May 31, 2016
  • setting up on github, with current version of code. (migrating from svn and local project artifacts)
  • reintroduced {CRYPT} userpassword formats for legacy directory support - note that CRYPT is not secure, and should not be used if at all possible
  • changed handling of tree operation confirmation pop-up to reduce chance of accidental deletions
  • moved to java 1.6 for standard build (should still compile under 1.5).
  • some messing around with build file to make it more reliable and git friendly
  • formatting this file to be .md friendly

New in JXplorer 3.3.1.1 (Jan 29, 2015)

  • Updated help with information on new 'advanced userPassword editor'

New in JXplorer 3.3.1.1 RC 3 (Dec 9, 2014)

  • modified SHA- and SSHA- algorithms to *not* have '-' characters in the algorithm name in the LDAP value: e.g. "{SSHA51}s234xqw..." instead of "{SSHA-512}s234xqw..."
