Connecting to a Citrix farm

Users can connect to sessions running on a Citrix back-end. Once the connection has been made, the user can access published desktops and applications.

Connecting a device to a Citrix back-end is performed by one of the following applications:

• by a StoreFront application to a StoreFront server
• by the Citrix Self-Service user interface to a StoreFront server
• via a browser to a StoreFront server or Web Interface server, see Browser session to access published resources

Requirements

• The eLux package Citrix Workspace-App for Linux must be installed on the devices.
• To connect via HTTPS, for the application types Storefront, Self Service and PNAgent, the relevant root and intermediate certificates must be available on the devices.
  • Root certificates must be transferred to /setup/cacerts.
  • Intermediate certificates must be transferred to /setup/cacerts/intcerts.

  For further information, see Certificates in the Installation guide.

• To connect via HTTPS, for the application type Browser, the relevant root and intermediate certifcates must be available on the devices.

  • Firefox: Root certificates and intermediate certificates must be transferred to /setup/cacerts/firefox
  • Chromium: Root certificates and intermediate certificates must be transferred to /setup/cacerts/browser
• The eLux taskbar should be enabled on the devices if published applications are provided as seamless applications. Seamless applications behave like local applications and users can only restore them from minimized window size by using the taskbar. For further information, see Advanced desktop settings.
