System information
Using a Network Station to Access Mail
249
The IBM Network Station can use either the protocol called Independent
Computing Architecture (ICA) or X11 to connect into WTSE. These protocols
are not provided by WTSE.
The ICA functionality provided by Citrix’s ICA protocol is still available but
requires the installation of Citrix’s MetaFrame product in addition to WTSE.
If the X11 functionality is also desired, then NCD’s Unix Integration Services
are required, in addition to MetaFrame.
Additional details on Citrix MetaFrame and NCD’s UNIX Integration Service
can be found respectively on the Web at: www.citrix.com and www.ncd.com
8.4.5 Connecting IBM Network Station to Windows Terminal Server
The IBM Network Station supports either the ICA protocol, using a native ICA
client running on the IBM Network Station (new with release 3 of the Network
Station Manager) or the X11 protocol using the native X-server functionality
as in previous releases. This section only describes connectivity to a
Windows Terminal Server using ICA protocol that is provided by Citrix
MetaFrame.
As mentioned previously, IBM Network Station now includes a local client
called ICACLNT which uses ICA protocol to connect to a server running
Terminal Server Edition and Citrix MetaFrame.
To setup the ICA client on your Network Station, sign on to the IBM Network
Station Manager to access the Startup tasks. Then, define a local program
Menu item as shown in Figure 148 on page 250.
This section does not cover Windows NT 4.0, Terminal Server Edition and
Citrix MetaFrame Installation. For more detail about how to install this
software, refer to

Windows NT
