For all XenApp admins and consultants out there Project Avalon will bring a big change as we are used to having XenApp servers running on the (what seemed to be) everlasting Citrix Independent Management Architecture and we’re heading to Citrix FlexCast Management Architecture (already included in XenDesktop at this moment) and will be included in the Citrix Excalibur Architecture.

Citrix NetScaler Access Gateway What’s the real amount of ICA proxy users you can handle?
Yesterday Barry Schiffer posted a new blog titled Citrix NetScaler Access Gateway What’s the real amount of ICA proxy users you can handle? which is a result of conversations he had with a couple of great minds of this industry and basically he’s doing some research on how many users your remote access device can handle and what kind of certificate you’re using.

Opening MMS via a URL in Windows Media Player on Citrix XenApp 6.5
I was configuring a Citrix XenApp 6.5 farm and we created some instruction video’s for the users to get used to the new interface and structure, we offered those video’s (*.wmv) via a URL on a streaming server via MMS. So far so good but when clicking on the button linking to the wmv’s files the wmv’s wouldn’t start. Apparently this is a common problem because Citrix released a kb article on it: Citrix XenApp 6 is Unable to Open MMS Files
Citrix Single Sign-On experienced an error during initialization
At one of my projects I was configuring Citrix Single sign-on and the config and install went pretty smooth, the Citrix XenApp farm was configured with Citrix Single sign-on within a couple of hours but we had to install the client on the desktops and laptops too.
Citrix NetScaler, how to configure ICA proxy for mobile devices and SSL VPN for laptops
In my recent blogpost on “NetScaler, WI and the Citrix Receiver 5.7.. “The gateway settings are incorrect” you could read how I configured the Citrix NetScaler for mobile devices (ICA Proxy) and laptops (SSL VPN). During the project new requirements came up and I had to do an End Point Analysis on the laptop to make sure that they were only allowed to do SSL VPN when the machine was domain joined to the customer domain.

NetScaler, WI and the Citrix Receiver 5.7.. “The gateway settings are incorrect”
For one of my projects I was configuring a NetScaler HA Pair and after configuring the SSL VPN for laptops I wanted to configure a session profile to reroute mobile users (iOS devices running the Citrix Receiver 5.7) based on their User-Agent in the HTTP Header to a ICA Proxy enabled WI Services site. The SSL VPN was working including 2fact auth and SSO so I knew the start was good 😉
