Citrix XP in a 4.0 domain

Here's a stickler: We run a Citrix Farm, Nfuse 1.6 running on Win2k AdvServers authenicating in a 4.0 domain. We want to lock down the servers so no user, or select users only, can see the server resources via any published application (i.e., local drives in MSWord or Excel).

The clients range from Win95 thru Win2k with everything inbetween. We are already using roaming profiles to lock down selected NT 4.0 workstations and do not want those profiles to hinder Nfuse users who may have those profiles attached. Nor do we want profiles with the drives hidden to hinder everyone....

Anyone tackle this problem yet? Lets see if I can get some answers before I figure it out....

create your farm and you have the option to allow access certain users on your domain when you create the published apps. For instance I have some users that bring up the farm in the citrix neighborhood and they can only see a select amount of the published apps because I did not grant them rights to everything. Hope that helps

Let me clarify: We are running NFuse (which ARE published Apps.)Access is controlled to each published app by Global Group from the NT 4.0 domain. When a user, authenticated from an NT 4.0 domain uses any application, such as MSWord, they can see the individual Citrix Server resources such as the local drives. This is unacceptable. To hide these drives via NT 4.0 policy also hides the users local workstation drives. Also unacceptable.
Any thoughts?
