Who Should Use this Guide

This guide is for system administrators responsible for installing, configuring,
deploying, and maintaining the Client for Macintosh. The guide assumes
knowledge of:
• Citrix Presentation Server
• The machine running Presentation Server to which the client connects
• The operating system on the client device (Mac OS X)
• Installation, operation, and maintenance of network and asynchronous
communication hardware, including serial ports, modems, and device
adapters
To make it easier to read, all the procedures in this guide refer to “you.” In some
circumstances “you” refers to the administrator of the client, in others to the user
of the client, and sometimes to both. The context indicates whether a procedure is
primarily an administrator or user activity.
