Any problems changing ip addresses on Citrix Server

[tekieVB]

Hello to All,

Hopefully an easy question for all of you Citrix Guru's, which I definitely am not.

I have three Citrix servers, two Metaframe 1.8 and one XP 1.0 all running on top of MS TS 4.0 SP6. The two 1.8 servers have load balancing configured and I have several of the published apps balanced between the two servers.

We are having to change our LAN IP structure this weekend, to fall within our corporate network addressing schemes. They (Corporate IT) always have to create special routes, ACLs, and FW rules for the addressing scheme we follow, since we do not fall within theirs global address/mask.

Anyway, is there anything special in changing ip addresses on Citrix servers, as compared to a File/Print NT server? Of course all of the WINS and DNS will be updated accordingly to the new host ip addresses.

Anything else I should be on the look out for? I have checked Tek-Tips, Google, and the Citrix site itself, nothing sticks out that looks like a problem or am I missing something?!

Any help or pointers would greatly be appreciated!

No problem.

Just make sure your clients program neighborhood. Do they connect with the ip-address of the citrix server??

Yes - via ip address and not names.
To bad, more leg work for me.

I wish I knew someway to automate this change, none of the Buisness Units process the same logon script and we don't run SMS.... Any ideas?

you can configure one client with the new ip address list and then copy the citrix client .ini files by login script to your local computers
