Important Fixes

1. MYB1261 available for PassGo SSO/InSync Server

Under some exceptional circumstances, multiple events may be generated unnecessarily. This may result in a performance overhead. MYB1261 provides protection against these multiple events being propagated around the InSync/SSO system. Please contact PassGo Support for this and any other co-requisite fixes required.

2. MYB1257 available for PassGo SSO/InSync Server

Date based licenses are sometimes issued and this fix helps you to realize the need to replace the current license. A console message is issued daily as a reminder that a restart will fail unless the license is renewed. Please contact PassGo Support for this and any other co-requisite fixes required.

3. SYB0805 available for PassGo NC-Syncom

Improvement to the code that re-establishes links after a link failure. To get a link between two NC-Syncom tasks working again after a link failure can take more than one attempt. This fix improves the recovery code so that one attempt is all that is normally necessary. Please contact PassGo Support for this and any other co-requisite fixes required.
