Citrix: I use this to access our Electronic medical record, sort of like a VPN/remote desktop connection thru your browser. I believe it uses Java.

Log in using 2 factor authentication (phone or beeper for secondary)
Very useful as we really dont need to install install any software on the client side to access our EMR.




Sorry I am a non tech/network person.

Good luck

There you go OP. Just tell them its a Java VPN used to access medical records. You're all set!

Obviously ... what I'm saying is if you've administered these products can you provide a description of what I'd need to know to do so.

No need to be such negative nancies

Do you realise, you are running rough shot over my some of my skill base?!

Many years ago, six weeks into being hired for a job as sysadmin which included administering the corporate Exchange email server, it crashed hard midday. It was on my shoulder to get the company back up running while the IT Director was fending off the CEO. Let's just say I did ok and we all got to keep our jobs and I got a nice first raise. Be careful what you wish for.

Um...you're not going to be able to learn much about them without experience.

Trust me. They're all VERY complex in different ways, it's not a one click "install and forget" for them.

"Exchange server? We should outsource that to a hosted Exchange provider"

Solves that problem.

Lol agree with that one from what I've seen at my current company with Exchange and from running it on a VM ... 4gb out of the box... insanity.

I've never met you, but after that post I hate you. Outsourced servers are the bane of my existence.

Let me guess, you work for Tata or Infosys? They probably told their client in the US that they have an Exchange expert available right now!
