Importance of this update: [WORKAROUND]
What’s changed?
- Implemented a work-around to gracefully handle buggy SFTP clients that attempt multi-phase authentication in the wrong order (not the order explicitly mandated by the SSH2 protocol standard); most of these situations will now be handled internally by Syncplify Server! while maintaining session consistency at the same time
IMPORTANT NOTE: those who are running the “worker” system service under a different account (not System or LocalSystem) will need to re-configure the service to run under such account after upgrading from any version number <= 6.1.12)
Upgrading from v6.x.y is a simple and fairly automatic process: simply download the latest version from the official download page, and install it over the existing version, all of your settings and license will be kept.
If, instead, you’re upgrading from an older (v4/v5) version, you find the upgrade instructions in our knowledge base.
