Sorry citrix != vnc or for that matter pcanywhere. Citrix is a package
run on top of windows NT to enable you to use thin clients at remote
locations. ie: thin clients. If he wants to run a server under linux I know
of no solution. Wish there was an alternative. :-)
If he is looking for a linux client there is an ica client available at
www.citrix.com/download/unix-downloads.htm
