Changing resolution causes mouse to track incorrectly in Agent

Hello Aaron,

Could you try enabling "Use legacy capture mode" in the Host options. Here is a screenshot:

Callback not working in MSI with Agent option

Hello Aaron,

Thanks for letting us know. Perhaps, this has something to do with multiple runs of the Agent on the same computer and cached data. Let us check this more thoroughly and I will get back to you soon.

Changing resolution causes mouse to track incorrectly in Agent

Hello Aaron,

Thank you for your post.

Could you try restarting the remote session , that is - close the Full Control window and re-launch it - after you change resolution.

Version 6.8 and a new MSI configurator

Hello Dan,

We tried to reproduce the issue but we coudn't. The configurator works as it should, and the file is downloaded from the server successfully.

Perhaps, that was some temporary glitch? Could you try configuring now and let us know.

Thanks.

Android App Comments

Hello Tony,

We will be reviewing and updating the mobile app some time soon and we'll look at this issue too. Sorry for any inconvenience.

Could you tell us the phone make/model and Android version? Thanks.

You are welcome! And thank you for the kind words!

Android App Comments

Hello Tony,

Thank you for your post.

You should double-tap and start holding on the second tap. That way it should work.

Hello Jim,

We are still working on it. The updated mobile should become available either at the same time, or a little bit later than the Viewer for Mac (which is our current priority).

Security enhancements

Hello,

I think having a certificate check is more in line with the current standard in identification so that is good news.

Exactly. That was the reason why we implemented such identification.

On the other hand, it might make things a little bit more complex for the average user. But of course a lot of stuff can be automated (e.g. generating and signing certificates).

Nothing is required on the user part. The certificate is generated automatically, you cannot "disable" it. I.e. this system is always on - the user will only know that something is wrong when the Viewer cannot check the validity of the certificate.

Of course the service must be designed to work under a restricted account, if not then I agree with you that it is a half-baked solution and you might run into problems sooner or later.

You pinned it down :) The server is designed to work with full privileges.

But I want to stress that having a service running under a restricted account is really an additional security layer and is not something to be taken lightly. Especially when this service is accessible from the outside. Improving security is done by adding robust and tough layers on different levels in the system. I really hope you take this in consideration and have a look at this topic.

Thank you! We will definitely take note.

Don't hesitate to ask me if you have other questions.
