Hmmm this seems a little odd to me. Seems to be connecting to itself? Is this 
normal? I'm seeing this on both Citrix servers.

Matthew meant to say run 'NETSTAT' from the command line.

Run an online scan like Trend Micro - maybe your Virus program is not working 
properly and your infected.
 
Also do some spyware scans.
 
If you run NETSAT from command line can see if servers are trying to connect to 
somewhere they should'nt be or if something is coming inbound that should not 
be.
 
When your servers are runing fine would be good time to run the scans.

That's the problem, when the system starts going slow I can't see what 
processes are running. I managed to get Task Manager up one time but all I 
could see what the CPU and it pretty much froze when I tried to look at the 
tasks.

Do a packet sniff on the LAN to see if anything out of the ordinary.
 
What processes can you see running on the Citrix boxes when it slows down?

He worked mostly on PCs and LAN and had no access to routers. I found that when 
the problem occurs that unplugging the server from the network doesn't make any 
difference. It still grinds to a hault with no CPU or disk activity.

Thanks for the into!

What did he work on?
 
Maybe switches\routing? Perhaps he has created problems by rearranging the 
uplinks or maybe a conflict with 10/100 vs Gb ports\switches\nics.
 
Maybe ACLs created on routers or some other fudging. Had that happen recently 
at a site where jr. tech created loop by incorrectly placed uplink and same 
thing where the Citrix servers at that site where up and down till someone 
discovered the mistake.

We had a Network Engineer leave (not on good terms) and since then I've been 
experiencing problems with our Citrix servers locking up. Maybe I'm just 
paranoid but the problem started happening right after he left and generally 
occurs between 10am and noon (never had problems before this). It doesn't 
happen everyday but has occurred on both of our servers (win2K SP4/PS4). The 
server seems to just go slow with no disk or CPU utilization. 
 
Â
 
Are there any known ICA vulnerabilities? Both of these servers have port 1494 
open facing the Internet. Any suggestions would be most helpful as I can't get 
on the server to diagnose when the problem occurs and all logs show things are 
normal.
