What is the difference between XDM and Citrix
Hi all,

I have remote 2Mbs connection to server.

I am wondering - what is the difference (i mean - transferring data) between Citrix sessions and XDMCP?

Why I can connect to server using Citrix and when clicking to open some application its opening fast, but when i am clicking to open same application using XDMCP, i have to wait long time while application will start???

There is no such problem when I am trying to open application in local network (100MBs) using XDM.

Thanks in advance.

xnbd-bgctl

XNBD-BGCTL(1)						      General Commands Manual						     XNBD-BGCTL(1)

NAME

       xnbd-bgctl -- Control a server running xnbd-server(8) through its control socket

SYNOPSIS

       xnbd-bgctl [--cache-all]  [--cache-all2]  [--query]  [--reconnect REMOTE_HOST	   REMOTE_PORT]  [--shutdown]  [control_socket]

DESCRIPTION

       With  the  xmbd-bgctl command you can connect to a xnbd-server control channel and instruct it to act as directed. You may pass an argument
       to the control program which is then forwarded, on your behalf, to the server instance.

OPTIONS

       The following options are supported:

       --cache-all
		 If the remote xnbd-server acts as proxy server, this command intstructs the controlling xnbd-server instance to cache all  blocks
		 on  its  associated block disk. Upon completion the controlled xnbd instance holds all data from the origin instance and it is no
		 longer necessary to act as proxy.

       --cache-all2
		 This command is identical to cache-all but detaches the process from the terminal and is hence using a dedicated  connection  for
		 data transfer.

       --query	 This  command	retrieves  completion  statistics  from  the  proxy server instance. It returns the number of cached blocks on the
		 server.

       --reconnect
		 This command recovers from a lost connection by re-establishing connectivity with the origin server.  This  command  expects  two
		 additional arguments, the REMOTE_HOST, and the REMOTE_PORT    you want to connect to, to recover from a disconnected session.

       --shutdown
		 This command stops the proxy server and restarts the target server.  All client sessions are preserved.

POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS

       The following positional options are supported:

       CONTROL_SOCKET
		 The Unix domain socket, the xnbd-server(8) program is listening on.
