- Update to version 4.6.0.
* Core
* Protocol errors during the initial authentication phase are
handled more reliably. This fixes problems when connecting to
incompatible servers accidentally.
* CLI
* The plugin and feature modules have been added.
* The config and shell plugins have been integrated as static
modules.
* Plugins
* Demo: The visual feedback when (re-)connecting has been
redesigned.
* DesktopServices: The Run program feature has been renamed to
Start application.
* RemoteAccess: The visual feedback when (re-)connecting has
been redesigned.
* RemoteAccess: The computer connection of the main window is
reused if available resulting in immediate access to the remote
computer.
* RemoteAccess: The remote cursor is no longer used in view
only mode to prevent occasionally observed render artifacts.
* UserSessionControl: Non-user sessions (such as display
manager/login screen sessions) are no longer terminated by the
user logoff feature.
* WebAPI: An error code has been added to report protocol
errors occuring while connecting to the Veyon Server.
* WebAPI: The connection limit is enforced at the HTTP server
level already to properly report the connection limit reached
error instead of timing out.
* WebAPI: Skip ping for hosts which no connection could be
established to. This allows using a higher connection limit
on Linux when the number of open file descriptors is limited.
* Master
* In addition to the hostname, the computer display name is
shown in the tooltip of a computer.
* A computer's screen is shown in fullscreen and realtime while
pressing and holding the left mouse button on a computer.
* For Linux clients, [no user] is displayed as the user name
instead of the name of the display manager user.
* Server
* Hostnames of connected computers
(shown in the tooltip of the tray icon) are now reverse
resolved in background to keep connections responsive.
* Linux
* SHM support is being detected more reliably.
* Logging off users is now initiated properly through the
environment-specific session manager while systemd-logind
is used as fallback only. This fixes the display manager
(especially GDM3) not being shown again after logoff.
* Reboot and power down via systemd-logind has been improved
while the environment-specific session manager is used as
fallback only. The reboot and poweroff binaries are not usedany longer.
- Update to version 4.5.7.
* Core: allow minus characters in authentication key name
* Linux: x11vnc: auto-detect SHM support – fixes server crashing
on start in case of lacking SHM support (no need to manually
configure -noshm as extra parameter any longer)
* Linux: fix Veyon session ID detection in case desktop session
path and ID do not match – fixes occasionally broken multi
session support
* WebAPI: improve TLS-related error messages
