Citrix Access Essentials
We are thinking of buying and installing Citrix Access Essentials for 20 light users. It seems to be a good "lite" product, bundled with Terminal Services licenses. One consultant has suggested a HPDL360 G4P, with extra RAM *to 4GB), extra processor and RAID1, SCSI. Any users of this product out there. Suggestions/pitfalls..... gracias

Re: Citrix Access Essentials
I think for 20 light users DL360 G4 with described configuration will be enough, but it depends on kind of applications you run.

Regarding "It seems to be a good "lite" product, bundled with Terminal Services licenses" - check if windows 2003 TS is not enough for your needs.

Re: Citrix Access Essentials
20 concurrent users on a dual dl360g4 and 4gig is pushing things just a little bit for either Terminal Services or Citrix.
The last time I worked with a production Citrix setup (pushing just MS-Office apps only, not a full desktop, to a client web browser), a usable server setup required about 1/4 of a P3/500 CPU and 100Meg RAM on the server.
New Market CBT (http://64.233.179.104/search?q=cache:4xKlo4EEsBMJ:www.newmarketinc.com/resources/Delphi_TSServer_Requirements.pdf+citrix+server+system+requirements&hl=en&gl=us&ct=clnk&cd=6) actually calls for a P3/800, 2Gig, and 18Gig duplexed storage for 21-40 users. I don't know what New Market's CBTs are like, but I tried running a full CBT (test, audio, video, printer redirection, everything) from a setup similar to this using Windows Terminal Services as a demonstration, and it ran full-out with just 3 users.
What is Citrix recommending for your apps and user load? What apps do you intend on sending over?
