Citrix platform now supported

Notes 8.5 supports installation and use on Citrix®. See release notes or tech notes for system requirements

and operating system version support. This capability was initially made available in release 8.0.1.

Linux platform now available in RPM format

Notes 8.5 installation on Linux is available as an RPM or DEB install kit. The ISMP install kit is no longer

available.

RPM is used by SuSe and RedHat and DEB is used by Ubuntu Linux.

Notes Basic AllClient kit no longer available

The Notes basic configuration Allclient install kit is no longer available. However, the Notes-only basic

configuration install kit remains available. Customers looking to install or upgrade to the Domino Designer

8.5 or Domino Administrator 8.5 clients must use the Notes standard configuration Allclient install kit. This is

applicable to the Windows client platform as there is no Notes basic configuration Allclient install kit for the

Mac OS or Linux platforms.
