Remoting into Citrix Thin Clients Desktops
Folks, I know we've been here before but I can't' remember without trowling through archives and having been in here now 3 months I'm allot more clued in on our infrastructure. if there was a solution offered. Is it possible using JFW and it's Remote licence to take control of a users Desktop through the above setup? This isn't for Admin tasks as I believe I can use the console. If this is possible what would be the setup? I'm not asking for a complete hand-holding just a couple of bullet points, you need this on that, and that on the other. How about if we have a couple of hops between the Server Citrix is installed on to the thin clients? I presume this would hamper if not block use with a Screen Reader? Finally, is JFW's Remote lience designed to be used by an admin, is is it meant for an end-user who has to use a thin client as part of their job? Thanks, Barry. Thanks, Barry.

Short answer, no. Unless a screen reader is on both the local and remote machine, remote stuff just doesn't work. The acception is Serotek's solution, but I think they're the only company that's even made an attempt at remote access without a screen reader on the remote machine.

Would teamviewer not be able to help in that respect?

Unless a screen reader is on both the local and remote machine, remote stuff just doesn't work. The acception is Serotek's solution, but I think they're the only company that's even made an attempt at remote access without a screen reader on the remote machine.

Hi Mark, That would be great, thanks very much. I don't think it will work for the thin clients but it might prove a valuable alternative to Serotek's product.
