.Net over Citrix

[CraiginSA]

Hi

Anyone with experience of deploying VB.net business applications in a
Citrix Environment.

Specifically want to know about arcitecture...

Client wants Citrix Thin Client>Citrix Server Farm>IIS
Server>ASP Server/.net>SQL 2000 back end. :shock:

Any comments,reference sites or comments appreciated.

HI Craigin,

Client wants Citrix Thin Client>Citrix Server Farm>IIS
Server>ASP Server/.net>SQL 2000 back end. :shock:

What should the windowforms application do with the IIS server without using
a webservice?

Or what should the clientside browser application do with the Thin Client.

I can think about the Internet Explorer which is working in Citrix which
gets IIS Server pages which gets data from an SQL server. (However than is
Citrix not your problem in my idea).

Hi Craigin

I have a client using a Ctrix cluster of 3 servers running Metaframe/Win2k
My application is a client/server system based on WebServices with IIS 5.0
The WebService accesses an Oracle database using ADO.NET and Oracle client software
The database iself is hosted on an UNIX server.
I have configered the clients to access the WebService on localhost to avoid dependence of a special server

Currently .NET 1.0 SP2 is installed
The system is running for about 2 years and heavily used, everything works fine

Updates or Windows Service packs are crtitical (must have a OK by Citrix!), but this is not a .NET issue

Hope this helps a little
Wolfgan
