Session Control Plugin 1.3
Hello Nick, I am sorry to hear that your having problems with my plugin. Please enable Diagnostic Logging from Settings tab and Diagnostics subtab. Doing so PC Monitor will start writing log details to a file called trace.log that can be found in the PC Monitor installation folder. After it's enabled please try to browse the opened files by nick and then copy and paste the resulting log file here in a reply or in a personal message, this way I will be able to understand more what's going on. Thank You, Paul.

How can I view desktop screens of PC
Hello, The error is pretty straight forward, it's trying to connect to Mobile PC Monitor's server and for some reason it fails. From the problematic PC open a browser and try to navigate to this url. If you get any error then it means that the SSL trust is broken and you need to fix your system time and check the problems with the SSL trust or if you can't connect to that webpage then it's a network problem. If you get a webpage that says: Then it's a positive result and everything should work. Cheers, Paul.

Session Control Plugin 1.3
The problems should be fixed now. Check first post for the change log. Seems that I forgot to include os version 6.1.7600 in my code and that I had some parsing error in the filtering but everything should work now. digbyp: The plugin was working fine, the COMPUTERNAME$ are local sessions which also show up on the Windows Session Manager from mmc, if you want I can rule them out from the output. Also the MAC address you specified it actually represents the IPv6 address of the local computer (The same address that your computer resolves when you ping it) and it will show the proper IPv4 address for computers that don't have IPv6 addresses. Also it was only showing you the local sessions because you didn't have any other session opened, did you look in the session manager to confirm that my plugin was missing something? You will need to wait until the download link gets approved. Paul.

Session Control Plugin 1.3
Hello Johnni, My plugin is 98% based on the openSessions script from your plugin so I can tell you for sure that if something is not working on my plugin you will have the same problem with the script. I am installing a SBS 2011 and 2008R2 right now to perform more testing. Paul.

Session Control Plugin 1.3
Hello Cesar, I am sorry to hear that it didn't work well, can you please explain what actually happened? Did the plugin display "Server OS Not Detected" on the computer details output or it just didn't show up anything at all. If it doesn't show anything please enable Diagnostic Logging from Settings tab and Diagnostics subtab. Doing so PC Monitor will start writing log details to a file called trace.log that can be found in the Pulseway installation folder. Please copy and paste any errors that are shown there in a reply over here so I can check it out. Also do you have Windows 2008 Service Pack 1? Please type the following command in run: "winver" and reply with the Version and Build numbers, Windows 7 SP1 is (6.1.6001). Thank you for helping me improve my plugin. Paul.

Dual-boot computers
Well technically one license = one operating system monitored. It would be very difficult to handle like this, also the operating systems have unique identifiers that are used to tie your computer to your account so that no conflicts will occour. I don't think it's a good idea. If you have many dual boot computers why not consider purchasing a subscription, it's cheap and it converts your existing 3 computer licenses into premium so that you can enjoy all the subscriber only features like server modules, screen view, webcam view. Also have you tried some of the avaiable plugins ? Check them out here.

Session Control Plugin 1.3
Hello , Session Control allows you to view active sessions on Windows server machines and their associated files. No commands are currently implemented but I have in plan on adding a few like (Close sessions, List Shares, Delete Share). Please take your time and read the 'readme.txt' file as it explains everything you need to know about installing, using the plugin. My release is open-source bound by no license. That being said you can freely modify, distribute, claim as your work, sell and / or include in your copyrighted material as long as it doesn't breach Pulseway's license or terms and conditions. Download Link: PaulCsiki.SessionControl.zip. (Version 1.3). Changes Since 1.2 Added support for Windows Server 2012+ Changes Since 1.1 Fixed a bug where newer operating systems would not be recognized. IP address that resolve to a hostname will now print out the hostname along with the IP address. Any feedback and plugin ideas will be appreciated. Screenshots:

Speed test from pcmonitor mobile app.
This can be similar. Remember that speedtest requires flash player so an automatization is out of the discussion, however you can calculate the latency in other ways too. Similar Thread.

How can I view desktop screens of PC
You can do this from the Systems tab, and check "Enable Screens View". You can perform these changes to your computers without having to manually edit them on each computer with PC Monitor Dashboard. Cheers!

Predefined package for install (Enterprise Clients)
Something like that yes, but PC Monitor has it's own system. You can enable it from Account Details from PC Monitor Manager.

Predefined package for install (Enterprise Clients)
At this moment yes, but after two-way authentication is implemented into web client he will be requested a code that you will receive via email.

Other than email notification
Hello, You can have a plugin that reads the temperatures using the same dll reference Mobile PC Monitor uses and have your plugin mimic the functionality of PC Monitor however when he detects unusually high temperatures, send an email and suspend the computer. Everything is possible in programming . Paul.

Security Plugin 1.4
Thank you for your feedback. The changes you requested will be done until next monday. Paul. Update released, check first post.

Predefined package for install (Enterprise Clients)
Or just ask the user to install the application and input your username and password then you can configure with Dashboard. Again, two-way authentication is a great asset to this process because it would secure your account so even knowing your username and password the user can't make any changes to your account.

Wake on lan working on and off?
PC Monitor relies on the IP address that the computer had during it's last runtime. So if your IP Address changed when the computer with PC Monitor was offline he won't know you changed your ip address, thus Wake on Wan will fail.

Security Plugin 1.4
I believe I can add a timeout for two minutes to see if the status doesn't change back to it's original state then send a notification. Would two minutes be enough for your antivirus product to start up?

Dashboard Set Settings Lock
Then maybe apply this change to a group? Changes to all computers usually are bad, password is an exception.

PowerOfTheShell Plugin 1.5
It's a great idea, however I think that including them in the packages on a "examples" folder would be better because if you happen to add 50 example scripts the client who just wants to try out the plugin will end up with a pretty big list of scripts to execute , not that it would be bad tho. Paul.
