We use Terminal Services and Citrix both from San Diego to London, Frankfurt, Paris, Singapore, Tokyo, and Sydney. It works really well, especially given the fact that some of our servers are NT4 TSE, running Citrix 1.8. We're working on the upgrade plan now. :) We also use Citrix for providing access to outside vendors in Norway, Sweden and the Netherlands. We actually went to this solution because of the increase in performance that the users needed. We are using Peregrine ServiceCenter 6, Peoplesoft 7.5 and 8 (on the same server no less), Siebel 6.5 and Getpaid (a collections package), all over the world. The servers are based here in San Diego, with a redundant server setup in London. We also use TS for server management, and in addition, we use Dameware for non-TS systems. Our network link to Europe is pretty slow, but with the advent of Terminal Services and Citrix, users have seen a 5-fold increase in performance. Let me know if you have any questions!

I'm worrying whether the fact that *noone* seems to have doen this means it's a Very Bad Idea Indeed. Not a single experience form anyone? Noone connected to their servers in Florida while on holiday in London? Or the other way round? -----Original Message----- From: Andrew Rogers [mailto:Andrew.Rogers@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: 22 July 2004 12:34 To: thin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [THIN] Re: NY-London TS No exp, but heres some thoughts, due to a lack of other replies! It might be a little sluggish when redrawing, but I wouldnt have thought it would be too bad. Speedscreen should take up the slack when typing.. you dont mention what the programs are, so you'll have to probably suck it and see! iirc you should still be pinging under a second for the round trip - as long as both sides have reliable and fast net connections of course :) Andrew --o-- >>> nick@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx 22/07/04 11:24:07 >>> My London (UK) based client has a need to access a couple of applications from his new New York office. There will only be 3 staff in the NY office - maybe rising to as much as 5! I've never done TS work across the Atlantic. Can anyone who has give me any comments about latency or other experience. My concern is that using TS - otherwise a good plan - will be very slow. Any thoughts?
