I'm currently using Viscosity 1.7.2 (1402)

I am pretty sure the previous version I had was 1.6. But I don't know the minor version

I use 3 or 4 VPN connections simultaneously every day. I have about 10 connections configured.

Previously, I could click a bunch of connections (let's just call it "3" in this example) and the dialog windows for each would pop up, overlayed on top of each other. I could then log in to each in sequence.

NOW, when I click on more than one connection, only one dialog window will pop up. No matter how many connections I click to initiate. I can log in to the one that pope up, but the others will hang and a dialog will never appear. To resolve this, I must click the connection again to disconnect, then click it one last time to re-attempt a connection.

Summary:
* Old version: Could initiate multiple connections at once and log in in sequence
* New version: Can only initiate one connection at a time

A second regression is regarding saving of passwords. I never have Viscosity "remember password in keychain" because I am required to use a OTP. Saving a OTP is pointless. This was fine in prior version.

Now, however, the password from my previous attempt is saved.

Is there a formal bug report place for Viscosity?

Thanks!

Hi JDS,
New version: Can only initiate one connection at a time
Thanks for the report. This should now be resolved in the latest beta version:

Now, however, the password from my previous attempt is saved.
I'm afraid we're not seeing this issue. By password do you mean the Username/Password prompt, or a prompt for a password only (such as a key PIN)?

Thanks,
James

Awesome, thanks. I can wait for this fix to roll out to a production release.

Regarding the "saved password" issue: I can't reliably reproduce this, so I'm not sure how to advise on troubleshooting. I'd say just close this part of the request at this time as "won't fix" or similar.

Thanks,
JDS
