Copy/Paste not working between View client and Mac 10.7.4

We are running View 5.0 and all agents on the vm's are version 5.  Our Macbooks are running OSX 10.7.4 and we cannot copy text between MS Word on the vm and MS word on the Mac.  I thought 1.4 was supposed to address this? Our Mac clients are running 1.5.

Anybody else have this issue?  Another post said something about a View policy but I only saw the Global Policies in the admin console and nothing about copy/paste is in there.  There are only like 4 options to allow/deny functions and copy/paste is not one.  All of ours are set to allow.

Thanks,

Mike

You administrator needs to import the PCoIP Administrative Template into the AD server (mass changes) or an individual VM, then you can find a GPO named 'Configure clipboard redirection' . You can set either way (Guest to Host, or Host to Guest) or both. Here is a doc link for your reference.

I found that, but was hoping VMware would go to the extreme of having to modify AD just to allow this.  It should be a setting within the admin console.  But you are correct.
