Citrix on Exchange 2000 Box??

[bgl3775]

We are coming in behind a previous VAR who has loaded Citrix on an Exchange Server. Any thoughts on this practice good or bad? Any environments where this has been done successfully...what are the challenges? Thanks in advance for input.

Hi bgl3775

I've never seen Exchange and Citrix on 1 box, but I would say that running Citrix on an Exchange should only be done in a smaller environment, where you need things on the same server.
I would expect Exchange to go down in performance, when running Citrix, but if you only have a few users that could be acceptable.

If you don't like it, a moving of Exchange is pretty simple, depending on your experience with Exchange

I hope it helps, and if not, try to post more information about the solution (# users on Exchange and/or Citrix, server spec's etc.).

Best regards,
Yamamoto
