Security Issue - Publishing multiple apps with same .exe?

$

When publishing iExplore.exe (and passing in the URL as a parameter) allowing us to publish simple individual URLs, multiple published sites pointing to iexplore.exe will fail to obey both the User Assignment and ‘Show the Remote App Program in RD Web Access’ Yes/No function.

When multiple published apps point to the same exe their alias is post pended with (1),(2),(3)….. Not sure if this is relevant?!

This anomaly's symptoms are the app icon simply fails to be hidden in RD Web  when their User Assignment is removed!

It's certainly apparent when pointing to multiple instances of iexplore.exe or RDP (mstsc.exe) - although I don't think this is evident across all .exes


Workaround

The workaround was to create individual bat files calling said affected exes and pass associated parameters in, an example below:

iExploreBES.bat
start "" "C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe" "https://bbadmin.domain.com/webconsole/login"

iExploreEXCH.bat
start "" "C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe" "https://<servername>1/ecp"

iExploreRDP01.bat
start "" "mstsc.exe" "RDPSession01.rdp"

iExploreRDP02.bat
start "" "mstsc.exe" "RDPSession02.rdp"

Has anyone else seen this - am I missing something?

Cheers
Lea
