Re: CA Express, Citrix, Win2000

[Pat Barber <mboceanside@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

My one experience with Citrix was less than sterling... Just
remember that when you try to "blend" all these things into
a working "system", you will be dealing with several different
folks software, all trying to work together. I have heard of
folks that pulled it off with a lot of success, but be
prepared for lots of PTFs and a lot of luck.... To be fair
to the Citrix folks, I was also trying to install Network
Stations, which didn't go well at all......
