Citrix client slow to launch
- by user706837
Was wondering if anyone else experience Citrix client to launch very slowly.
While I'm a Windows SA by trade, I consider myself Novice+ on Linux, but I doubt thats the problem. This is the simple scenario:
1. Login to Citrix server to work from home
2. Click on the published application; this typically starts the local Citrix client.
3. Citrix client should start and you're off.
Problem is between #2 and #3
I click on the application and 8 out of 9 times there is a 60 second delay and then I get an SSL connection error. I suspect this error is misleading since the connection took too long to open. But I dont know how to prove it (or fix it).
I'm able to successfully manually launch wfcmgr without errors; so this leads me to believe Citrix client is installed correctly. I even leave it running thinking this may help, but I don't see a difference with or without this running first.
The only times I'm able to connect successfully is when the Citrix client starts up a few seconds after clicking on the application.
I've searched online for articles that might help, but tried a number of fixes without much difference. Even tried "ln -sf /dev/urandom /dev/random" as suggested by this article, but no dice:http://forums.citrix.com/message.jspa?messageID=1381276
My System (specs that may be relevant)
Sony VAIO Laptop VGN-NW270F
Linux Mint 11.04
Problem using: FireFox and Chrome
Any help would be appreciated. Just trying to either find an answer or guidance on how to determine why its taking so long to launch the Citrix Client.
Thanks
