A step by step “How to install Citrix 9 under Ubuntu Edgy Eft 6.10“.

Citrix

  • First download Citrix 9.0 client for Linux (in RPM version) here
  • Install dependecies libraries

    • $sudo apt-get install libxaw6 libmotif3

  • Convert .rpm to .deb using alien command

    • user1@planetmy:~$sudo apt-get install alien

    user1@planetmy:~$sudo alien ICAClient-9.0-1.i386.rpm

  • Install newly created icaclient_9.0-2_i386.deb file

    • user1@planetmy:~$sudo dpkg -i icaclient_9.0-2_i386.deb

  • Copy Citrix over plugin for Firefox/Mozilla

    • user1@planetmy:~$sudo ln -s /usr/lib/ICAClient/npica.so
    /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/npica.so

    user1@planetmy:~$sudo ln -s /usr/lib/ICAClient/npica.so
    /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/plugins/npica.so

  • You may have to do the following if using older Citrix Server
  • Configure [tag]ICAClient[/tag]

    • user1@planetmy:~$sudo /usr/lib/ICAClient/wfcmgr -icaroot
    /usr/lib/ICAClient

  • Goto the Tools menu and choose settings

    • Citrix

  • Select Server Location from the selection bar
  • Goto Network Protocol selection bar and change it to TCP/IP and click the Apply button.
  • Remember change .ICAClient permission before launch any Citrix ICA Client

    • user1@planetmy:~$sudo chown -R user1.user1
    /home/user1/.ICAClient/

By the way, I still have problem using OpenSUSE 10.2 64 bit with Citrix ICA Client. The error messages is: Failed Dependency: libXm.so.3 is needed by package ICA Client.

    Hi Hsuanyeh Chang, I have no problem with Citrix version 9 or version 10(tested today) in my Ubuntu 6.10 box.

    Hi, I’ve successfully installed Citrix 10.0 to my ubuntu 6.10 edgy box. But the problem is, my Firefox could not start the ICAClient as expected. I believe there must be some plug-in problems. Can you advise? Thanks.

    Hsuanyeh, please type “xset fp rehash” before start any Citrix application. You may refer to http://support.citrix.com/forums/thread.jspa?forumID=16&threadID=86630
