Hi
80% of the apps will be ICA based.  Other 20% local Apps.  No Thin Clients, 
Windows XP fat client PC's in each site.  For 100 users, how did you setup 
printing?  Eg Citrix Universal Printing?  Local office Print Servers or 
centralised Print Server?
 
Thanks
Ang

i ran about 100 users per site off of 1.5 MPLS circuits and it was great.  If 
you are going to be running pure ICA traffic to thin clients, I wouldn't worry 
about wanscaler but I would prioritize port 1494 on the links.

HII have the fortunate situation where I have the opportunity to redesign our 
company WAN links / Citrix design.  Is there a best practice for numerous small 
branch offices (10 - 40 users)?  We have 30 sites around the country connected 
via frame relay links.  If you had the opportunity to design your farm from new 
how would you do it??.  Application use is fairly simple (Office, Outlook etc). 
 Im not looking for assistance on Citrix farm numbers, more high level..  This 
is what Im thinking:4Mb WAN links from Head Office to all sites (direct, not 
via other branches)Centralised Print Server in Head OfficeCitrix Presentation 
Server 4.5Tricerat ScrewDrivers for PrintingWould this be a good start?  Would 
anyone add Citrix WANScalers also or would 4Mb links be sufficient for sites 
with 40 users or less?Am I on the right 
track?ThanksAng_________________________________________________________________Windows
