Adding Domain Users is a hammer solution - there's no out for a one off. I'd 
create some AD groups for this even if you temporarily nest domain users in the 
AD group, you can change who is in scope later without reconfiguring any 
images, templates, etc.

Subject: [NTSysADM] Making user accounts members of Guests

We generally configure a lot of our implementations where we like to use a 
local profile (for reasons of certificates, and also to avoid storing template 
profiles on the network), but we like the profile to be discarded at logoff 
time as we use third-party software for saving profile settings. Previously we 
used to do this by "spoofing" a temporary profile - when the user logs off, we 
edit the Registry key that tells Windows what the profile type is, changing it 
to "temporary" so that the OS flushes the profile when the user logs off.

However - I could just do this by making all users members of the Guests group, 
as Guest profiles are automatically flushed at logoff too (unless they're 
Administrators).

So, my question is - are there any possible unforeseen side-effects from making 
all my Domain Users members of the local Guests group on all my XenApp servers?

Cheers,
