  • Support for UNIX sockets in the native client and in the UNIX servers
  • Both clients now warn when sending the password over a possibly insecure channel
  • Performance improvements in the Java client
  • The Java client now requires Java 7

  • Better keyboard handling in the native client on Windows
  • Slightly better keyboard handling in x0vncserver
