Hi,

Config:

W2K Adv Server
Citrix XPe
4GB Ram

What is the best setting for Virtual Memory?
Do I need the /3GB?

Thanks

Terminal Services performance can be improved by the /3GB switch, but it is not always better or necessary to use. You should evaluate any other s/w that will be in use on the server by the TS users etc. and do some benchmarking if possible. The following article provides some good information on the subject:

This KB Article gives you good info on the /3GB switch. I hope it helps.
