[THIN] Re: Default Server Location

Yeah you could do that. 

Ensure that one of the servers you use with the existing IPs is the XP

Subject: [THIN] Re: Default Server Location

Could I steal the IP addresses from the 1.8 servers (3 total) and use it
for some of the XP servers and give the 1.8 server
temporary IP addresses until I turn them off?...  I would of course
update the DNS entries to reflect the change...  That way
when I'm in "mixed mode", the Default Server Location IP addresses will
point to the XP servers and I won't have to touch the
clients when I switch over to "native mode".

We have 12 total Citrix servers (3 - 1.8 servers, 9 - XP servers) and
1800+ ICA clients.  It would be a whole lot easier making
the change at the server level if possible.

Thanks for all the help,
Derek
