| Starting Installation |
- To start, point your browser to:
http://vcitrixweb-1.ottawa.ad.algonquincollege.com
This is the login page. To login, use your Algonquin College NT username and password (same as Windows logon).
- Before logging in, check the message center panel to the right. This panel will tell you if
there are any errors. At this point, if you have never installed the plugin, you should see
a yellow triangle with an exclamation point and a message which reads:
"You do not have the MetaFrame Presentation Server Client (Plugin) for 32-bit Windows installed
on your system. You must install the client to launch applications."

| Downloading the Citrix MetaFrame plugin |
- We must now install the Citrix MetaFrame Presentation Server Client for 32-bit Windows. To do this,
click on the MetaFrame Presentation Server Client link. This will open a window asking if you'd
like to save or run a file called ica32t.exe.
- To continue, either save the file to your hard drive and run it from there or choose the option to run
it directly from this window.
- The file will now download. If you chose to run the file, it will start automatically, otherwise
you will have to browse to the file and run it manually.
