hello,
I have to install a new win2k3 TS with citrix. This is in a novell
network (had 1 active directory server but caused too many head-aches
with 2 logins for users).

I'd like to confirm a few things:
1) Can I run the licensing server on the same TS server box so I
don't need to have 2 boxes (one is wasted for just doing licensing).

2) I also need to run citrix on this box, can I run citrix on term
server doing it's own licensing?

3) We are using citrix XP (a bit old now). We have to use a citrix
gateway running on a dmz box for metaframe XP. Does the new version
of citrix still require seperate machine running as a gateway?

4) For authentication I'd like to use the novell edirectory. Can
anyone see any problems from this? I like to use the novell system
for storing files because it doesn't get corrupt like the windows
servers do after a few years. It's just more reliable and less head-
aches for me since I have to maintain this thing.
Any issues with running terminal services authenticating to
edirectory?

Thanks,

Oskar

You can Install Terminal Server and Terminal Server License Server on the
same box.
