I've used Citrix on FreeBSD before and found that if you use the Linux client with linux_base installed, it works well. If you can acutally get a Citrix desktop, then you can run windows apps from there as well. For network shares you need to install Samba. I use Konqueror as the browser. It comes with KDE, if you choose to use that desktop environment. Good luck! --Tim --- Totally Jayyness <Jayyness@mindspring.com> wrote: > At work, we have lots of M$ Servers that are running > either Citrix or > Terminal Services and so we can manage them from the > command center without > actually having to go out to each and every server > to check up on it and do > maintenance on them. > > I am building a FreeBSD Desktop computer for the > first time.
