Open-Xchange provides with the new version two main improvements which it is necessary to adapt for the administrator:
- OXtender for Mac OS X will be discontinued due to the fact that the latest version of Apple OS X “Lion” does no longer support Apple SyncServices, which synchronization with OXtender for Mac OS X was based on. To support future synchronization between Open-Xchange Server and Mac OS X application, Open-Xchange has implemented synchronization functionality based on CalDAV and CardDAV protocols. Both new synchronization protocols are available for Open-Xchange Server Edition and Open-Xchange Hosting Edition.
Please note: As of today Open-Xchange CalDAV and CardDAV support is „Beta“ and will be continuously enhanced. With this release, native OS X applications (iCal, Address Book) are supported. Support for other clients e.g. Thunderbird is planned for future releases. CardDAV support synchronizes two address books. Currently the global address book plus the users private address book will get merged into one address book on OS X. - Due to incidents in certain Apache/load balancer configurations, insecure easyLogin procedures had explicitly been deprecated. As a replacement a secure login servlet has been provided with the major release v6.20. To enforce transition to secure environments, a configuration switch has been introduced with this Public PTF. The default setting no more allows less secure easy-login access. For details please refer to Change #798 in the configuration Changes chapter of the Release Notes.
- Support for Microsoft Windows Terminal Server 2003
OXtender 2 for Microsoft Outlook has been tested and optimized for operation on Microsoft Windows Terminal Server 2003.
