Right now I am experimenting with Citrix MetaFrame Presentation Server 3.0. I can't do much with it unless I get my NAT firewall configured just right so it will allow connections from the outside world. I've got the web interface set up on port 81 and configured my NAT firewall to allow connections to port 1494 from the outside, but I still get errors at the connection in progress dialog like "There is no Citrix MetaFrame server configured on the specified address." I think that citrix depends on the RDP port since it's an extension of the terminal server. I've been told that it doesn't depend on that port. Please help me out with this one I've been working on it since 1 O'clock in the afternoon. I would love to get this working so I could show this off at school.

You're lucky my XP Home OEM disk is from Citrix :D

Here's the text from my Valueadd\3rdparty\mgmt\Citrix\html file:


Citrix ICA Clients

Citrix Systems, Inc. is the world leader in server-based computing. Our MetaFrame™ and WinFrame™ software, based on our ICA® and MultiWin™ technologies, provides access to virtually any application, across any type of network connection from any type of client -- providing rapid application deployment and cost-effective solutions to maximize return on computing investments.

The ICA Client included on this compact disc lets you use any computer running Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows Me, Windows NT, Windows 2000, or Windows XP to run applications remotely on a server on which Citrix MetaFrame is installed, or on a Citrix WinFrame server.

On the support compact disc that ships with server versions of Windows XP you will find the ICA clients that run on Microsoft Windows Version 3.1, Windows for Workgroups Version 3.11, as well as hand-held PCs running WinCE.

ICA Clients offer the following advanced features:

* Transparent, configurable access to client disk drives, COM ports, and printers
* Audio support
* Transparent clipboard cut and paste between applications running locally and applications running on the MetaFrame or WinFrame server
* Optimized, configurable low-bandwidth connection support
* Direct Dial-In support (does not require RAS)
* Seamless Windows (Win32 Client only)
* RSA RC5 encryption support using Citrix SecureICA Services

Setting Up the ICA Win32 Client
You can use the ICA Win32 Client on a computer running Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows Me, Windows NT, Windows 2000, and Windows XP.
To install the ICA Win32 Client...

1. On your client PC, run the installer ica32.exe, which is in the same folder as this readme file.
2. The installation wizard appears. Follow the directions on your screen.

For more information on the ICA Win32 Client, refer to ICA Client Help in the Citrix ICA Client program group, or use the online Help menu.

O.k. I figured part of the problem out. At my house we only have one IP address which is a pain in the butt. In order to access my MetaFrame web client I have to type the my fathers domain name with the port number EX: www.name:port. The problem with that is dns entries on that server don't point to the citrix server so I just need to figure out how to point dns in the right direction can someone please explain how to do this. Or the kind of records that I may need to add.

BUMP!

C'mon I know someone here knows something about DNS and I don't know what kind of records I would need to add for this. I only know a little about it.

Sorry I'm not trying to sound rude or anything.
