Can I change Username & Password on a per device basis via WMS?
Coming from zero client world (dell wyse zero clients) I was able to change username and passwords from the web interface. This is was great for auto-logon devices. We're transitioning to thin clients and currently using WMS to manage.
I'm wondering if there is any way to be able to change the username and password of a device that is managed in WMS. The only thing I can think of is creating a config specifically for the account.
Am I missing any other ideas?

You can leverage variables in the space for "Default Username" and "Default Password" in the WMS policy.
For instance you could use $TN as the Username, and $TN as the password. This would authenticate to Citrix as the terminal name for username and password. You would create an AD Account that is the terminal name of the device, set the password to be the terminal name, and give it rights to the application in Citrix.
This is just an example, and probably not something you would want to use in production.
Page 10 of this guide will help with the different variables you can key off of.
