We're pushing on it, but no official word yet.

Nate,
Do you have any idea whether there will be another Macintosh agent to
resolve the CPU usage and Application folder permission issues?

Subject: Re: [CLEANACCESS] 4.1.3 Look and Feel
David,
4.1.3 has no GUI changes on the Windows agent. The Mac agent GUI was
redesigned to better fit the Mac OS style.
It does add in the new Web Agent functionality which is different, but
that is optional, and if you already have the agent deployed you
wouldn't be switching to the web agent anyways.
As for the disconnect issues, they were caused by a vlan change
detection algorithm in the 4.1.3 agent. The problem occurs when clients
cannot arp for their default gateway. This then triggers an IP
release/renew on the client.
In quite a few environments, it seems there are arp issues, and this
caused numerous disconnect issues with that feature. That feature has
been disabled by default in the 4.1.3.1 agent. You can still enable it
in that version if you need it (namely in OOB scenarios) and arp is
working properly in your environment, but it is off by default and you
will not see the disconnect issues using that agent.

We are getting ready to roll out 4.1.3 in the next 30 to 60 days. We
are on 4.1.1 and haven't had a chance to do anything with the 4.1.3
product yet in the lab. I am aware of the "new features" etc but I
am curious. Is the end user interface different or does it look pretty
much the same?
Our management freaks out if the interface is different. Doesn't
matter about the back end and features. Just the look and feel.
Thanks.
