Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\Citrix Components\Citrix Workspace\User authentication Description
Use this policy to control the ticketing infrastructure used when authenticating through the Web Interface. When this policy is enabled, legacy Web Interface ticketing can be disabled by clearing the "Legacy ticket handling" check box. Legacy Web Interface ticketing was implemented by passing a single-use authentication cookie to the server in the ClearText password field. Starting with version 4.5 of the Web Interface, the client handles an authentication token in the form of an opaque LogonTicket with an associated interpretation defined by the LogonTicketType. This functionality can be disabled by clearing the "Web Interface 4.5 and above" check box.
