You originally said: " the *NIX ICA client hasn't been substantially updated in 10 years or more and might cause a problem in your environment "
But that is not true as both the Linux and Unix Citrix ICA clients have been updated in 2010. I think what you meant to say (or should have said) is the Thin Client's vendor has not updated their *NIX ICA client that is embedded in the Thin Client. I have a Wyse S90 WinTerm that has a very old Window's ICA Client and Wyse has no plans to upgrade/update it. Whose fault is it the ICA client isn't upgraded/updated - Wyse or Citrix? I know very little about Linux, don't care too, don't want too and hopefully will never need too (aside from the very little I need for XenServer).
