vWorkspace Client on Mac OSX

Hello, I just installed my vWorkspace client for MAC on Snow Leopard and I'm getting an error when trying to  connect to the application. The application successfully lists in the app list but the error i'm getting is "Rdesktop error - Unable to connect to server"

Ironically, I can do this replica setup on my Win7 box and it works just fine..

Anyone have any ideas?

thanks

Ryan

are you connecting internally or externally through secure-it.  Are you using the connection broker or are you connecting direct to the Terminal Servers.

App Portal for MAC usually connects through an alternate port and I beleive needs the Connection broker to manage its connections.

hmm, good point so that would be the mac client i'm trying to connect to or the server that houses all the apps/vworkspace mangement console?

thanks

hey Mark, I'm trying to connect internal on the same network the desktop machines are on. I'm using Snow Leopard, that shouldn't be a problem right? I'm also using the connection broker to connect to my app.. I'm pretty sure how can I double check for sure I'm not going through TS?

thanks

Server side…most of us forget that windows 2008 had that damn firewall on and don’t remember until we’ve worked on it for 30 minutes :o)

I know that the app portal needs a separate port then standard RDP when connection to connection broker (I think tis 8080 by default). Have you turned off the firewall on the connection broker box just to test to make sure its not a firewall issue.
