More On Project Trinity: PortICA

Friday, 27 October 2006 by Michel Roth

Jeff Muir reveals some more details about the Project Trinity (ICA for Windows XP): "For the first time, it will be possible to host ICA on Windows XP. This makes it possible to use existing ICA clients and infrastructure to access Windows XP desktops. Now that PortICA has been announced as part of Trinity, I can finally start talking about it."

"I�m interested in what people are doing with XP remotely and what kind of things they would like to see happen. As a team, we�d like to see some validation of what we have been working on from the real world. It is important to mention that this is not a project to port Presentation Server to XP. For licensing reasons, we cannot use Presentation Server on XP. It�s complicated (well sort of) to explain. Essentially PortICA uses none of the Terminal Services interfaces and is designed only for a single user environment."
