Thanks Michal, that is a huge help. We're busy building an image for EL7 but it isn't yet fully finished, so we're still on 6.x for now. We're updating to 6.8 and then 6.9 in the meantime. Interesting that it still works for 6.7 though - I can't explain that. I have updated RemoteViewerSupportedVersions and restarted the engine and it works like a charm.
