Re: question about remotely accessing a Citrix VDI?
So FS claims to work on Xen desktop so I’m hopeful and if we figure it out I’ll definitely let you know how we did it.

Hi Tim, Just a thought here for you to put to the people running the AD servers, If your running windows, vpn in if your not already, And if your windows machine is part of the domain your connected to then run up the active directory admin tools Ms have them listed as RSAT install those to yoru machine and then you can work directly on the AD inferstructure of the system with the ad tools on your machine, all works great, -Original Message- From: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com [mailto:macvisionaries@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Tim Kilburn Sent: Wednesday, 1 June 2016 3:27 AM To: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: question about remotely accessing a Citrix VDI?

RE: question about remotely accessing a Citrix VDI?
Hi Tim and others, This is stuff I do both at work and home. For jaws to work in a windows remote situation Jaws has to be firstly installed on the server or machine that you are connecting to remotely. E.g. the server. In the jaws installation settings there is an option for either typical or custom setup. Here the user chooses custom and then in the next screan arrows down once to the remote option and tapping the space bar will give you a number of different settings I always choose to run everything from the local hard drive After that you can carry on and finish the installation of jaws, Then on your own windows environment or machine you have jaws setup and again you will have had to install it with the remote settings installed either server all or client, Once that is installed and your client / local machine has a valid jaws authorisation you can run up the windows remote desktop program RDP and start a connection to the server machine, One of the tabs in the RDP client in windows is to allow you to start up applications on the server machine remotely at log in, here I normally set mine to start jaws on my own servers / machines and not worry about group policies. Once you have logged in to the server machine remotely and with luck jaws is running your using a slightly slower version of windows as you would on your local machine Simple as that really.. that's windows to windows. I've not tried anything else recently in the way of remote tools such as VNC but last time I did try it they didn't work for me The windows rdp tool uses the jaws authorisation key on your local machine to licence the jaws on the remote machine otherwise it wont work for us. I believe the remote session is a form of graphical interface but don't ask me what is different. As for a mac to windows, I've not tried this recently or at least since I think it was Mountaion lion, but the VNC in mac OSX didn't work at all for me, and the mac version of the Microsoft RDC remote desktop connection allowed me to connect to my windows machine and start up jaws, but jaws had no real functionality due to the graphical interface of the remote tool being used, And jaws also wouldn't pick up on the authorisation key dongle I was using via USB As for citrix on the mac to a windows environment I've not tried that but I'm guessing here that it wouldn't be a success for a screan reader user Hope this makes sense to folks and it is of some use.

RE: question about remotely accessing a Citrix VDI?
Hi Scott, Interestingly enough I've just been through a similar situation with my current employer. I know for a fact Jaws will work with citrix in a similar situation to the way jaws works with Remote Desktop on windows computers, Jaws needs to be installed to the citrix server and then you run a remote like session of jaws through the connection to the citrix server, If this is setup correctly then starting jaws at the log in and automatically afterwards should be doable with a Group policy on the windows server your authenticating to. I haven't tried it as their support in NZ is crap, but I believe window eyes has the same type of featurt and should work the same way. Again I've not tried window eyes but jaws I have. Now the thing you didn't want to hear and is still got me looking in to legal action. Citrix now have a system where the desktop being logged in to is a skin windows 7 or 8.1 over a server 2008r2 server environment, I think from memory it's called xenapp.. This is the V D I, The user would log in through a webpage that kicks in to life a citrix receiver application and then through that the user can log on to their virtual windows 7 machine. This is what we currently have at work for some staff and our student managed desktop environment. Now I'm not saying that our techs at work are no good but so far in the 18 months we've had this system, they have not been able to get jaws installed and to work in a full activated mode. They have installed it or published it to the VDI package with other applications and had it work in a state that is not enabled for a terminal session but that lasted about 1 minute before we killed it. I still think it can be done but that our techs didn't have the no how or ability to make it work and their attitude was along the lines of well you’re the only blind person there fore it's not of great importance So all I can say is if you've got good technitians aroud you that will look in to this with the wish to make it happen, then go for it. And Please let me know how you get it working! Otherwise it may not be a solution for you sorry to say, I so hope I'm wrong Good luck and I hope you can get this to work I really do. Good luckl.

Re: question about remotely accessing a Citrix VDI?
Citrix has both a desktop and zen application mode. In either case you need to run jaws or Windows eyes both locally and remotely for best results. Feel free to contact me for more details.

Re: question about remotely accessing a Citrix VDI?
Mary, major appreciation for that pointer. I do have office and an office 365 account so I’ll check that out. SO I’m encouraged by the fact the thing I need support for is mentioned by name on the window eyes home page front page. I figure or at least I’m hopeful that’s a good sign. I feel a sales call to the fine folks there coming on. I wrote to Freedom Scientific last week with my questions but no response yet.

Re: question about remotely accessing a Citrix VDI?
Scott, If you have office for windows, you can get window eyes free. No dollars. Also, I am not sure about Citrix and how much it might change. I remember years ago when window eyes started supporting it. That was a long time ago, and since I know nothing about Citrix and the changes that have happened in window eyes, I have no clue if the support is still good. Good luck.

Re: question about remotely accessing a Citrix VDI?
