Dear community,

GNU Gatekeeper version 5.7 has been released.

Download: https://www.gnugk.org/h323download.html

This version has some important bug fixes, improves interoperability with other vendors and also has a few new features.

Bug fixes: - several severe crashes and a few memory leaks have been fixed

Improved interoperability with: - Lifesize endpoints - Poly's Microsoft Teams gateway - Polycom RealPresence Capture Server

New features: - You get a warning in the GUI / on the status port if one of your endpoints has an incorrect time setting and this password authentication fails. This makes trouble shooting a lot easier.

- Invalid TPKT packets (eg. due to network errors) now don't necessarily take down an otherwise healthy call. Use the new AbortOnInvalidTPKT=0 switch to enable.

- You have a new %{Vendor} variable for SqlAuth RegQuerys and LuaAuth

Full change log:

- BUGFIX(ProxyChannel.cxx) fix crash on non-standard H.245 Indication from Polycom RealPresence Capture Server - BUGFIX(ProxyChannel.cxx) fix possible crashes on non-standard generic information in OLCs - print warning message on status port when passwords get rejected due to wrong time - BUGFIX(httpacct.cxx) fix memory leak - BUGFIX(ProxyChannel.cxx) fix possible crash - BUGFIX(gk.cxx) avoid crash when terminating in the middle of program startup, set non-zero exit code so restarter notices error - return unused memory back to OS periodically - new switch: [RoutedMode] AbortOnInvalidTPKT=0 for more graceful handling of network errors - BUGFIX(gk.cxx) fix for running on Alpine Linux (needs updated PTLib, too) - don't start GnuGk if RTP multiplexing is configured, but we can't start the listener - new switch: [RoutedMode] MatchH239SessionsByType=0 to fix presentations with LifeSize endpoints over Poly's Microsoft Teams gateway - BUGFIX(ProxyChannel.cxx) make sure we don't set RTP address on multiplexed RTCP keepalive - BUGFIX(RasSrv.cxx) look at all tokens for H.235.TSSM - add %{Vendor} variable for SqlAuth RegQuery and LuaAuth
