I installed Citrix Workspaces because it is required for me to do remote work. After I installed it, I noticed that it created a standard account called "citrixlog". I found the link below that talks about that account. It is used by Citrix Workspaces for its logging.

What has me concerned is that the account has no password. If I add a password to it or delete the account, then it breaks logging. I am also hesitant to do that because breaking things in software can cascade into other things not working too.

Should I be concerned about this account?


The only reference I could find about the account on Citrix's site:
https://discussions.citrix.com/topic...pace-on-linux/

Never mind. I tried to log into the account and found that it does have a password. I have no idea what that password is but at least the password is not blank.

I am still not happy that Citrix created an account on my machine but at least they were not completely brain dead about it.
