I assume you're talking about the ICA secureclient. I have not used it, but
according to Citrix it does slightly degrade performance (vs. normal ICA).
However, I can't see it being a serious degradation. For the PIX setup, the
Citrix/ICA protocol works like most (e.g. ftp). It listens on one default
static port and establishes a session on another from a range of available
ports. As for a 56k connection, this shouldn't be a problem. I have a client
whose technicians use Citrx to run a windows based client/server app from
the field. They carry laptops and connect to a frame relay network via
wireless modem. The wireless connections operate at 14k and the base host
connects via a 56k lease line on a Cisco 1600. They're very happy with the
performance.

Subject: Off Topic: Citrix and PIX via Secureclient?
Assuming that anyone has done so (I seem to recall it being mentioned as
possible a while back), how easy is this to setup? Just open the approriate
ports on the PIX and slight config on the citrix box? I'm also curious
about the performance of the secure citrix clients over the net (like on a
56k connection).
TIA for any comments.
