I have already monitored the ICA Browser with a sniffer.=20 * When using the TCP/IP comunication: The client will do three broadcast on the lan to find the servers, if not = founded, he will try to locate the server by the list on the Server = Location list. * If you use the TCP/IP + HTTP comunication: The client will try to resolve the name ICA to find the server. If you add = an IP address on the Server Location, it will go direct to the server, by = default on port 80, but you need to point to the XML port. ________________________________________=20 Sergio Adriano Blum - www.sisnema.com.br=20 MCP - MCSA - MCDBA - MCSE - CCA - CCEA ByBLUM Developments Microsoft Certified System Engineer Microsoft Certified Database Administrator Citrix Certified Enterprise Administrator ________________________________________ >>> testjunk2003@xxxxxxxxx 05/30 11:30 pm >>> Hi, Is ICA browsing mandatory to achieve remote access=20 functionality. If so i was wondering for what reasons. I would like to = know for both TCP/IP case and TCP/IP + HTTP (using XML on port 80 for = browsing) cases. Because an ICA client can directly connect to MetaFrame = server just by entering server IP address. Any help is greatly appreciated.= thanks, bob --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!?
