Release Notes

Public

9.0.16.4228: May 13 2020

New

All platforms - Server: secure LDAP connections now supported on port 636.

We added support to the Plastic server for SSL connections to your LDAP server. Configure your server (using the "plasticd configure" command, or the web based administration tool) to switch the LDAP port from 389 to 636 to take advantage of a secure connection to LDAP, assuming your LDAP server is configured to support this.

New

All platforms - Command line client: partial update and partial switch errors now output to standard error.

We used to write the errors for these commands to standard output but, after several C-level internal meetings and public consultations, decided to write the errors to standard error, like we do for other commands.

New

All platforms - clconfigureclient: optionally specify (alternative) configuration file path.

We have added an optional argument to "clconfigureclient" which lets you specify an alternative configuration file location.

The argument can be a full path, a filename or a directory.

Examples:

# Specified path will be used for client configuration
--clientconf=c:/path/to/myclient.conf

# File myclient.conf inside default config directory will be used
--clientconf=myclient.conf

# Default filename, client.conf, in specified directory will be used
--clientconf=c:/exisitingDirectory
