I have the v11 client here, but if you could find the application that was written by a Citrix staff member to replace the full PN client, that would be great. It would be nice to have my custom ICA files for testing and still be able to use the funky new Desktop Viewer. Now to try and convince our thin client manufacturer to update their support for the v12 online plugin :-) Thanks, JRR On 24 March 2010 12:15, Webster <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: What is called the "full" Program Neighborhood, as opposed to the Program Neighborhood Agent, was dropped as of client version 11.1. PNAgent has also been renamed. Citrix NEVER intended the full PN client to be used the way that many people use it. It was designed for admins to use for troubleshooting Citrix farm issues. As I am sure you are aware, updating changes or additions to the full PN client is a complete PITA. Trying to make a change or changes or deletions or additions to the INI file for 1000s of network clients is not for the faint of heart. This is one of the leading causes of calls to Citrix support. Which is why Citrix removed it. Why load up support staff with extra work because admins are using a product in a way it was not intended. If you listen to Citrix marketing, the preferred client access methods are: Streaming Online Offline The preferred interface for all of this is the Web Interface - NOT - the full PN client. A Citrix employee has written a replacement for the full PN Client. I can find that for you if you can't. I can also provide the 11.0 client I provided to MBS if you like. http://support.citrix.com/article/CTX121727 Webster From: James Rankin [mailto:[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>] Subject: Citrix client I know it just came out yesterday, but has anyone else installed the latest (v12) of the Citrix Program Neighborhood agent (or Online Plugin as it is now called) and found that it has removed the old Program Neighborhood and all of their custom ICA connections? And does anyone know how it might be retrieved? -- "On two occasions...I have been asked, 'Pray, Mr Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?'
