Server Based Computing wordt tegenwoordig weer populairder voor bedrijfsomgevingen. Het centraal draaien van applicaties die via een remote-verbinding op de client worden getoond zodat al het rekenwerk op de server wordt uitgevoerd en alleen de beelden worden doorgestuurd. Citrix is één van de meest bekende SBC-pakketen naast onder andere MS Terminal Server. Citrix Systems heeft niet lang geleden een nieuwe versie uitgegeven van hun Citrix ICA Client voor het Mac OS X-platform. Het versienummer is aangekomen 7.00.406 en bevat de volgende lijst met veranderingen voor versie 7.x:
New Features Introduced in this Release:Features Enhanced in this Release:
- Automatic reconnection.
If the client disconnects from a server unexpectedly, it attempts to reconnect automatically. This feature is available only when connecting to computers running MetaFrame Presentation Server for Windows and not computers running MetaFrame Presentation Server for UNIX. See “Reconnecting to Servers after a Disconnection” on page 41 for more information.- Support for high resolution and color printing.
A printer driver specifically for high resolution and color printing is available when printing from published applications. See “Printing” on page 40.- Support for smart cards.
You can use smart cards to provide authenticating credentials when logging on to a server. See page 25 for more information about using smart cards with the client. This feature is available only when connecting to computers running MetaFrame Presentation Server for Windows and not computers running MetaFrame Presentation Server for UNIX. You may also need to install proprietary software to use smart card readers.- SpeedScreen browser acceleration.
SpeedScreen browser acceleration, available to users running Internet Explorer 5.5 or 6.0 within a session, increases the rate at which images are downloaded and displayed. SpeedScreen browser acceleration must be enabled on the server to be available to the client—it does not work when running Internet Explorer locally. When enabled, SpeedScreen browser acceleration operates automatically; you do not need to configure the client.- Dock and menu bar auto-hide.
When a session is running in full screen mode, you can keep the menu bar and Dock out of the way and only show them when you move your mouse to the top of the screen or whichever edge the Dock is located. See “Showing and Hiding the Menu Bar and Dock” on page 44 for more information.- Recent items option.
To enable users to find connection files more easily, a list of recently used items is available in both the client and ICA Client Editor File menus.
- Improved support for Web Interface file settings.
Connection files from the Web Interface (named Launch.asp, Launch 1.asp, and Launch 2.asp for example) no longer occupy the Macintosh desktop, freeing up space for the user. In addition, you can now specify session dimensions in terms of available screen size (screen percent setting) rather than as a fixed size.- Improved drive mapping.
File names are no longer limited to 31 characters but can now contain up to 255 characters, which means that you can map more complex file paths. The total path length from server name to file name cannot be greater than 256 characters, and the combined Macintosh path and server path cannot be more than 512 characters.- UNIX file permissions.
UNIX file permissions are now supported. Files locked using UNIX permissions show as locked within a session, regardless of the Macintosh locked flag.
