After reading a little on the Gateway Service, it looks like it does not work 
for Windows 2003.  Also, we are running Novel 6.5 and we are only using IP not 
IPX.  It looks like the Gateway service only runs over IPX and on Windows 2000.
 
Am I reading this wrong?
 
Thank you,

This Gateway Service is looking better every time you all post on it.  
 
Will I be required to have a Windows Server CAL for each unique user account 
that accesses the terminal box and maps to Novell?

That's a new one on me. We use Gateway services and each user is bound by the 
NDS permissions on the Netware file server.

The problem with Gateway services is it is an all or nothing deal.  Basically 
it's a proxy between Windows and Netware so effectively everyone using the 
gateway will have full access to those shares.

Why don't you just install Gateway services for Netware on the Citrix box?

We are looking to move our vet hospital toward a thin solution using citrix.  
We currently use the Novel Client on computers to access the file servers.  
 
When we move to Citrix, how well does the Novel-Citrix integration work?  
 
We are planning to deploy the Microsoft Office applications, Novel GroupWise, 
and our own custom written medical application.  
 
We want to still allow users to keep their office files on the Novel servers. 
 
Is there a good guide to go by for setting this environment up or any pitfalls 
I should be wary about? 
 
 
Also, what licensing issues should we be looking out for?
 
 
Thank you in advance for any help or guidance this group can provide.
