6 May 2025 New Direct Access gateway version (1.7.4) Share this message Direct Access gateway 1.7.4 introduces support for overriding the default Windows service account during setup, and resolves several issues. For upgrade instructions and a list of resolved issues, see Upgrading the Direct Access gateway installation Support for overriding the default Windows service account during setup In previous Direct Access gateway versions, it was possible to change the Windows service account only after the installation, and only interactively (on each Direct Access gateway machine). Direct Access gateway 1.7.4 introduces the ability to install Direct Access gateway under a non-default Windows service account. This option is available when using the setup wizard and when performing a silent installation.
