Jamie, perfect!

The if-else configuration option (which I just confirmed worked for me) will help smooth out the transition until all of our client software is updated to use the latest Python bindings.

P.S. I would like to point a few people to this discussion thread, so please advertise here when remote access to the mail archive is available again.

Thanks.

The main difference between the two is that the new knob allows READ-level commands to be performed without authentication but with encryption and integrity. The old knob tried to allow unauthenticated READ commands, but was incomplete in that regard.
