We have been trying to install Notes 8.5 Standard on our Citrix Farm. Thus far I am able to run Basic the same old way that most do whereas Program Files on the Citrix server and User data in the users home folder (File Server. (Not supported I know but we have ran this way for years!) This has worked since the day of R5...most will agree. I can get Notes 8.5 basic to work the same way but not Standard....in most cases standard fires up at first attempt on First CTX Box...then if I flip over to second CTX Server with same account...it takes a while to configure..only get the spalsh screen and nothing more.

My Second attempt involves configuring Notes 8.5 Standard however following IBM's recommendation tod o a single user install and the users Home folder must be on the local CTX Server. Ok I did that and it does work like a champ for Single user install...however we have several Ctrix servers and If we have the users home folder reside locally on each one?? how does one sync the contacts, bookmarks etc between the 2 servers. Roaming apparently is not supported in a Citrix/TS environment!

Am I missing something? any suggestions? Anyone with experience with 8.5 Std and Citrix Farm?
