once upon a not so long ago...

Frame Relay bandwidth is/was often sold at peak bursting bandwidth
speed as opposed to typical pipeline.  That 128k pipe was really
running at 64k.  Not a Citrix problem, per se.  Make sure you have
that spelled out very clearly by your supplier.  Size the pipe to
accomodate you std traffic and your bursty traffic and you'll be fine.
 Did I mention not to map client network printers?

regards,
bob
