This version solves my connection issue on my windows 2003 server.
When starting the client it looks like it takes more time to show all the jobs, but it's starting again without any errors in the logs.

Thnx

Hi,

When I start a FTP connection in the FTP explorer, the grid with all the events is showing the password.
I think this should be ****** just as all the other logs.

FTPS commandsent: PASS 123456789

It is limited to the current pc (server) only through the API.

Just thinking of some use cases for this, if I understand correctly you could have jobs which send an email if a user locks or logs off their PC? (assume the log off is triggered before VC shuts down), could we potentially have the reverse and have an email fired if a user doesn't logoff their PC after a certain amount of time? (I guess we have a time based trigger which is de-activated by the log off trigger)
Any other thoughts as to what this might be usable for?

Hi,

Something I encounterd in the current production, but also in this beta:

In the Read XML node task you can add a namespace (prefix + URI).
If you edit this namespace it adds a new namespace.

Hi,

If you go to the variable window and browse to an exsiting job and open a file event trigger and look at the Last Run date you get an error: Error in argument
What is wrong here is the comma in the variable at the end just before the date time format:

{TRIGGER(3a937766-2db7-4929-b004-2f36125b1edc|b6729bd5-205f-4980-8c52-4d070c13c48f|LastRun,M/d/yyyy h:mm tt)}

if you change the comma to a pipe it works fine:

{TRIGGER(3a937766-2db7-4929-b004-2f36125b1edc|b6729bd5-205f-4980-8c52-4d070c13c48f|LastRun|M/d/yyyy h:mm tt)}
