Anyone aware of any SIP softphones that might virtualize well with Citrix presentation server? I suspect I know the answer already as I have been researching softphones that work with Cisco CallManager that can be virtualized if you will with Citrix and have come to learn that its not something that seems to be doable at this time. I have to assume that the issues affecting the virtualization of cisco softphones with Citrix will come into play with SIP softphones as well. Seems that the two biggest issues revolve around wrapping the UDP stream up with the ICA protocol, and possibly issues with the various mics and speakers and having to interface with them I think. However, I am also a firm believer that anything is possible, practical well not usually, and it may just be the time has not come yet for this. There is a good article about this over at: http://www.brianmadden.com/content/article/How-should-Citrix-integrate-VoIP-with-Presentation-Server Any thoughts, comments or insight into this and your experiences around any of this is appreciated. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

There is an option you might consider (if you are starting from scratch). Don't use citrix. Write a web app. Then embed a softphone in that web app. Tim.

d4rk f1br a ?crit :> Anyone aware of any SIP softphones that might virtualize well with > Citrix presentation server? I suspect I know the answer already as IMozPhone (moziax.mozdev.org) has been designed to be run in thin client environment. I don't know much about Citrix, but I have customers running MozPhone on thin clients in a Terminal Server environment. The idea is that sound and IAX communication are managed locally on the thin client, while user interface (Firefox extension) runs on the terminal server.
