CRM 2011 deployment on Citrix

Today a collegue wanted me to create a installation package for CRM 2011 for Outlook on a Citrix farm. To manage this task I did the following;

  1. Created a TS-deployment package (that installs the software)
  2. Created a script för user customizations (on logon for each user) - targeted with GPO
Below is the scripts that I used in the environment with short explains in the REMARKS.
