XenDesktop 7 Director localhost issue

We faced an issue with xendesktop 7 director.

When the admin user logged on to the director server and launched it from the start menu it opens

http://localhost/Director

As soon as the user provides credentials , he's returned back to logion screen for Director.

There is no error in the event log or IIS logs.

We got it fixed by using  http://servername/Director  instead of  http://localhost/Director

You can change the Shortcut in Start menu to http://servername/Director




This may have something to do with the IIS , but not sure.

If you face this issue , you can try the above steps and see if that works for you

Hope this helps.
