Anyone...

I am using NFuse 2.0, CSG 2.0, and FR3. I have some client that have to connect from behind a proxy server, some from behind a firewall, and some from dial-up. The CSG is working find from behind the firewalls and from dial-up but I can not get it to connect from the clients behind the proxy server. Error is :

Cannot connect to the Citrix Meta Frame server.
Server is not accepting connections

Does anyone know how to configure it so people behind the proxy server can connect to the CSG server via 443? The people behind the proxy can connect to the NFuse server and get their icons via the proxy server. The proxy settings are set in the connect section of IE 6. It looks like the ICA client is trying to connect to the CSG directly and is not going to the proxy server. I know this because, when i let it just pas through the firewall I can see a connection to the proxy server for HTTP and I see a connection to the CSG for HTTPS not the proxy server as it should be.
 
Hmmm - I think it (the client) does actually need a direct connection to the CSG server. I have not yet seen it work successfully through a proxy.

Sorry.
