Reused Computers

Hi All,

I have just setup a VDI In A Box test machine and have it running nicely with clients connecting from browsers, I now want to test it on an old computer, e.g. I want an operating system that will boot straight into the Citrix machines, like a real thin client.

Does anyone know anything that will help me active this?

Thanks.

At the place i did some contract work they used Windows ThinPc with the Citrix lockdown tool. You just change the Shell to the custom Citrix one.
