PNAgent doesn't connect to server and seems to be disconnected

I've completed the Services site/PNAgent, and it works. Sometimes my PNAgent loses connection to the server and I don't understand why. It will prompt me for PNAgent site server path on Application server and then say it can not make connection with server. It will work sometimes and then disconnect. Any idea why this happens?

It also looks like it's disconnected from bottom icon on right side, however my iPhone is working and I can view my apps. See picture.

Are you using a wireless network by chance?

I have a WAP, but my servers are not utilizing the AP. our WAPs are for guest and are on a DMZ.

As far as ICA keep alive, I've adjusted from 60 seconds to the max.

Now -

As I looked at the settings, I noticed that my Licensing server settings (IP) is incorrect. See pic #1.
My licensing management console is on my XenApp Server as you can see on Pic #2.

When I try to access shorcut from Access Management Console it errors out. I'm confused as to why, because when I access from XenApp desktop shortcut, I can get to it, see Pic#3.

Any ideas?

Disregard above pic, the correct pic# 2 is this one....

I have the Citrix Licensing Administration installed on my Xenapp Server (pic# 3), but I'm not sure if this is considered to be a Licensing server. I wonder if this is my problem?

Just to be clear you are using the PNagent on what machine?

I'm sorry for being clueless, but when I stated that PNAgent wasn't connecting, I was talking about very first picture. It's on my XenApp Server. Is that the PNAgent or am I confused with something else. See attached Pic. iPhones weren't working until I connected to the server address pointing to Services Site. This is what I mean when I say PNAgent? Isn't that PNAgent? It looks like it's not connecting, but I was still able to connect with IPhone. Hard to explain, especially when I'm still learning.

So you have the latest client installed and when you try to connect to the WI using the online client, it doesn't connect, is that correct?

My users are not able to connect to WI sometimes and then other times the site comes up after 60 seconds, but then application doesn't come up.

Thanks so much.

Is this the only issue you are having?  Are any users having problems?

I've provided the issues on my posts.

It is not recommended to run this on any citrix server, there really isn't any need.
I thought that this was needed in order to run the Services site for iphone????? Why dont I need it? Please help me understand.

Ok. I may a little confused as to where I have PNAgent installed. On the WI I have Services Site (PNAgent) on WI console. I'm under the impression that PNAgent was the last pic I sent, where I had to connect. Not sure why, but I thought that I had to connect to PNAgent/Config.xml from there, am I wrong? How can I tell where I have PNAgent installed?

Do you know any type of monitoring I can perform?

Also, after looking at all those pics, do you see anything wrong?

Thanks,
