ASG V8.203 Up2Date Soft-Release

Today the 8.203 Up2date is available as a soft-release for manual download & installation. The purpose of this Up2Date is to enhance the stability and performance of your ASG 8.2 installation. Several fixes are included. Of note is the reverting of the default SMTP RDNS checks back to the relaxed way, however the more effective "strict" way remains available as an option for those looking to combat spam with the tightest measures. See the other issues we have resolved below.

We plan to release this Up2Date to all installations within the next 7-10 days.

  • does this also solve the problem of DHCP renewal.


    No, I'm afraid. v8.203 only contains fixes for Reporting, SMTP RDNS & HTTP-Proxy.

    The problem you describe (Mantis #19139) is already fixed in v8.300 beta. If that fix is urgent for you, try the beta.

  • Think I've found a bug -- while it does appear to have fixed the ability of the web reporting system to email reports (this was broken in 8.2xx on our production installation) scheduled daily reports, when emailed by the system at 12:45AM, do not appear to be using data from the previous day, rather, it uses data from the "current day" which is about 45 minutes after midnight -- resulting (in our case, we aren't here that late thankfully) in a blank report.  You can reference Ticket #2011101710000946 if that helps.
