Incredible. I too had spent at least a day trawling the net and reading many confusing and sometimes confused suggestions of how to resolve this.

Thanks a million

I used the solution from

http://support.citrix.com/article/CTX122965

I.e. I opened port 1495 on my router/firewall. and Bingo!

You rock, I installed and configured Citrix and was able to log into my companies portal but when I lunched an app I’d get a Equifax cert error. I did all kinds of searches and could fins a solution until I came across this site.I did what you suggested about and coping everything to the ICA folder no Citrix works like a charm. Thanks so much

I don’t think this is a problem in the ICA client, as I can connect to one site, L, while I am unable to connect to another site, G, where I receive the SOCKS 5 handshake error. I am using Citrix client version 11.0-1 in openSUSE 11.1

To make matters worse, I only receive the error when connecting over Internet, not when I am on-site and connect over their LAN. I am able to connect to L from the wireless network on-site in G’s offices, but not able to connect to G over the same connection.

I reported the problem to the IT service desk of the company responsible for the solution. After a while I was called back, and they don’t have a solution. So far what he had found out was that this could be related to the server-side, where it seems this problem occurs only for the more recent version of the software.

What I currently do is connect to L and then connect from there (Windows environment) to G – awkward, but it got me connected!

Thanks Tor. That was bugging me for a while. Downloading the certs for Equifax Secure Global from geotrust.com worked for 32 bit systems but it didn’t work on my amd64 system. This however solved the problem nicely thank you very much.

Ken.

You star! I’ve been fiddling around for a couple of days now trying to get Citrix to work on Ubuntu. Now it does! :-)

Same problem for me… My government employer seems reluctant to update their certificate for one of the systems they make us use. Fortunately my main role does not see me needing to access it much, so I can use Windows computers when I need to… But it’s still annoying.

I have not found a way to bypass expired server certificates when using the Linux client.

Thank you. I can now get past error 61. However, I now get error 70 (expired certificate). Yes, the certificate has expired, but how can I tell the Linux client to go ahead and connect anyway? The Windows client gives a warning, but allows you to connect if you want.
