Lauch restricted apps or desktops that allow the users to only execute word/excel with RMS and don’t allow them to connect to that server/share from computers other than the citrix/MS TS.

2) Use a webserver app to access the folder or share with a service account and let it open up the app in a browser for the user. Again, with RMS you should be able to prevent them from copying it (I never tried RMS though).

If I take a real life example, I would like to allow people to read books (files) in the library (share), but I do not want to allow them to take it home (copy on their local drive) or anywhere else (outside of the library).

Thank all of you for your help!
