Linux viewer:transfer connections and configuration from Windows viewe

Support level: Site
1) Is it possible to transfer the connection entries from a Windows viewer to a Linux one? We have a large number of entries in the xml file and simply re-creating them one by one is not feasible.

2) Is it possible to transfer viewer settings, including passwords etc?

3) Finally, is the license file format the same one as in the viewer?
Hello Cosmos,

Thank you for your message.

1. Both Windows and Linux/Mac Viewer use the same address book format. You can use the 'address book manager' (available in the address book tree context menu) on Linux/Mac the same way you can do in the Windows Viewer.

2. This might not be immediately available because currently the Linux/Mac Viewer has more limited functionality than the one for Windows.

3. Yes, it is. Same license key and same registration process.

P.S. I'm saying 'Linux/Mac' because the version for these two OSes shares the same codebase. In most cases when we update a version for Linux that means that an update for Mac is also available, and vice versa.

Thanks.
