ASA 5510 Citrix ICA plugin acts like remote desktop to Citrix server

Erik Ingeberg · ‎08-25-2008

I am trying to set up a webvpn solution where the Citrix ICA Java plugin gives Citrix access to users.

When I log in to the SSL VPN portal and click the link that contains ica://ipofserver/?DesiredColor=4&DesiredHRes=1024&DesiredVRes=768 the Citrix Java client starts and connects to the Citrix server. Then I am presented with the Window Server 2003 login page of that Citrix server. Only administrator login is then allowed.

Instead of using the Citrix plugin, I've had to use a http:// link to the Citrix webinterface, but that means one additional login for the users.

I've been having a hard time finding complete instructions on how to enable the Citrix Java plugin correctly. What I want is for users to log in to the SSL VPN portal, then click on the Citrix link to access their Citrix desktop.
