Great job guys!! This is turning out te be some bada** Citrix killer. Spending about 10x more money to get the same or even less usability is going to be very hard to justify with 2X around! Any idea about when this is going to be a production release? Just a couple of questions: - Am i right in assuming we don't need Acrobat Reader anymore for the Universal Printing option, if using EMF? So i don't need anything installed on the client side except for the AppServer client? - How does the e-mail redirection work? I don't really get this, but it seems like something i'd want to use - Does the WebPortal support (LDAP/AD) authentication? Thanks! Dennes
both emf and bmp printing do not require any 3rd party software to be installed... and the result is even better.
Linux Client When are we going to see some changes in the Linux client?? It's still in the version 4 period. That's like 19th century in computer terms. It's still kinda buggy and very limited in features. I would really like to see a similar looking client in linux as there is in windows.... Also, copy and paste would be nice (stable of course)
Release date Hi Nixu, Do you have a releasedate for V6 I need the new universal printerfunctionality + all other nice things or do you think that this beta is so stable that it is possible to take it in a production environment
Hi there, Following the big number of posts regarding 2x ApplicationServer 6 Beta, it was time to do some reorganization. Basically the posts were moved to one of the following topics: 2x ApplicationServer 6 Beta - Experience Settings Lost 2x ApplicationServer 6 Beta - Single Sign On Vista x64 2x ApplicationServer 6 Beta - Color Depth in Multi Monitor 2x ApplicationServer 6 Beta - 2XClient & MSClient Vista 2x ApplicationServer 6 Beta - URL - file Redirection 2x ApplicationServer 6 Beta - Mixed with Version 5 If you find any issues regarding Beta 6, please do let us know in this topic. Thanks for posts & keep them coming Nixu
Re: Linux Client I second this question... Are you going to update the linux client?? This is progressively more important because the end clients are increasingly moving to open source due to MS licensing prices. regards,
Hi there, A New Beta version (410) is available at: http://downloads.2x.com/AppServer-LoadBalancer/betaversion/ nixu
