Greetings,

Obviously, I have a bias for this answer, but running the gui via Citrix
isn't a pretty thing.  Citrix just doesn't set all the environment variables
properly. The same would apply for the database revision control.  If I
remember correctly, although I'd have to consult the documentation, running
anything of Check Point's software in citrix is unsupported.  In this case,
unsupported also means doesn't work well ;).
