Re: Why are you on a *nix desktop?

In any case my experiences with VPN-clients is that they tend to conflict.

I had one customer give me VPN access using "Cisco AnyConnect VPN Client"
and it has worked excellent for 5250 connectivity (I was surprised because
it works even better than the traditional Cisco VPN client that most of the
world has and the one I use to connect to IBM's VLP machines).

Access to Windows Remote Desktop through Terminal Server Client has been
there since 8.04 I am pretty sure.

Have you downloaded and installed the Linux Citrix Client?

I have an older Dell at home that I installed Ubuntu (9.04 Jaunty) on
to mess around with, and I wanted to sign into work through the
browser. Was able to download the client but could not get the
install right. Just curious if you had done this and if you ran
into any issues. I wouldn't consider myself a major geek....but geek
enough to install Ubuntu to play around with. :-)

Is the Citrix client only the remote desktop protocol or is it more?
Access to a computer inside a closed network? Full VPN-access?

In any case my experiences with VPN-clients is that they tend to
conflict. So only one pr installation - if you need more, then that is
a perfect use case for virtual machines.

(and remote desktop is available in 9.04 as "terminal services client" I
believe)
