Below are changes to features that you will see in version 9 of Sohodox:

Sohodox Server

Sohodox Server is a service which runs in the background on the machine on which Sohodox is installed in Server mode. The Server needs to be running for Sohodox Desktop Client and all other modules including the Sohodox Mobile App to work.

Upgrading Sohodox on the server machine

By default the Sohodox Server is configured to listen on port 7733. If you change this port while installing the upgrade setup then you must ensure that the firewall is configured to allow connections on this port.

Upgrading Sohodox on the client machine

While installing the upgrade setup on the client machine, you must enter the URL of the machine on which Sohodox Server is installed along with the port it is listening on. For example, if Sohodox server is installed on a machine named MACHINE1 having IP address 192.168.0.2 and listening on port 7733 then you can enter the URL of the Server in the setup as…

http://MACHINE1:7733

OR

http://192.168.0.2:7733

Login

Sohodox Login Manager

Sohodox Login Manager lets you specify the location of the Sohodox server. It also lets you control when and how often Sohodox Desktop Client and other Sohodox Apps should ask you to login before allowing access.

Logout behavior has changed

Starting from Sohodox version 9, users will not be logged out of Sohodox when they close the Sohodox Desktop Client. This is done so that the Sohodox Apps that are installed on the machine keep running even when Sohodox Desktop Client closes.

If you would like to change this behavior, you can do so in the Options dialog in the Sohodox Desktop Client. You can configure Sohodox to…

* Always logout

* Never logout

* Prompt before logging out

Auto-Login & Clear password options moved

The auto login and clear password options that were available from the Options dialog have now been moved to the Sohodox Login Manager

Folder Monitor

Folder Monitor is now renamed to Local Capture Folder. Everything else remains the same. You will not need change any configuration. Local Capture Folder will continue to monitor the folders that you had already configured in Folder Monitor. To add to this, the folders being monitored by the Local Capture Folder will appear in the folder list displayed when using the Send To feature to send a document to Sohodox.
