Any idea when we can expect to see the Up2Date package for systems running 8.305?

It usually crashed during an Active Directory account import in the middle of the night when no one was in the building.
It's very frustrating to hear from developers, sales, support, or other representative that something is coming out in July, then August, then September...
Many competitors have HTTP header customization and/or URL rewrite capability already built in so customers could use this feature when it came out, other companies that didn't have it were able to provide a check-box or other implementation in a minor update several months ago. With Astaro I am still waiting.

The PostgreSQL database rollover starts at 2:30AM. If you had something else going on at that time, it's no surprise that things got hairy.
The only reason to sync a user from the AD to the Astaro is either because he uses Remote Access that requires a certificate or the Astaro is configured to send him Quarantine reports in Mail Security. Outside of those, no user should be added to Astaro.
I've seen similar situations before in my career, especially with schools and government, but also with businesses. The mistake was for Astaro to agree to let your consortium structure the deal in such a way that you have no knowledgable reseller involved and no one trained in sales and service at the consortium. Those people all do a great job for us, and our customers get what they need from our company.
In a way, you've been a casualty of the transition from Astaro to Sophos. Instead of continuing to add such features to V8, the developers were made to focus on V9. This did not occur in the same way when V8 was released. A hint of that is that the last release of 8 will be 8.306, and the last for V7 was 7.512. Going forward, I don't expect this to happen again.
