Cendio are proud to present ThinLinc 4.19.0, with more than 110 enhancements and fixes. The most prominent changes are:
-
The load balancer has been replaced and is now based on the principle of keeping the same number of users on each agent. This will provide a more robust and consistent behavior, and should be more predictable. The system can also be configured to intentionally spread users unevenly, if some agents have more resources than others.
-
ThinLinc now supports the back and forward buttons commonly found on modern computer mice. Note that both the client and server must be upgraded for this new feature to work.
-
The system requirements for ThinLinc have been increased, and distributions that are out of general support will not be able to use ThinLinc. Affected systems are Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7, Ubuntu 18.04, Debian 9, and SUSE Linux Enterprise 12. Users are encouraged to upgrade to more current versions of their distributions.
-
Free usage of ThinLinc for up to 10 concurrent users will now require downloading a separate license file. Without the license file installed, only 3 concurrent users are allowed. As before, the full product functionality is provided for these users.
