The third point release of Univention Corporate Server 4.1 – UCS 4.1-3 – is now available to download. It includes various usability improvements, important security updates and all errata updates that have been published in the last three months. One of the main focuses of this release is on the further extension of the App Center such as offering software vendors the possibility to provide Docker-based apps.
With this release it is now much easier to migrate conventional apps to Docker-based apps. This allows vendors to offer their apps in both formats via the App Center. In addition, we improved the Docker integration of the App Center in UCS.
One more added value for app vendors: From now app vendors can define an individual brand design for the app appliances of their solutions which are generally available as ready-to-use, virtual images. Besides, a fast demonstration mode can now be activated for these appliances that allows very quick appliance tests with pre-defined configurations. Via the provision of Univention Appliances software vendors can now also offer product tests on their websites without having to bother about the operating system.
Several import security updates have been integrated into UCS 4.1-3, among others for libvirt, OpenSSL, QEMU and Samba. Furthermore, security updates in the standard LDAP ACLs and the UMC server have been integrated.
Very interesting for large IT scenarios, for example educational institutions managing UCS environments with tens of thousands of pupils and teachers: From now a domain join of additional Samba-based Active Directory domain controllers with more than 100,000 directory service objects is possible.
One further improvement: Configuration settings for the database management system MySQL can now be defined via UCR variables. Settings of the database system can thus be adapted more easily to the apps’ needs.
And last but not least it is now also easier to translate UCS in different languages. A French translation has already been completed and is currently implemented. A Portuguese translation is not yet planned.
