Perhaps someone can enlighten me. We've only ever administered Citrix
servers internally, so we have no experience with enabling Citrix through
the Internet.
We have some employees that want to connect to another company's Citrix
application, and our security personnel have some concerns. This external
company says that they can send the traffic solely through port 80, but I do
not believe they are using CSG. How is this possible? Are there any
security holes?
Our security personnel also know about Citrix's ability to force a client
upgrades and have wondered if other software could be pushed to a client
through this mechanism. And, they have concerns about our client drives and
printers being mapped to this remote system. Do client upgrades work from
remote systems and how is it accomplished? Could other software be
distributed through the client upgrade mechanism? Do client drives and
printers map when using Citrix servers remote to your network?
