Appendix A
Configuring ICA Session Services
Before
you use the information in this section to configure your ICA session services, be
sure you have read "Configuring Session Services."
ICA session services can be made available on the network using either Windows 2003/
2008 Server with Terminal Services and one of the following installed:
•
Citrix MetaFrame XP
•
Citrix Presentation Server
Tip
If PNAgent/PNLite-published application services are to be made available to
the thin clients, refer to "PNAgent/PNLite Installation Guidelines" when
installing Citrix MetaFrame XP.
When using the instructions accompanying these products to install them and make
sessions and applications available to the thin clients sharing the server environment, be
aware of the following:
•
If a Windows 2003/2008 Server is used, a Terminal Services Client Access License
(TSCAL) server must also reside somewhere accessible on the network. The server
will grant a temporary (120-day) license on an individual device basis. Beyond the
temporary (120-day) license, you must purchase TSCALs and install them on the
TSCAL server (you will not be able to make a connection without a temporary or
permanent license).
•
It is recommended that any ICA connection which traverses a Dial-up or WAN
connection have
Lowband=yes
set in the INI files or the
Optimize for low speed link
option selected in the
Connection Settings (ICA)
dialog box.
•
If an ICA connection is created using the Connect Manager and the
Host Names
or
Application Name
text box is left blank, a message appears prompting the user to
enter the IP Address or Server Name of the ICA server to which to connect.
•
An audio input port is available (Audio can be recorded).
PNAgent/PNLite Installation Guidelines
PNAgent/PNLite is a component of the Citrix XML publishing service. PNAgent/PNLite is
an ICA connection mode that enables the thin client to connect to applications available
(published) on an ICA server without having to configure connections for individual
published applications.
Use the following guidelines during installation:
•
MetaFrame XP
- Installing MetaFrame XP supports XML publishing services. During
installation, a series of prompts appear for you to follow. When you are prompted to
install the XML Publishing Service, be aware that clicking
Yes
to this option allows you
to change the default port (80) used by the service.
•
Citrix Presentation Server
- Installing Citrix Presentation Server supports XML
publishing services. During installation, a series of prompts appear for you to follow.
The port to be used for XML publishing services must be known for making appropriate
PNAgent/PNLite server location entries required by the operating mode (for related
information, refer to "Configuring DHCP (DHCP Options)," the
Users Guide: Wyse
ThinOS
TM
(for locally configuring the thin client using the
Network Setup
dialog box), and
the
Reference Guide: Wyse ThinOS
TM
INI Files
). The thin client uses port 80 as the
default port, but if a port other than 80 is used, the port number must be specified explicitly
with the PNAgent/PNLite server location in the form
IP:port or name:port
, where
:port
is
optional.
