One nice feature is that you can export the file to a PDF or Word document if you are logged into your MyCitrix account. Try it out and let me know what you think...

To start with, here is a short demo video of how to install AutoCAD Map3D 2009 on XenApp I created.

Discover more Citrix related videos at the Citrix utipu video site

Note that AutoCAD Map3D 2009 requires you to use network based license which is not default option. If you don't read the installation guide carefully, you can mistakenly take the default option.  If the wrong model (standalone license) is chosen, at most two users can connect concurrently. And there is no easy way to change the license model after installation is completed. Initially I made the mistake of choosing the default option and had to re-install .

In the last part of Choosing an Automated Deployment Strategy for XenApp I will discuss installing XenApp via images.

Part 3 of Choosing an Automated Deployment Strategy for XenApp gives an overview of deploying XenApp via Active Directory.

In the next few days at Shannon Ma VirtualizedI'll be blogging about the different ways you can install XenApp in an automated fashion. Part 1 is online, Part 2 will be coming tomorrow, and the whole series will be online by Wednesday. Check it out and if you have any questions or feedback don't hesitate to drop me a comment.

If you are interested in running ICA client on Linux, I've created two short videos showing the step by step instructions. Unlike windows ICA client, installing Linux version of ICA client requires more steps although it is relatively straight forward after you watch the video I hope. I used Ubuntu Linux as an example. Other Linux distributions may work slightly differently.

Here is my earlier blog that is related to installing ICA client on Ubuntu. 

I hope you find the videos useful. Love to hear your feedbacks. For example, your experience with other Linux distributions will be interesting.

Acknowledgment:

I found many articles on the Internet about installing ICA client on Linux. Here are some good examples I referenced
