Netsweeper is pleased to announce the Netsweeper Workstation Agent 4.40 EA release. This release improves security on all platforms by enforcing https certificate validation unless the new -k argument is used. All customers upgrading must make sure they have a valid certificate on their WebAdmin or Agent server or properly reconfigure with the -k argument. This release also brings AppConfig for Windows, MacOS, allowing customers to push plist/registry settings to the MacOS service.
If you have any questions or concerns about planning an upgrade to this release, please contact Netsweeper Technical Support support@netsweeper.com.
