well we are on NT 4 domain. We use WINS servers for internal resolution and
external DNS servers for external addresses.  I thought.  

plus. if i ping the name from my workstation with is win2000pro, it works
just fine.

 Michael,

It would appear that the DNS servers your internal machines are using for
name resolution are returning the external IP of your exchange servers. If
you are using internal DNS servers change your entries on your DNS servers
for your Citrix servers to show the internal IPs. If you are using external
DNS servers, well, use internal DNS servers and let them resolve external
names....



HTH-

Jeff

Ok here is one for all you IP gurus out there.  I have been having lots
of
problems with published apps since we started using them.  IE. they
would
NOT work.  AFter many long ours on the phone with citrix support we
determined that it is my network.  Our servers are named xp1, xp2, xp3
etc.
We use internal 10.10.1.x addressing for ip network and use pix firewall
to
map external ips to internal ips. 

Now for the fun part.  When we ping 10.10.1.101 for xp1 it is fine.  but
if
we ping xp1, it returns the dns name of xp1.vdesktop.org and the
external
public address which will not work inside and causes servers not to see
each
other.  Has anyone seen this and know why it is doing it.  my brain is
fried
and I can't figure it out.

HELP.

Thanks,
