Hi.

I just use the 'Use alternate address for firewall connection' in the Citrix
client and point it at the server's externally visible address (as well as
using the ALTADDR command on the server.) Works fine, enumerates published
applications no problem.

It's probably worth mentioning that MetaFrame 1.8 Feature Release 1 includes
an option to use TCP for ICA browsing. I think the public release date is
early September.

Also, you can specify the alternate address on a per *custom connection* by
manually editing APPSRV.INI although I just noticed the V6.00.910 client
supports this setting via the GUI (yay).

Cheers,
Dale
PS: I've never had to use 'ip helper-address x.x.x.x' and 'ip
forward-protocol udp' to make this work.
