Hi Susan,
There are keyboard wedge card readers available that work fine in a
Citrix/terminal server environment. USB > serial devices are generally
intended for interfacing with serial devices on a USB bus, not the opposite.
As far as USB support for Metaframe, that will probably just be USB printer
support via a special client-side device driver.
Regards,
Rick

Subject: [THIN] USB Support in New MF?
Hi All
We will be having around 400 Citrix users using USB card readers shortly, w=
hich has left us wondering how we are going to make it happen. I have cons=
idered using serial to USB adaptors (if they exist, I haven't found any yet=
) but this option will work out fairly expensive.
I heard that the next version of MetaFrame will support USB but can't find =
any news about when this will be released. This will be the best solution =
if we can wait that long. Has anybody heard anything about the new release=
and if it will support USB. I would like to give the boss a timeframe as =
to when we can use the cards.
