Download SecureCRT 7.1.2

VanDyke Software has released an update for version 7.1 of SecureCRT. SecureCRT is, simply put, a extensive version of putty. Slightly less simple it is a client for remote control, file transfers and data tunneling using ssh. Ssh is a method of establishing a secure connection between two computers, in which both the data and part of the IP traffic is encrypted. SecureCRT is available for Windows, Linux, and OS X, and a license costs $100. In version 7.1.2 the following changes and improvements have been made:

Changes:

• With WYSE50 emulation, when the remote system sent ESC * or ESC +, the reverse video attribute could remain set. SecureCRT now clears the display attributes when those escape sequences are received.
• Escape sequences specifying that the entire display should be erased are now ignored when they contain an invalid parameter.
• Added a global-file-only option “Log Uses Generic Write Flag” so that logging works with sessions that connect to a network drive that does not support the FILE_APPEND_DATA flag, such as Novell NSS.

Bug fixes:

• SecureCRT did not correctly handle the xterm-256 color escape sequence CSI38;5;196;4;1m.
• In the “Session Options” dialog, if the background color of the color scheme was changed, it was not saved.
• In the “Connect” dialog, the right-click menu item “Find” did not work.
• The pass-through printing termination sequence was not being honored.
• Pressing the “Advanced” button in the “GSSAPI” dialog caused the dialog to move.
• Windows: On Windows 7, it was not possible to run the modem control panel.
• Mac: Sending chat text to all sessions did not work if focus was switched to another application and then back to SecureCRT.
• Mac/Linux: The global INI-file-only option “Is Full Screen” was not being honored.
