Bomgar Release 10.1.2 (July 1, 2008)

July 1, 2008

Feature Enhancements:

  • Connection Agents Now Have Password Confirmation - to reduce typing errors when entering the Connection Agent password, a second password entry has been added to confirm the password is typed correctly
  • LDAP Providers
    • LDAP User Providers and LDAP Group Providers can now have independent search OUs. This improves search efficiency for customers who keep their users and groups in separate, independent OUs.
    • Improved error reporting to help diagnose LDAP connectivity errors.
  • Manual settings for Failover Roles - a checkbox has been added to the Failover page that enables and disables automatic data-syncs.
  • Alerts Audio alerts are now supported for MAC and Linux.

Issues Resolved:

  • Administrative Interface
    • Administrators changing the username for Local users could result in a duplicate user being created.  This has been fixed.
    • Users from remote providers can now change their display name
    • In certain circumstances, users from remote providers would be unable to authenticate with the Bomgar Box, even when their credentials were valid.  This has been fixed.
    • When configuring Clusters of Clusters in a Failover scenario, navigation through the Web Interface to define Group Policies now handles Failover properly
    • When a user or group provider was configured with multiple object ID mappings, Search functionality would no longer function for that Provider in Group Policies. If a user from this provider was added to a Group Policy, further edits of this group policy would not display the user’s or group’s name properly.  This has been fixed.
    • When editing an LDAP Group Provider to copy its configuration from an existing LDAP User Provider, if the User Provider is using anonymous binding or a connection agent, the Group Provider now saves properly
    • Kerberos Keytabs are now included in backups
    • A bad link on the Outbound Events Edit Recipient page has been fixed
  • Clients
    • Using the shift key to highlight text is working again
    • After rebooting, the screen sharing scroll bars appear as expected now
    • Permissions for the screen sharing prompt are now saved correctly
    • An issue where, occasionally, the RepClient would not be able login after a site install or upgrade has been fixed

Known Issues:

  • When restoring a backup, if any Outbound Event Recipients are configured to use HTTP and you have uploaded the remote site’s certificate or issuer public key, you will be required to re-upload the public key after the restore has completed
  • Sending Ctrl-Alt-Delete to a customer before disabling the Privacy Screen can have problems
  • When using Dashboard to monitor another Rep, the remote mouse is not displayed
  • Using “edit” during a Windows Remote Shell session restricts the usable size of the Remote Shell window
  • A destination drive or folder must be selected to activate the “upload” button for File Transfer
