Hello Hector, First of all, you have 48 hours before your servers will stop working (and I think 96 hours if you're using MetaFrame XP with SP3). Pointing your servers to a new DS is easy. They use the MF20.dsn file, in the "Independent Management Architecture" directory. You can either manually update that dsn to point to the new server or use the dsmaint command to specify a new dsn. The real problem for you, however, is that your database is currently in SQL. If you want to use Access, you'll have to migrate the the DS from SQL format to MS Access. The good news is that dsmaint can do this. The bad news is that you need a functional SQL server to do it. If I were you, I wouldn't worry about building the Access server, and instead I would focus on getting your SQL server up. If you have failed hardware and you're waiting for parts, you'll have a build a temporary SQL server out of whatever's available.

It'll take me a while to get it back up. What do I need to do temporarily move the Citrix licensing to an Access Database on one of the Citrix servers. Specifically, how do I point the servers to the new database (farm) on Acces? Any help is appreciated. _________________________________ Hector Minero NSWCDD Code K55 Ph: (540)653-8859 Fax:(540)653-8575 ******************************************************** This Week's Sponsor - RTO Software / TScale What's keeping you from getting more from your terminal servers?
