Citrix will tell you that all servers in the farm should use the same OS, SP levels, patches etc., and this is good practice. However, it is possible to have servers running different OS' in the same farm. Regarding the data collectors - all other things being equal, the servers with the later...

Best thing you can do it to read the admin and advanced concepts guides (available at http://support.citrix.com/docs/ ). Also, make sure you familiarise yourself thoroughly with the management consoles - pay attention to where you would find the option to change typical settings e.g. XML port...

Thanks for the help Mike. Unfortunately, this still didn't work - the app is still appearing off the screen. Bonkers! I'm putting it down to a peculiarity of the video card/monitor setup. Cheers.

If you are using roaming profiles, its a good idea to delete the roaming profile cache on logoff (in group policy) so that the locally cached copy of the profile is deleted from the terminal server when the user logs off - the updated profile is copied to the network location and the local copy...

Have a look at ThinStation. It's a linux based thin client OS that you can boot from the HDD or a CD (I've even done it with a memory stick)and allows you to do just this. http://thinstation.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/ThIndex

Are you seeing any IMA error messages in the event log of the server which you are connected to? Would there be more than one person logging on using the same user account?

You need to use the DSMAINT utility, and its pretty straightforward. The command is dsmaint migrate [{ /srcdsn:dsn1 /srcuser:user1 /srcpwd:pwd1}] [{/dstdsn:dsn2 /dstuser:user2 /dstpwd:pwd2}] You will already have a new DB configured on SQL and a file DSN setup that points at it (dstdsn) Check...

Also, if you're limiting the profile size, you may want to use folder redirection to redirect profile hogs (like temporary internet files etc)out of the profile. Also, things like MyDocs can be redirected off to a network location, which can be backed up and virus scanned separately from the...

There's obviously the Citrix support website - really good admin guides etc. http://support.citrix.com/docs/ Check out the "Getting started with MetaFrame Presentation Server" PDF. Another good source of info is Brian Madden's website http://www.brianmadden.com/

No problem, but could you send me a diagram with your current setup, indicating which ports are opened etc? (obviously remove the actual IP's and replace with dummy ones - can't be too careful these days! ;o)) Do you have an email address I can contact you on?

The Altaddr command should be altaddr /set 69.x.x.x This will tell the CTX server what it's alternate address is. By setting the WI DMZ setting to Alternate, you tell the WI to request the alternate address from the CTX server when it asks for the location of the requested app. As you have...

Thanks Mike. You're right of course - Doh! To be honest, I dont think it's so much the size of the window as the position it opens in, but anything is worth a try. Thanks for your help.

Thanks for the reply Mike. Unfortunatly, this will launch the application in a window, as opposed to seamless. This doesn't suit our application, as it creates pop-up alerts. If the application is running in a window, the window will have to be in the foreground in order for the user to see...

If you have VPN access, you should just be able to hit the internal IP of the Citrix server. No altaddr required! If you didn't have a VPN, you could setup the Citrix server with Web Interface and an alt address. Configure the altaddr to be the same as your external IP and configure the...

If you are going to put your Citrix servers in to an OU and have the policy applied to the machines rather than users (e.g. if you wanted to have folder redirection for desktops), then you may have to set the following setting in the GPO. Computer configuration, administrative templates...

The preferred way to do this is to use Citrix Access Gateway or Secure Gateway. Access Gateway is a hardware box that sits in the DMZ of your firewall and is an SSL VPN device. Secure Gateway does a similar job but uses software installed on a Windows server. It acts as a broker between the...

Hi all, I have a problem which is proving v. difficult to find a solution to. I wonder if anyone can help. The problem is that we have some users with multiple monitor setups. Some users will try to launch the application in seamless mode, but when they do, the app window appears off one...
