Hi all,
I've have 4 Citrix servers now running 4.0 Ent and W2K in their own seperate
domain.
One is the PDC, license and print server, the other three are worker bees.
Works just OK (some apps and printing failing and causing problems).  We
only
use it for internet access (w/plugins, etc) and Office apps, all on Wyse
CEs, and not
expected to grow much given current funding levels.

I'm trying to start a new W2K3 setup with PS 4.5 Ent.
Question is, as I read the Citrix Admin Guide (p.34-37), should I go with
the
Access DB, or SQL Express, and how exactly does 'Indirect access'
work (since I don't do that now)?  Pro's and cons, or should I try to spring
for the
full SQL license, and/or upgrade to PS4.5 Platinum?

TIA! - George
PS - And what's up with the W2K3 Unblocking files (what a pain!)?
PPS - Haven't seen much Friday humor on the list lately.
