Thoth Gateway version 1.3 available

There is a new version of the Thoth Gateway, a mod_plsql replacement for IIS, available for download. The latest version is 1.3.

It contains the following bug fixes and enhancements:

• Bug Fix: Issue with parsing client IP address: Added exception handling to prevent error when parsing client IP address with invalid format.
• Ignore additional request parameters: Certain tools and frameworks may dynamically add additional parameters to a request, which causes the corresponding PL/SQL call to fail, since these parameters are not defined in the procedure signature. As of this version, the gateway will now retry the call after dropping (ignoring) any parameters that cannot be found in the Oracle data dictionary for the procedure being called.
• Support for Oracle proxy authentication (and Single Sign On) via dynamic username substitution: Oracle proxy authentication, combined with Integrated Windows Authentication in IIS, allows you to pass the end-user's identity from the client to the database session (so the function USER will return the end-user's Windows username, with no login required). This is useful in an intranet scenario where users are defined in an Active Directory domain and use Internet Explorer to access the PL/SQL web application.

For existing installations, simply overwrite the existing PLSQLGatewayModule.dll file in the "bin" folder with the latest version from the downloaded archive.
