Windows 8 Support

Just a quick update regarding Windows 8.

AccessAnywhere fully supports Windows 8.

* Must be in Desktop Mode there is no "Metro" support at this time.
* If users find that AnywhereLAN is disconnecting have them Edit Profile and select Windows 8 in the "Platform Setting"

 Thank you

Administrative Console Updates

Back to the future. Many of you will recall support for our Two-Factor Authentication options via the Administrative console. When we switched token technologies we had to remove this support. We are happy to announce that token management is back. The new Console update will allow: * Assignment of Hardware Tokens to Users * Provisioning of Software Tokens to Users * Change of PIN for Hardware Tokens. More development in this area is ongoing.

Mountain Lion Support

AccessAnywhere Systems is pleased to confirm full compatibility of the AnywhereLAN network extension to OS X Mountain Lion. This includes being code signed to protect the security of your Apple System

Apple Snow Leopard

Just a quick note to confirm that the Leopard release of AnywhereLAN Connect
client is supported in Snow Leopard in 32 bit mode.

Snow Leopard runs in 32 bit emulation mode unless specifically booted to
true 64 bit mode. This is the default configuration.

At this time we will not function in a full 64 bit booted system as our
system extensions are only 32 bit.

Generally this should not be an issue as this is required until all OS X software
developers release 64 bit versions of system level components.

Thank you

The AccessAnywhere Development Team.

Announcing AnywhereLAN Client 2.1.19

We are happy to announce the release of AnywhereLAN 2.1.19. This is primarily a compatibility release targeted for Windows 7.

Key Items:

* Fully supports Windows 7 - and Vista of course.
* Unified 32/64 Bit Windows Installer.
* Full Windows manifest configurations. This primarily allows proper user privilage escalation in Vista and Windows 7.
* As a result of the above non-Admin accounts can be used to run AnywhereLAN provided they are in at least the Network Administrators Group. In this case the user
will be prompted for their login information to verify privilege escalation to any higher level groups, but the user does not have to actually be an Admin.

Other Changes:

* Vista / Windows 7 installer will place a "Connect AnywhereLAN" icon on the users desktop. Clicking this will start AnywhereLAN and begin the connection process.

A Quick Update

Folks,

It's been too long since the last posting. So thought we'd drop a quick note and outline some of the things that are upcoming, we've been quite but busy. Details regarding each of these will be posted as they are finalized.

* Windows 7 32-bit status.
* 64 Bit AnywhereLAN Client Production Version
* Introduction of Self-Help Account Administrator tools
* Storage and Network Attached Storage options with Off-Site Backup.

Thank you
