    In the process of setting up 200+ workers with citrix just in case:rolleyes:

    Anyone else had to implement a "just in case" plan

    WE already have Citrix, but don't think this has even been brought up. Think we only have a 10 user licence for it aswell so wouldn't be any use if the office was closed!

    Suppose in worst case scenario we could let people in using cisco VPN client.

    We've invested quite a significant amount of time and effort in planning for a Swine Flu pandemic. Hysterical Britain, lol

    In reality we have thousands of customers with Blackberry access, thousands more with access to our Citrix Secure Gateway and thousands more laptops with VPN access. I'm sure if the end of the world comes we'll have more than enough capacity to accomodate the 3 people who'll be willing to remote in and work :biggrin

    I'm developing a "just in case" plan to protect myself from all the crazy people with tinfoil hats and surgical masks.

    Laughed hard at that one:biggrin

    It created a hell of alot of work and we could have done it on a per user basis without having to buy licences. install a new server and spend next week doing load testing!! Ha but I'm on holiday next week and the deadline is the 17th. It'll all be finished when I get back:hahaha

    We were in the process of implementing Terminal Services anyway for most of our users so not too much extra work for me, of course should swine flu do its best to cripple the company we haven't got enough licenses for everyone so we'll still be screwed (management sign off on more won't happen till the new budget comes through in October).
