Hi

I recently purchased a neoware Capio 508 thin client for testing purposes (gotta replace the old WinTerms). One of the features of the 508 is it's support for a usb floppy drive. After booting to the Linux firmware on the 508 and entering the console, I found I was able to read the floppy from this point. However, when I proceed to the ICA session, I noticed the floppy drive is no longer there. Now, I understand NT 4.0 doesn't support USB but is there any possible way to make this work? Perhaps some of you have been able to have a USB floppy drive enabled on a TSE enviornment? As it is now, people are adding "standalones" which really defeats the purpose of even having Citrix. Thank you in advance!
 
Hi: I'm having similar problems, mostly with USB memory sticks that don't show up for the ICA session, but are working fine at the CE OS level. Did you find a fix/workaround/configuration change for this one?
