I haven't used Kiosk mode much to be honest. I primarily use it as a
SSL web interface, but I have messed with the SSL VPN side of it (which
I found to be rather basic, but did not honestly do much reading on it).
You can download the AdminGuide from citrix.com and it has details on
Kisok mode. Briefly:
Uses a Java client if JVM is high enough, otherwise uses the access
portal page, which requires a download.
Kisok mode lets you enable a firebox web browser, shared network drives,
access to VNC, RDP, Telnet, SSH, and Citrix Client.
I basically use mine as the CSG software product, but instead of having
to secure a windows box, the Access Gateway is a hardened Linux box. It
also gives me these extra features, and from what I've read of some
older Citrix KB articles, they have already added features to the Access
Gateway in it's current version that did not exist in the previous, so
it seems to be an upgradable platform.
I'd imagine, The Secure ID stuff would be things you integrated on the
WI box.

we have a bank in vienna that needs a citrix environment as secure as
possible...
from what I read there's some kiosk mode with no client installation.
when I hear no clien installation....I wake up....sure there's some
plugin needed isn't there?
the applicance gives you the option....the publish apps to normal citrix
client outside and/or run in kiosk mode or users have " no"
clients.?????
how about intergration with secure ID? do you have any experience with
that?
thanks for your time...
I'm going to Vienna on monday for a meeting with the customer.....

I have 2 gateways running in my production environment. I can try and
answer any questions. I find them to be extremely basic and no frills,
easy to management, just do what they are advertised to.

Subject: [THIN] Citrix access Gateway
Hi,
I'm looking for more than one PDF about the new Citrix appliance, the
access gateway.
Can anyone help me with some hands on experience? Or a demo site......
For some prjects (although I'm not in the Citrix bussiness, I get the
questions) I would like to use something like this appliance.
But with only one pdf to read it's hard to advice someone what to do.
Thanks for any help
Greetings
Rob
