Tested Application Clients:

Latest version of Citrix®

G/On for Citrix (Citrix Connector) supports the following Citrix features:

  • Single sign-on
  • Citrix server farms
  • Citrix Web Access
  • Citrix XML Interface

Using iPad and iPhone:

Citrix access is not supported on iOS in
G/On version 5.5
Latest version of Microsoft® Windows® Terminal Server 2003 and 2008

G/On for RDP (RDP Connector) supports the following TS 2008 features:

  • Single sign-on
  • TS server farms
  • TS 2008 Remote apps

  • TS 2008 Connection Broker and redirection messages

    (G/On for RDP replaces the need for TS 2008 Gateway)

Using iPad and iPhone

Support for RDP Connector from iOS
requires RDP clients for iOS fully compliant
with Microsoft’s official specification of the
RDP protocol. G/On’s RDP Connector
incorporates protocol inspection and
currently the following RDP Clients for
iOS have been successfully tested:

  • Wyse PocketCloud (Free & Pro) by Wyse
    Technology
  • iRdesktop by Thinstuff s.r.o.
  • iRemoteDesktop Free by Hana Mobile LLC
  • iTAP RDP, HLW Software Development GmbH

Other RDP clients for iOS are likely to work using
G/On’s Transparent TCP Connector but will work
only for access to office PC (“My Office PC”) and
a single Terminal Server and without server side Single Sign-On.
   

Browser:

G/On 5.5 introduces a new Proxy Connector for HTTP & SOCKS providing full support for secure remote browser access to web apps. The G/On Proxy Connector for HTTP & SOCKS includes the following functionality:

  • Server side Single Sign-On to web applications using http basic authentication (when using HTTP proxy)
  • Server side DNS name resolution
  • Target server white listing
  • Support for Microsoft Internet Explorer (IE) through IE based G/On browser (GIPIE) for access to OWA, Microsoft SharePoint and other web apps, intranets and portals.
  • Support for G/On supplied “portable” Firefox browser
  • Other browsers that can be launched with instructions to use SOCKS and/or HTTP proxy

Using iPad and iPhone:

G/On’s Client for iOS, App Store Edition includes a
secured browser with full support for G/On’s Proxy
Connector for HTTP & SOCKS. That means,

  • Server side Single Sign-On to web applications
    using http basic authentication
  • Server side DNS name resolution
  • Target server white listing
  • iOS Webkit based browser for access to OWA,
    intranets, portals, and other web apps.
   

Other applications:

G/On’s Transparent TCP Connector provides a general port forwarding mechanism to establish authenticated, encrypted, and authorized TCP connectivity between application clients and their corresponding servers. For instance, it is possible to use the native iOS mail client on iPad and iPhone by enabling port forwards for IMAP communication between the mail client and the Microsoft Exchange Server. This option may be relevant in cases where it is considered acceptable that the native mail client for iPad/iPhone leaves copies of mails on the device for future offline use.
