We are glad to announce a new major release of rdesktop, version1.8.0. This release includes features regarding authentication and security such as Network Level Authentication (NLA) which adds support for SSL/TLSv1 connections and kerberos server authentication. Connection sharing for SeamlessRDP which will use the same connection against a terminal server to start additional applications. This was done implementing inter process communication (IPC) for rdesktop where a master process is controlled by slave processes. Smart card singel-sign-on functionality for both plain rdp and CredSSP using pin passed as argument to rdesktop. Key changes: * Support for protocol negotiation eg. SSL/TLSv1 and CredSSP * Support for CredSSP + Kerberos authentication (NLA) * Support for smart card single-sign-on * Support passing smart card pin as password on command line * Added IPC for controlling a master rdesktop process * Support for connection sharing when using SeamlessRDP * Improved handling of network connection failures * Autoreconnect using the connection cookie at network failure ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Introducing Performance Central, a new site from SourceForge and AppDynamics.
