Check for password expiration on unlock

We have users who do not reboot/log-off very often for various reasons. Since they do not reboot often but do lock their workstations, it would be helpful for the client to check for password expiration on unlock. Without a reboot or log off there's nothing…

A user who deletes a directory tree by accident will have to salvage all data in subdirectories one by one. This can be time consuming and highly inconvenient. Enabling the OES client to work in a recursive way on directory trees will facilitate this…

Assuming that there will never be an update to a client for Linux, how about implementing a lighter weight solution that provides the few things a straight SMB/CIFS connection doesn't such as the Kanaka client for Mac OSX does?

Rebranding term 'OES Network' in Log-on Screen of the OES Client

We would like to change the standard networkname 'OES Network' in the term 'Logon to OES Network' from the OES Client. I think this should not be a great challenge. Thanks for voting.
