.. title:: What's new in Kasm 1.5.0 What's new in Kasm 1.5.0 ================================ Features ---------- - Implemented `Deployment Zones <../guide/zones/deployment_zones.html>`_ to provide administrators more control of distributed deployments. The system will prefer to provision sessions on Agent's in the same Zone. Images can also be restricted to certain Zones. - Added automatic Kasm create, resume and URL forwarding via a **/go** URL to support seamless browser isolation deployments for use with redirection and policy route techniques. Calling the **/go** URL e.g (**https://kasm.acme.com/#/go?kasm_url=wikipedia.com**) will load or resume the user's default Kasm Image, then launch the browser to the desired page specified in the **kasm_url** query argument. - Added Docker Exec Config to Kasm Image definition. Administrators can now define docker exec commands to be executed upon Kasm creation and/or resuming via the **/go** url. - Added User Settings to allow users to assign a default Image, and disable **Tips** when launching a Kasm. - Agent now reports and kills zombie kasm containers. - Google Chrome Image now available by default. Google Chrome is also now used in the Kasm Desktop instead of Chromium. - Improved connection speed when loading a Kasm. - When viewing a Kasm, ctrl+W is now caught in the native browser and passed to the Kasm. This prevents users from accidentally closing the native browser's tab to Kasm, and instead closes Kasm browser's tab - The `Login Banner <../guide/login.html#login-notice>`__ can now be configured via the global settings. - Added a configurable `Login Assistance <../guide/login.html#login-assistance>`__ link that is displayed on the login form. - Added automatic check for updates. Bugfixes --------- - Entering an incorrect password may have resulted in two Access Denied error messages - Some session credentials expired prematurely leading to failed connections to sessions - Under certain conditions, the Downloads list would not populate in the Control Panel
