Here's a squirrelly one.
I have been asked to find a way to launch a Citrix session from a link
within a Lotus Notes R5 client.
We have an app for reconciling credit card expenses that runs on a Notes
database. You receive an email when your expenses post with a link to
this database. Click on the link and the app launches. The problem is
this app performs terribly slow over the WAN. It runs acceptably well
though a Citrix session of Notes.
The easy solution would be to have everyone run Notes via Citrix. However,
only have of our sites use Citrix for all apps. For the other half, I
have been asked to find a way to allow users to still use their local
Notes client for mail, calendar, etc. but find a way to launch this
expense app through a Citrix session, and via that link in the
notification email.
So.... I am asking for help with a creative solution.
Might this be done with an embedded ICA file? I am wondering also if
content redirection could help me with this also? Any other suggestions?
Windows 2000, MetaframeXP and
Thanks,
Christopher
