Receiver 13.10 for Linux

Release Date: Jun 20, 2018

Logging enhancements

Logging enhancements feature is an extension of Better logging I. Retail logging support is being introduced for the Connection Center, Graphics (thinwire), and End User Experience Monitoring (EUEM) modules. This enhancement helps users troubleshoot, and - in cases of complicated issues - facilitate the support team's job by using detailed logs.

For information about enabling retail logging, see Enabling retail logging. (hyperlink to be added)

Cryptographic update

This feature is an important change to the secure communication protocol. Cipher suites with the prefix TLS_RSA_ do not offer forward secrecy. These cipher suites are now generally deprecated by the industry. However, to support backward compatibility with older versions of XenApp and XenDesktop, Receiver for Linux has an option to enable these cipher suites. For more information, see Configuring deprecated cipher suites.(hyperlink to be added)

Multi-monitor layout persistence

This feature lets you save the position of a desktop session, and then relaunch it in the same position. This feature avoids the overhead of repositioning sessions at every launch. It empowers you to dynamically adjust and save the layout information across endpoints, thus optimizing the end user experience in multi-monitor environments. For more information, see Configuring multi-monitor layout persistence.

SoC SDK update

Customers who use the SoC SDK might be required to update the plug-ins for H.264-based session graphics.

V3 Authentication Protocol

“V3” authentication indicates the third major definition of a logon protocol to NetScaler Gateway that is supported by Citrix Receiver.

V3 is the standard logon protocol for NetScaler Gateway in combination with the “N-Factor” authentication policy framework that makes authentication steps and the associated credential collection forms completely configurable. Native Receivers can support this protocol by building on the Forms logon support already implemented for StoreFront. The web logon page for NetScaler Gateway and Traffic Manager virtual servers also consume this protocol using code shared with Receiver for Linux.

For more information, see SAML Authentication and Knowledge Center article NetScaler Authentication.

For more information, see Workspace configuration.

This dot release includes the gstreamer1 files.

The difference between packages that offer support for Web Receiver and those that support self-service is that the latter packages include dependencies required for self-service in addition to those needed for the Web Receiver. Dependencies for self-service are a superset of those required for Web Receiver, but the files installed are identical. 

If you only require Web Receiver support, or your distribution doesn’t have the necessary packages to support self-service then install the Web Receiver only package.

If your distribution allows, install Receiver from the Debian package or RPM package. These files are generally easier to use because they automatically install any required packages. If you want to control the installation location, install Receiver from the tarball package.
