BerichtMatt,

How far is the site from the nearest DSL/Cable/ISDN presence? Maybe you
could use wireless to get to some reasonably fast ISP and use VPN from
there.
Just a thought.

    Let me clarify. The Citrix server site (by car) is approximately  468
miles/754km away from this site.

    what aobut a 2-way wireless connection.
    We're doing tests now for a customer with numorous locations in a range
of 30km
    the worst connection we have is 4MB and the best connection is 34MB.
    I'll check the brand we're using, for I forgot, it's looking good so
far..


    I'll get back to you about this

      I have a customer site a rural town in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan
where I have real dilemma.

      The not-so-pretty facts:
      1) No DSL or Cable provider
      2) No local dialup or ISDN internet service

      There are 3.5 (1 is part-time) users at this site who use a Citrix
published desktop (they run primarily MS Office and a custom client/server
app).  I ended up going with a 56K frame relay circuit.  This is proving to
be very slow and expensive (now appx $700 USD/month).

      I have heard that 2 way satellite latency is just too high for Citrix
applications. Is that still the case?  Any technology or options that I
haven't considered worth looking at?

      Thanks in advance for assistance.
