What are some of the positive benefits of installing feature release 1 on an existing XPS installation? Does it provide any more speed or security?

Not sure of all the benefits, however, FR2 is available for download on the Citrix site... Mike Brown CCA

The downside of FR2 is that it doesn't work with NT4 - or rather, is not supported, and you need Subscription Advantage to get the features, otherwise it's SP2 - a service pack.

The advantages of both are that the service packs are included, and there are a lot of bug fixes.

FR2 includes (re-introduces!) the Summary Database, which is fantastic for those of us who want historical reports. There's also Billing, Crystal Reports support (templates downloadable from Citrix.com), Delegated Admins and User policies.

Both include the Citrix Universal Printer Driver, which, although not perfect, has cured a lot of my headaches with remote users.

Have a look at the online demos on Citrix.com for more info.
