As a possible solution to a "political" situation in my workplace I'm =
looking into the possibility of using a dumbed down PC in a =
predominantly thin-client Win2000/Citrix environment. I need the PC so =
that I can connect a PocketPC (USB cradle) to the PC and perform =
activesync with the users Outlook. I plan on having the user working =
primarily through a published desktop in the Citrix environment, and not =
having any applications on the PC itself where I can help it. I know I =
could just install the basic OS and Outlook on the PC along with the ICA =
client and achieve the functionality I'm looking for, but I'm hoping for =
something more streamlined so the user has more of a "single-sign-on, =
works like magic in the background" experience. I remember seeing =
several packages for stripped down ICA clients using PC's.. but I =
haven't played with any of them and don't know if they are what I'm =
looking for.

Anyone have configuration/application advise to offer?

Thanks,
David
