Open known issues
– The notation about required Fuse version needs to be updated on install and run. Please use Fuse 10.3.4 (latest) with client 5.4.2.
– User names are occasionally saved even when “remember me” is not checked.
– Opening office documents which are in use (locked) by another user will not produce the same locked/in use message as connecting via SMB or PC Map Drive Client. Warnings about the file being read only appear in the Window title bar and when saving.
– A generic system message is shown for path or file names which are too deep instead of an informative message.
– Files changed in other clients or on the network may not immediately display as changed in Finder. If the file is deleted or renamed you will get a message that the removed file cannot be accessed. Changed files are updated to the latest on open, so don’t worry that you could be editing some old version of the file. Its just the display which may, at times, fall out of date.
Additionally, a couple of our newer features of MyWorkDrive server are not yet supported –
– Custom Error Message for Password Expired and Account Locked Out
– Map Drive client specific file size limits
Finally, please note that on Catalina 10.15, you must authorize the application when you attempt to install by visiting security & privacy in system preferences to approve it.
