I have the Citrix client partially working but I have two issues I wanted some help with. Just a note I am only able to call the wfica directly to launch Citrix. I am unable to use the wfmgr application. I have been able to bring a remote desktop up and it works well with 640x480 desktop.

1. I am unsure how to mimic a right click from the maemo side to the citrix client.

2. Currently I have to logon to Web Interface and download the application ica file. I then have to call the ICA file from the command line. I am unsure how to register the ICA extension with the maemo or Fennec browser. I am not sure how to find the .mailcap file or where the MIME file type is located.

From the Citrix documentation they talk about the following method.

If you need to set up .mailcap and MIME files for Firefox, Mozilla, or Netscape
manually, use the following file modifications so that .ica files start up the client
executable, wfica. To use other browsers, you need to modify the browser
configuration accordingly.
1. For the .mailcap file modification, in $HOME, create or modify the
.mailcap file and add the line:
• For Version 6.0 and Version 6.3 clients:
application/x-ica; /usr/lib/ICAClient/wfica -file %s; xmozilla-
flags=plugin:Citrix ICA
The %s indicates that the full file name of the .ica file is passed to the
application. The additional text in the .mailcap file is to make use of
the Netscape plug-in.
• For Version 8.x and later clients:
application/x-ica; /usr/lib/ICAClient/wfica.sh %s;
x-mozilla-flags=plugin:Citrix ICA
2. The MIME file modification is:
In $HOME, create or modify the .mime.types file and add the line:
application/x-ica ica

Just noticed that citrix published some new software for the linux receiver. Seems to be optimized for armel and there is even a .deb file. Does not install natively but I will play around a bit. Of course I am not the best linux complier in the world so if anyone is free to help...

The method above to associate the mime type works with firefox mobile.
However now when an ica application is launched i get a translucient window and i'm unable to do anything with it. The same happens when i launch the .ica file from command line...
Maybe someone can package the client and the appropriate config+deps into a nice package...

Just want to also add that it works in easy debian just fine, so i think i'm missing some lib or have a wrong version...

Have you tried the steps in this thread? It worked for me using MicroB to access my RAS site.

I did exactly as recommended in that thread, followed every step properly - and got the result that vartanov described. I can see the citrix screen and when I open an application one or more new windows appear with the expected title (cerresponding to the application) but all windows are empty or black. MicroB and Firefox behave equal in that respect. Under Easy Debian everything is fine.

Any ideas?

Same here.. just a black blank screen, then if I context switch
to another web page, and back, the whole thing just locks up.

Trying to access Outlook Web Access over an SSL'ed / VPN'ed
connection.

If 'provisioning' was supported in the MfE I wouldn't be having to geek around with any of this ... arrrrrrhghhhh!
