Citrix is always recommended by the software resellers and developers
because of the profit$. I have had plenty of arguments with the Citrix
indoctrinated techs and sales personnel who have never really investigated
what terminal services will do. Unless you need to support Macintosh, or
other non MS clients, RDP is probably as efficient as ICA.
The efficiency of the applications you run are probably more important.

My first question is how efficient is MS's RDP technology when compared to
Citrix's ICA technology? We want to connect around 60 users to a server
over a frame relay running a product called Syteline. Citrix is recommended
but we are trying to determine if we can use W2K as a replacement and not
lose too much.

Yes. You can replace citrix to some extent with any version of Win2k
server. you do not need advanced or datacenter.
What did you have in mind?

Does anyone have extensive knowledge regarding the features of Advanced
Server / Datacenter Server and if it can be used as a less expensive
replacement (or close to a replacement) for Citrix Metaframe? Is this a
viable option? Has anyone tried it?
Thanks,
Tim
