature Sandbox manually or by using Enable_Windows_Sandbox.ps1. A Reboot is necessary.
Create a folder in the root of C:\ named HostFolder.
Place InstallLauncher.ps1 in C:\HostFolder.
Download the Login Enterprise installation files from your Login Enterprise Appliance: Configuration > Launchers > Download Launcher Setup.
Extract launcher_win10_x64.zip.
Copy the folder launcher_win10_x64 to C:\HostFolder.
Step 2: Setting the hostname of the Launcher
Edit the appSetting.json file in the launcher_win10_x64 folder.
Under the LauncherSettings section, change the LauncherName value to Windows_Sandbox_Launcher or something more applicable to you.
Place SandboxConfig.wsb in C:\HostFolder.
10. Doubleclick SandboxConfig.wsb to run the Windows Sandbox and verify that the Launcher is installed and is connected to your Login Enterprise environment.
Step 3: Convert the Windows Sandbox to a Service
Close the Windows Sandbox if this is still running.
Download nssm.exe from here: https://nssm.cc/release/nssm-2.24.zip
Extract the zip file and place the folder in C:\HostFolder.
Download Create_Sandbox_Service.ps1 and place it in C:\HostFolder.
Run Create_Sandbox_Service.ps1.
When prompted, select SandboxConfig.wsb in C:\HostFolder.
A new service named Login Enterprise on Windows Sandbox should be visible in Services.msc.
Start the Login Enterprise on the Windows Sandbox service.
After a minute or 2, verify that the Login Enterprise Launcher is connected to your Login Enterprise Appliance under Configuration > Launchers.
Step 4: Add Additional Connector Software
To add additional software, such as the Citrix Workspace app or Horizon Client, place the installation file in "C:\HostFolder". Along with the installation files, create a CMD file. For example: CitrixWorkspaceApp.cmd.
In the .cmd file, specify the installation parameters for the installation file. For example: C:\SandboxFolder\CitrixWorkspaceApp.exe /silent /noreboot /ALLOWADDSTORE=N
Make sure to use C:\SandboxFolder as the root folder, as this is what's referred to in the Sandbox machine.
