Wow, this is an old post that somehow got put in drafts instead of posted… oops. Original write date was September 04, 2008. This guide should be similar for intrepid, but I will be rewriting it specifically for intrepid soon enough anyway.

This is installing Citrix client on ubuntu 8.04 i386

first, go to citrix.com, click download, and download citrix XenApp, for operating system select Linux, then click Linux ICA Clients below.  Then download the tar.bz file for English (currently version 10.6).

right-click, extract here for the file you downloaded, and then right-click on it, change permissions to create and delte files, read and write, and then click apply permissions to enclosed files.

Then open the setupwfc file in a terminal, and go through the options.

After this is installed, you probably already have firefox installed, but the ASU certificate (equifax) will not be accepted.

go to www.geotrust.com/resources/root_certificates/index.asp#WireLineandWireless  and download Equifax Secure Certificate Authority.  (I downloaded both the Base-64 encoded X.509 and the DER encoded X.509 versions because I wasn’t sure which were needed) to /home/$USERNAME/ICAClient/linuxx86/keystore/cacerts and change the file extensions to .crt instead of .cer.

Once those certificates are installed, restart firefox, and citrix should work.
