Re: Citrix ICA client on potato anybody?

You may just need to get libc5 from oldlibs (I think). I'm running the
ICA client on a bleading-edge potato box at work, and I haven't had any
problems with it.
One thing you might like to look into though. I believe Citrix has
something that makes Terminal Server X compatible. We actually use NCD
X-Terms at work to connect to the NT Terminal Server. I have personally
found that connecting to Terminal Server using Xnest is actually a
little smoother and faster than using the ICA client. It doesn't seem
to do cut & paste b/w the Terminal Server session and X like ICA does,
but it feels a little faster to me (and I can use the same program to
connect to out Sun boxen).
In a world where it can be hard to escape MicroSoft, being able to use
my linux box and only connect to an NT Terminal server, from linux, when
absolutely necessary, is an æcceptable existance. :)
HTH,
