RE: Pentesting a Citrix Network

Yes, that's what I have done in the past. The HTTP server is related to the
'published applications' function within Citrix. If you take a Citrix ICA
client and attempt to list the published apps on a specified server you will
see an HTTP POST request go to the Citrix HTTP server, I don't remember the
script name but it is in a /scripts/ directory.

Set up your Citrix connection, from the client, as a TCP/IP+HTTP connection
and you will be able to examine the requests (which are cleartext)

cheers

What about setting up a citrix client, and then sniffing the data between
them?

I'm pentesting a network that includes two Citrix servers on
Win 2k.  As I
have no experience whatsoever with Citrix, I thought I'd ask if
anyone can
help me out.  The servers listen on port 80, with the following banners:

HEAD / HTTP/1.0

HTTP/1.1 400 Bad request
Server: Citrix Web PN Server
Date: xxxx
Connection: Close

They also listen on the 1494 port (which is designated for citrix)

I was unable to get it to respond to any HTTP request, by hand or with a
browser.

I'd appreciate if anyone could help me with some of the following
questions
(again, they may be basic, I have never used Citrix):

Which Citrix product is it?  Is there a way to fingerprint it?
How do I get it to respond to HTTP requests?
Are there any information disclosure possibilites?  How about
vulnerabilities (i.e. buffer overflows, etc.)?

Any help would be very appreciated!
