Release Notes
Upgrade and compatibility
The following is a list of items to be reviewed prior to an installation or upgrade to vWorkspace 8.6.3 Release.
Language Support
To support Traditional Chinese, the vWorkspace Connection Broker requires Traditional Chinese (Hong Kong)
language pack.
Monitoring and Diagnostics
The Monitoring and Diagnostics role can be upgraded using the vWorkspace Installer. Refer to the vWorkspace
Administration Guide for detailed steps about upgrade process.
Seamless Windows
With seamless windows, using different Windows Themes between the Windows access device and the
remote desktop can cause problems with the buttons used for minimizing, restoring, and maximizing
windows. We strongly recommend you use the same or a very similar theme in your remote and local
Windows configurations whenever using the seamless windows functionality.
When using RemoteFX in seamless applications, the RemoteFX display resolution and monitor layout
needs to match or exceed the display resolution and monitor layout of the client access device.
Microsoft App-V
Servers version 4.6 or later must be trusted for delegation in Active Directory. When importing
applications from the App-V server, you will receive an error message stating that you need to check the
App-V server URL, user name, and password if the trusted relationship does not exist.
Web Access
In Web Access, published application names that include any of the characters : <, >, |, *, , " , and /\
cannot be launched due to an issue with Microsoft ASP.NET. If the name needs to contain any of these
characters, specify that name in the Display name setting in the vWorkspace Management Console,
Managed Application Properties.
In Web Access, credentials pass-through does not work with Mozilla Firefox unless Firefox is configured
to use Integrated Windows authentication.

To configure Firefox to use Integrated Windows authentication

1 Open Firefox.
2 Type about:config in the address bar.
3 Type network.automatic in the filter box once the config page loads.
4 Modify network.automatic-ntlm-auth.trusted-uris by double-clicking the row, and enter
www.mydomain.com.
5 Repackage browser.xpi, and use the extracted setup to install Firefox.
