I have a 2 sites A & B linked together with a bandwidth of 9.6KBPS. The apps being accessed are available on site B with Citrix Metaframe 1.8 on winnt terminal server 4. <br><br>Is it possible to optimise application access for at least 3 users to the applications off B from A over this link and if so how ?<br><br>thank you <br><br>Athar&nbsp;&nbsp;<br><br><br>&nbsp;<br>
 
Wow.&nbsp;&nbsp;I won't ever say it is impossible, because I can get a single metaframe session to operate over a 9600bps connection (it doesn't run fast or even well, but it does work).<br><br><u>HOWEVER</u>, the book does say that an ICA connection requires roughly 20k for a single connection.&nbsp;&nbsp;If you are using RDP, you may doubel that number to 40kbps.&nbsp;&nbsp;Again, this is for a single connection.<br><br>My experience has found that if you have 25-35k for an ICA connection, your users will complain <b>much</b> less.&nbsp;&nbsp;<br><br>Good luck!
