You can know the OpenSSL or LibreSSL version by `xrdp --version` command that compiled with xrdp. ## Other topics Pulseaudio modules has been removed from xrdp source tree since it is actually independent and not part of xrdp. The repository has been moved to: https://github.com/neutrinolabs/pulseaudio-module-xrdp If you want to use audio redirection, make sure install the module separately. ## New features * Add TLSv1.3 support #1193 ## Bug fixes * Ensure unmount redirected drive on fatal X error #1140 ## Other changes * Show more helpful message if xrdp-dis failed #1206 * Pass pulse socket name via environment variable #1198 * Fix xrdp's log path in man page #1168 # Release notes for xrdp v0.9.7 (2018/06/29) ## Deprecation notice x11rdp has been removed from xrdp reposiory and stored in the separate repository. Checkout [x11rdp repository](https://github.com/neutrionlabs/x11rdp) if you still need x11rdp. In most cases, [xorgxrdp](https://github.com/neutrinolabs/xorgxrdp) can replace x11rdp. ## Bug fixes * Fix endianness detection on ppc64el #1082 * Fix a bug xrdp file copy slow #1112 #1132 * Copy the PAM session environment for the reconnect script #1120 * Accept fullpath for DefaultWindowManager, ReconnectScript #1147 ## Other changes * Add PAM support for Arch Linux #1078 * Show OpenSSL version to '--version' CLI option #1096 * Separate x11rdp from xrdp repository #1104 * Support sesrun start xorgxrdp sessions #1108 * Show configure summary when configure is done #1126 #1134 #1137 * Less spit on the console when sesman starts #1142 * Fix memory leaks #1146 * Separate rc script for FreeBSD into xrdp and xrdp-sesman #1153 * Improve documents and helps ## Known issues * Audio redirection by MP3 codec doesn't sound with some client, use AAC instead #965 ----------------------- # Release notes for xrdp v0.9.6 (2018/03/26) ## Compatibility notice Exclamation mark (`!`) has been removed from comment out symbol of config files.
