Sure you can do it but I fail to see the benefit. Why not just have the
citrix client on the desktops. Or use an ICA file with just the web client
or better yet use Nfuse?

Sorry,
I think I did not explain this clear enough.
We already have published Apps on a Metaframe server.  What I want to do =
is access published apps from the Citrix server on a Win2k TS desktop.  =
Is this possible ?
TIA
Malcolm

You can't publish applications with TS,
(unless you get EOL Apportal

need
to have Citrix installed on it to Citrix publish applications.

Hello all,
I have a client that is currently running 2 published applications from =
=3D
our Collocated servers in a datacenter.
This has been working very well for over 2 years.  They have decided to =
=3D
upgrade their local LAN that is currently a WinNT4 Servers and 120+ =3D
workstations running Win98/NT4WS/Win2K in 3 offices 500miles apart.
They like the thin client environment and would like to have Win2K =3D
Terminal servers located in each office to replace the old servers and =
=3D
run ALL users from these terminal server.  this is because they do not =
=3D
want to buy 120+ new PCs and have the admin nightmare of keeping all the =
=3D
software up to date.

What I would like to do is put in Win2K server running TS and have all =
=3D
apps on these TS.  What I need to know is can a TS run a published =3D
Citrix Metaframe 1.8 application ?

The 2 published apps are MS Outlook2K for Exchange email and a VB =3D
front-end for a SQL database, if this matters.
I hope I have explained what we want to do.
