uStart the ICA Client on the client device; get an IP address or server name of a Citrix server from an administrator or from the server browsing service provided in ICA Clients; start the ICA Client’s connection wizard, specify the address and configure connection options such as encryption, window size, and color, double-click the connection object; log on to the Citrix server desktop; navigate the desktop for the word processing program’s desktop shortcut, Start menu shortcut, or Program Manager program group. Then, if the user needs access to another application, and the application exists on another Citrix server, the ICA Client user must repeat the process.
uStart Program Neighborhood, perform a single logon that authenticates the user to all published applications in an application set, double-click an icon for the word processing program. Starting additional applications requires simply double-clicking their icons in Program Neighborhood.
Application publishing benefits users of other, non-Program Neighborhood ICA Clients (such as the UNIX, Macintosh, DOS and Web Clients) as well. Although they do not support the complete (server and client-side) administrative configuration of the ICA connection provided by Program Neighborhood, these ICA Clients do support connections to published applications.
In the case of the ICA UNIX, Macintosh, and DOS Clients, client users can benefit from application publishing’s simplified addressing and desktop navigation when they configure connections to published applications using their connection configuration managers.
In the case of the Web Client (available as an Internet Explorer Active-X control, Netscape plug-in, or Java applet), you can create Web access that lets users of client devices running a Web browser and an ICA Web Client click a link in a Web page to start a published application.
7LS To give a broader range of your users the benefits of the new Program Neighborhood features, you can publish the ICA Win32 (Program Neighborhood) Client application on your Citrix servers. Users of the non-Win32 Citrix ICA Clients can then define in their connection managers a single connection to the Program Neighborhood published application. Once they connect to the Program Neighborhood published application, they can launch all other applications published on all the Citrix servers in your farm from a single easy interface.
