Technical Notes
Technical Notes
This section describes important technical information about this release.
Synchronization
Database support requires that client connectivity support be installed for the specific
database(s).
Event Manager
The XML log file plug-in continually expands/appends file; log file should be cleaned up
periodically (from the user’s AppData\Passlogix folder) if it is used as part of a solution.
Logon Support
Embedded browser support, such as from within Lotus Notes, requires that IE 6.0 be installed. It
is not consistent with previous versions of the browser.
Under Windows Server 2003 (as well as Windows XP SP2), browser helper object support is (or
can be) turned off; this security setting is no longer required to be on for ESSO-LM to function
properly and can be turned off if it is no longer needed.
Backup/Restore
Conflicts may occur when using Backup/Restore functionality in conjunction with synchronizer
usage; it is not suggested that a deployed solution utilize both mechanisms and that
Backup/Restore only be used in Stand-alone installations.
Java Sun Plug-in Applets
The Java Applet using Java Sun Plug-in 1.1.3 must be clicked on before the ESSO-LM Agent
responds to it. The plug-in loads the JHO only after the user clicks into the applet UI.
Oracle JInitiator 1.1.8.X functions without this problem.
BHO May Prevent Explorer Windows Taskbar Button from Functioning Properly
Note: This issue occurs on Windows 2000 only.
BHO may prevent explorer windows taskbar button functionality from working properly. When
right-clicked, none of the options that appear in the taskbar button menu will respond when
clicked. This issue only occurs when the explorer window is open in the foreground. When the
window is minimized, the taskbar button functionality works as expected.
Citrix Published Applications Using SendKeys: Cannot Use ‘Set Focus’ Feature
When using SendKeys with Citrix published applications, the SendKeys ‘Set Focus’
feature cannot be used. The reason this feature cannot be used is because Citrix application
windows are painted, so there are no controls on the window. In order for ‘Set Focus’ to function,
it needs to reference a window's controls.
