I looked in the syslog file and it seems like it might be something to do with the desktop gui if I understand them correctly. I am attaching the parts I think are relevant out of the 2 log files I reviewed to see if you can come up with anything from them.

Thanks for replying. I'm not much of a Linux person. Can you point me to the specific log and its location in the file system where I should be able to find it? Also, is there Horizon client-side log that might have some information? if so, where would I find that? Thanks...

I know its not supported, but I'm trying to get a VM that runs Mint Linux set up as a pool in View. I'm using View 2203. The View Linux agent seems to install just fine and everything seems fine in the View admin interface. It recognizes the Mint VM and the agent on it. I am able to create a pool for it. When I go to login to the Mint VM via the Horizon client it successfully brings up a session with the Mint GUI's login screen. As soon as I put in a set of valid credentials it immediately disconnects though. I didnt install the View agent with the SSO enabled option but the Mint VM is AD joined and I know AD login works fine on it when I login from the console. It doesn't matter whether I use a local account or an AD account though at the login screen when I connect with the View client, I still get kicked off immediately. When I look in the View admin console events it pretty much just says that I logged off the same moment that I logged on. Anyone have any suggestions or ideas? Thanks...

Hi Pim, I know this is kind of old but I am having the exact same issue as this person had. I am using Windows 10 22H2 with DEM 2203 and a GPO. When I run the logoff task command from the cli as a test user logged into the VDI desktop it clears the bginfo stuff from the background just fine but for some reason it doesn't seem to work when DEM actually runs it as a logoff task. Its not a major issue because the stale data is only there for a few seconds on the next login but I would love to get it working. Any help would be appreciated... pricemc1

Right after adding to this thread asking about this, I noticed there is a GPO setting ""Connect using DNS Name" that can be applied to force the Blast connection to use DNS instead of IP. With that being said, a wildcard cert added to the linked clone source VM and configured to be used for Blast should work. Reference the following KB for information on the GPO: VMware KB: When connecting to a View virtual machine using Blast, SSL Session is invalid Reference the Horizon HTML Access docs for information on how to change the cert on the linked clone source VM. (Section titled: Configure HTML Access Agents to Use New SSL Certificates) https://www.vmware.com/pdf/horizon-view/horizon-html-access-document.pdf If you are using View 6.1 (as I am) then you have to do this differently because that GPO setting has been removed. Reference the bottom of the page on following online 6.1 doc: View Agent Configuration ADM Template Settings Exact procedure listed here: Give Preference to DNS Names When View Connection Server Returns Address Information I haven't tried this myself yet but I will in the next few days and try to report my results.
I believe you are correct that the Blast connection is made using the IP address assigned to the View Desktop. When I looked at the URL, it seems to attempt to use the IP Address. I was just curi...

I believe you are correct that the Blast connection is made using the IP address assigned to the View Desktop. When I looked at the URL, it seems to attempt to use the IP Address. I was just curious if anyone has managed to find a work around that tells it to use the DNS name instead?

Thanks for that utterly useless reply. Any chance you could list the document and page number for the section you are referring to or put in a link to it since all the documentation is online? Even better, maybe describe what you think the issue is and then reference the doc section or describe the fix directly, saving everyone the time of having to guess what you mean?
