[Qgis-user] QGIS on Thin Client?

[McDonaldR]

Hi Steve

I asked the same question on the UK QGIS Google+ group as we are also wanting to trial QGIS within Citrix.  From feedback I got it appears there are no problems whether running it as a virtual application or via a virtual desktop session.  Matthew Breeze gave positive feedback.

Our Citrix is running Windows Server 2008 R2 64bit.

Subject: [Qgis-user] QGIS on Thin Client?

Hi

Has anyone had any success of getting QGIS to work on Thin Client? I've been asked to investigate this with my ICT department as they are wanting to minimise the number of FAT client install of software. We have Citrix running windows 7, does anyone have any success or horror stories of trying this?

Any help would be gratefully received.

Steve
