[gentoo-user] Citrix client connection problem

Hi All,

I am trying to connect to my work's T-Snap citrix desktop.  I have installed  
net-misc/icaclient-10.6-r3 but when I click on the remote desktop I get this 
error:
===========================================
"Client Error

No connection to ";40;STAEXXXXXXXXXXXX;XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX"
Invalid server browser command header received."
===========================================
(where XXXX are random characters)

Looking at the launcher.ica file that the browser downloads I can see that the 
domain is defined as:
===========================================
[T-SNAP Desktop]
Address=;40;STAEXXXXXXXXXXXX;XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
AudioBandwidthLimit=2
AutologonAllowed=ON
BrowserProtocol=HTTPonTCP
CGPSecurityTicket=On
ClearPassword=XXXXXXXXXXX
===========================================

I am assuming here that the client is trying to use the hashed server address 
and the browser cannot resolve this.  As far as I understand this solution 
works with guess what: MSWindows (my work is a Microsoft shop) and AppleMac.  
Any ideas what it might take to get it going under Gentoo?

Have you tried downloading the ica client from Citrix and installing it
to your home directory and trying it?  I didn't even know they put it in
portage, I've always had to go to their website.

Also, what browser are you using (or are you going straight from the
desktop)?

When you use portage it shows the F flag.  During emerge it advises you to 
manually download the .rpm package from the Citrix website and save it 
manually in portage/distfiles before continuing with the emerge.  I tried 
both Firefox and Opera.  How could I try it straight from the desktop?

I think I've gone a bit further with this problem.  When at work (behind the 
firewall) I can connect on the server and the t-snap desktop comes up fine 
using the Citrix client plugin.  However, from home I still cannot launch the 
t-snap desktop.  When the Citrix client fires up it tries to connect and 
eventually I get this error:
====================================
There is no route from the Citrix SSL Relay to the specified subnet address 
(SSL error 37).
====================================

Any clue what this is all about?
