the demo won't work through your firewall unless the firewall explicitly allows the ica protocol to pass. i forget the port number ica uses.

don't be misled into thinking that the firewall issue constitutes a problem with citrix technology. that's what firewalls are for. passing ica is a sysadmin/security issue. the firewall will pass anything you like.

i recently tried the demo via my 28.8kbps modem. i used word and excel. it worked flawlessly. the performance was much better than rdp - which i use regularly from the same box over the same modem.

My guess is that the problem is that the demo (as written) doesn't work through a firewall
