Unless Win CE.Net has got support for USB flash media. It seems to me that
although I have not seen Flash Media support on WinTerms, that Win CE.Net
generally DOES supports flash cards because of Pocket PC devices. I wonder
if you can bother WYSE to give you a module to add that will support it? I
would definitely bother them about it, sometimes you might be surprised what
they come back with.

Steve: That's what I am doing with the FAT clients. It's just that I will
need to update the WinTerm users to XP embedded OSes. The price of an XP
WinTerm is just about as much as a low end PC. We were hoping to be able to
go with a lesser priced (cheaper) WinTerm device. I guess this falls under
the heading... That's life.
Thanks,
Ken ...

I am assuming the flash card has data files on it:
If you use a thin client with an XP embedded OS, and were able to mount the
flash card as a drive letter, then you should be able to have the ICA client
software map that drive to the server session, it would something like "E:
Drive on client"

Based on the WinTerm devices I have available to test with, I am finding
this to be the case. I would like to know what models of WinTerm devices
would I need to be able to support a USB flash card reader?

Is it a Win CE device? You'll be extremely hard pressed to get anything more
complicated than mice, keyboards and printers to work on a terminal USB
port. The terminal would need drivers for the card reader and the vast
majority don't support addon drivers, even if you can get them for CE.
Of course, I'll be delighted to be proved wrong.

Hello. I am hoping that this list can help me. I have a need to use a USB
flash card reader via a Wyse 1200LE WinTerm device. My Citrix farm consists
of 4 Windows 2000 SP3 servers, running MetaFrame XPe FR2/SP2. The Wyse
1200LE has a USB port. What do I need to do to get the Wyse device and
Citrix to recognize the USB flash reader?
Thanks in advance for all the help!
