Also use the SMC Console http://www.citrix4ge.de/ctxsdk/smcc.htm. It will
present you with the latency that each session is experiencing. Very
important information to understand. A Packeteer cannot really adddress WAN
"oversubscription" issues. Force speedscreen latency reduction to on, on
the clients. The initial ICA communications between the client and server
negotiate the best settings. This is not renegotiated during the session.
So if you are using a WAN technology that is not consistent, such as ADSL,
it's very difficult to manage.

Cheers.

Here is Cisco's article on autonegotiation and duplex speeds...
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/tech/tk389/tk214/technologies_tech_note09186a0080094781.shtml

It is very common to see switches set at Half duplex and server cards set
at full duplex or visa versa and this creates a big bottleneck.

 If anything the packetshaper should improve the performance not hinder it.
 If it is network issues I would start looking at portfast settings if
 cisco switches..
 http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/473/12.html And also make sure that
 duplex speeds are properly configured on the server network cards and
 switches.
 Also check out Michaels article on performance issues where he touches on
 the Maxworkitems registry keys..

 Will be troubleshooting a situation at a company where Packetshaper is
 used including Citrix traffic. Any heads up about the use of Packetshaper
 and Citrix. Apparently they are having some performance issues.
