OK I decided to write this up after unsuccessfully being able to find all the required info I needed in one place. In this setup we will be using Ubuntu Server 22.04.2 LTS as the OS. I have this running on a home lab ESXi server 8, on a HP Compaq Pro 6300 SFF CPU = Intel Core i7-3770 Installed Memory 16 GB I have some 10K SAS drives installed for the VM's If you have not already, navigate to  Get Ubuntu Server | Download | Ubuntu and download the 22.04.2 LTS ISO Next Lets create our VM that we are going to run this in. *Note Im using ESXi however you can probably do this in Workstation, Fusion, VirtualBox etc The main things to note on the VM creation.

VMware View VMs stuck on logoff

You may get into a situation where your View VMs do not log off correctly. Typically this happens because the VM is waiting for an application to close and is prompting for user interaction. This is a common issue. This can be worked around by setting some registry keys in the HKCU hive. however this is quite cumbersome , so i have created a user GPO to do exactly this! I created this adm template that can be imported into AD and pushed to your VDI users, it allows you to change the following settings: AutoEndTasks: Determines whether user processes end automatically when the user either logs off or shuts down https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc978604.aspx HungAppTimeout: Specifies how long the system waits for user processes to end after the user clicks the  End Task  command button in Task Manager . If this threshold is exceeded, the  End Task dialog box appears, stating that the process did not respond. https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc978614.aspx
