These are the directories, the devices are mounted to by default at bootup (e. g. /autofs/floppy for a build-in Floppy Disk Drive). Finally specify the access rights for the mapping. You can choose to grant "Read Access" "Write access" or to "Ask User" for each map, ping separately. ("Ask User" will prompt for read/write access on first access per ICA session. ) Note: The same drive mappings and access settings will apply to all ICA connections. 54 Setup (Global Settings) 5. 8. 5 COM Ports You can perform bi-directional mapping between serial devices that are attached to the Thin Client (e. g. scanners, serial printers, . . . ) and the Citrix Server`s COM ports. This enables programs running on the server to exchange data with the local devices. · COM Port Devices Select the COM port your device is attached to from this drop-down box: /dev/ttyS0 stands for the local COM1 and /dev/ttyS1 stands for the local COM2. ttyS3 and ttyS4 are for potential addon cards plugged in the PCI/ISA slot, e. g. internal modem (MAXDATA FALCON 300 L only). Your selection will be mapped to the virtual COM1, a second one will become virtual COM2 and so on. Note: The behaviour details of the local COM port has to be configured in "Devices" (see 5. 10. 1). The configuration and its assignment on server side has to be done within Metaframe MAXDATA FALCON 200 L / 300 L 55 5. 8. 6 Printer In this tab, you configure the printer for ICA sessions. (For general printer configuration, see section 5. 11) · Enable Client Printer Mapping This feature makes the locally attached printer of the Thin Client available within your ICA sessions (assuming that it`s not disabled from server side). Because the Thin Client will only spool the incoming print jobs, you have to install the printer on the server. This is done in the familiar way ("Start" -> "Settings" -> "Printer" and so on. . . ). The only thing you have to care of is that you have to be logged in from the terminal the printer is connected to as Administrator. · Enable Printer Autocreation Metaframe XP on Windows Servers provides the feature to automatically createthe printers when connecting to the server. To use this function, the Thin Client has to provide information about the chosen local printer (see 5. 10. 1) and the Microsoft Windows printer driver name for it. The default value for the driver name here is "Citrix PCL4 Universal Driver", because that is working fine for most printers and is usually installed on the Metaframe Server anyway. Note: Verify the configuration of the attached printer itself first (see 5. 11. 1)! 56 Setup (Global Settings) 5. 8. 7 Firewall This "Firewall" page allows you to configure ICA connections through a firewall or a SOCKS proxy server. (Firewalls and SOCKS proxy servers are used on networks to improve security. ) · Use Alternate Address If you are using ICA sessions to connect to a specific Citrix server behind a firewall, you have to activate this option. The Citrix server (usually) has a different IP in the local network than from the outside world. [. . . ] Be sure the chosen user has an user account on your remote host. · Remote Host In this field you have to enter the name or the IP address of the remote host from which the remote application will be started. · Commandline In this field you can specify the name of the application program you want to start. · Display This drop-down list allows you to choose between different forms of syntax for the "display" option that depends on the application type you want to start.
