Hyena v8.1 New Features

User Communication Portal
The User Communication Portal is a new option available for Active Directory users. The Communication Portal queries the known Active Directory attributes that are related to email, phone, and web addresses and displays the values. Templates can then be created for email and phone contacts, or web addresses can be visited directly. The email communication uses the mailto:: protocol. This protocol supports specifying default values ​​for the subject, cc:, bcc:, and message body of the email. These are all optional values ​​and are stored into the template. By creating multiple templates, a different message type can be configured for different purposes, ie a scheduled system shutdown, company announcement, etc. The calling communication uses the callto:: protocol. This protocol uses a number of parameters and settings, and can be used with NetMeeting, Skype, and other communication systems.

New Update Check Utility
Hyena’s older ‘Check for Updates’ facility has been disabled when run on Windows Vista and later, due to problems with the User Account Control (UAC) facility. In order to have greater control and UAC compatibility, we’ve created our own update checking system. When executed, a small dialog is displayed which shows the license information currently being used. This new system can be run manually from Hyena, through its own shortcut, or automatically (the default) every 30 days when running Hyena.

Exporter Pro Improvements
Exporter Pro can now be used to export Terminal Server session and process information. These new exports are available on the ‘Other’ export properties tab.

Exporter Pro 64-bit Version
To prevent errors caused by missing 32-bit libraries, Exporter Pro is now available in a native 64-bit version.
