v5.3?

Scott White_5 — Thu, 15 Jan 2009 19:55:27 GMT

Noticed on the SIM homepage that 5.3 is supposedly released, but the download link still goes to 5.2SP2. Is 5.3 imminent(next couple weeks) or should I go ahead with the 5.2SP2 upgrade I have planned?

Thanks,
Scott

The most significant change is around credential management and biggest new feature is privilege escalation (primarily for users of *nix systems who disable root access and use something like sudo).

FYI, 5.3 is available for download for some reason.

There just isn't any documentation about it on the site that I can find.
