No, as much of a fan of Softricity as I am, it would not solve this problem.
For some reason, accountants write really bad software! A different program
I had a hand in creating does handle this app, however. (Hint: triCerat
distributes it now).

I might be inclined to look into Softricity in this case which can still be
used in your Citrix environment.

Well - my plight against the accounting program that after 8-10 users on a
win2k3 server will peg the CPU is almost in the dirt. I have the CPU
throttle going to slap it down but I just cannot get a whole lot of users
when they run this program. I am not alone as I find others using Creative
Solutions Accounting in the accountant field has similar problems.
Tech support answer? - logout/in again. Grrr...Not good enough. Having them
fix their code it next to impossible....an accounting firm with the same
problem experimented and went back to Win2000 TS with better results.
Hmmmm....
So I sit here at the table looking for solutions. Throwing 2 more CPU's at
a cost of $5k will not cut it for I don't think it will still be able to
handle it. At $7k, I can get a PE2650 by dell and start down the road of LB
and start growing the farm.
Now - my question to the thin community....does anyone have luck with
Tarantella and how it compares to Citrix? I am waiting for costs on
Tarantella but I also think Citrix is overkill for 50 users just to get
published apps and load balancing (i.e. designate which user or app goes to
what server). I am not even at accounting season so this is only going to
get worse.
Thanks for the input.
