I'm wondering if I should look into the Citrix ICA client for DOS. Has =
anyone used this before? =20
My goal here would be to make it so the user HAS to log in to the =
terminal server/citrix box and has no other options. I don't want them =
playing around in the PC's operating system at all. A thin client =
device is not an option due to cost, I need to re-use my current PC =
hardware. Maybe the Citrix DOS client would work. Claudio's DOS client =
is real nice, but it's terminal server only and chances are I'll likely =
grow into a load balanced farm with Citrix, not just terminal server.

I think it has to be an executable. I am not sure if there is a way to =
tie=20
the rdp file to the client executable or not. Anyone else tried this?
