Dear all,
I'm having a connection problem. My CITRIX METAFRAME client running on Windows XP SP1 won’t connect to the server once the PC’s OS is updated with patches from Windows SUS server.

Can anyone assist me?

The fact is that from MS IE, I have to click on a link that launch my locally installed CITRIX METAFRAME client to connect to my target server. The connection progress dialog box will show but no connection will be made. After a while (5-6 minutes) following message displays:
"NETWORK OR DIAL-UP PROBLEMS ARE PREVENTING COMMUNICATION WITH METAFRAME SERVER."
I know that this does not occur on some PCs runing MS Windows XP SP1 that we decided not to put on MS SUS update server. Once updates from MS SUS server applies on the PC, the problem occurs and we have to re-install the PC from scratch. We even notice that upgrading to MS Windows XP SP2 makes the problem worst.
Have I been explicit enough?

Yes, do you know which updates you allowed to be installed? Sounds like a proxy or firewall issue but why it would be in a NS patch I don't know. Not up on CITRIX so I can't help there. Have you tried to ping the server?
 
I can't guest which of the patches is causing the problem. Ping do work, like I said 02 PC's connecting will have different result wether SUS patches are installed or not.
