I also have had success installing the Citrix ICA client as a local app.
Simply copy all of the files over into /ltsroot/usr/local/ica.  It works
great!  Even has sound.  This means you can completely skip the xdm login.
But I haven't been able to make it launch automatically when the terminal
boots.  I keep getting an error when I run it from a script and I have to
manually use su to switch to a real user (the terminals come up locally as
root).  Hmmm.  I wonder if that is because it needs access to the users home
directory and root is read only?  Could be.  My current setup has the
terminal run a local fvwm2 window manager and launches an initial xterm
automatically on boot.  The xterm comes up as root and I have to do an su to
switch to a real user and then launch /usr/local/ica/wfica and then I get
the familiar NT login.  I would like to see what you did in order to make it
pop up full screen automatically on boot, if possible.  I would like to see
what you did in /ltsroot/etc/inittab and the startup script you use.  I
would be happy to share any information on what I have done, in exchange.

Best Regards,

Hans

Subject: Re: [Ltsp-discuss] Citrix ICA local app package


I have pretty much completed the a Citrix client using LTSP 2.0.9 with the 
following features.
* Starts the ICA client as a full screen application on the client (ie no X 
window manager) from a new run level (6) so the Citrix login occurs, not the
XDM
* Uses the local client CD & floppy for the Citrix user
* Uses a hard disk for swap if available

My next step is to make the Citrix client a true LTSP local app as I have a 
mixed LTSP environment with some clients as Windows Terminal Server clients
only 
and some as X Terminals which must have the capability of running the ICA
client 
locally.

If there is any interest in these things I can make them available.

Are there any specific
