Citrix client on EeePC with Xandros Linux

First of all, contrary to other postings, you do not have to become "root" to install Citrix client. Especially on EeePC/Xandros, where (although possible) you would not expect a multitude of different user accounts.

The steps for installing Citrix on EeePC are not that different from any other distribution:

1. Point the browser at: http://www.citrix.com/English/SS/downloads/details.asp?downloadID=3323&productID=-1#top
and download Linux ICA Client:
Version 10.6 English 6/28/07 1.8 mb .tar.gz (x86 client - requires OpenMotif 2.2.x).

In the Firefox download dialog, choose to Save to Disk. On the EeePC/Xandros, the default location for Firefox downloads is /home/user .

2. Press CTRL-ALT-T to gain access to the command line.

3. Setup the folder for the ICA client

/home/user> mkdir citrix

/home/user> mv en.linuxx86.tar.gz citrix

/home/user> cd citrix


4. Unpack the tarball file:

/home/user/citrix> tar zxvf en.linuxx86.tar.gz

./

./PkgId

...


5. Run the install script:

/home/user/citrix> ./setupwfc

Follow the instructions: choose Install client and the default directory (ICAClient).
Let the installation script create the ICAClient directory

6. Install the certificate
If you look at my earlier posting: "Ubuntu on XPS M1330 - Installing Citrix" (Monday, April 14, 2008), you will see the content of the certificate file.
Cut and paste it into a plain text file.
The file name for the certificate should be:
/home/user/ICAClient/linuxx86/keystore/cacerts/UTN-USERFirst-Hardware.crt
