marinhd Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 Would love to have the ability to send the customer an executable which auto populates the username/password, enterprise server address and pre populates the config with specific monitoring information.

Administrators Paul Posted February 24, 2012 Administrators Share Posted February 24, 2012 Well you can do this via registry patches. It would require some custom application that can parse and unparse some encrypted xml data which on execution will take your data from the xml configuration file and write it to windows registry. Now this is possible to be done however I can't do it these weeks. If nobody offers I will eventually write it myself however I don't think it will happen too fast. Why not enable two-way authentication, give them your username and password, and tell them to write it down inside the manager application. After this you can modify the configuration via the Dashboard application. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marius Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 We are looking at ways to do this either distributing an exported configuration or use an enterprise server computer policy manager that will configure the clients automatically (auto discover feature) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marinhd Posted February 28, 2012 Author Share Posted February 28, 2012 Best would be if you could give it to an end user who just needs to run and install. No options. So even the most tech challenged could do it. That way it would be very easy to distribute. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marius Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 You can create the user account, use PC Monitor Manager to configure the account and all the monitoring settings, export the config file and send it to your user. All he will have to do is to install PC Monitor and import the config file. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Paul Posted February 28, 2012 Administrators Share Posted February 28, 2012 (edited) 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.

marinhd Posted March 3, 2012 Author Share Posted March 3, 2012 But knowing the username and password would allow them to log into the web client correct? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Paul Posted March 4, 2012 Administrators Share Posted March 4, 2012 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marinhd Posted March 5, 2012 Author Share Posted March 5, 2012 You mean Google Authenticator? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Paul Posted March 5, 2012 Administrators Share Posted March 5, 2012 You mean Google Authenticator? Something like that yes, but PC Monitor has it's own system. You can enable it from Account Details from PC Monitor Manager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marinhd Posted March 19, 2012 Author Share Posted March 19, 2012 So using the unattended install option I could create an Install.com file which references the installation file with the swtches... Package it in an autoextracting zip and away we go... This may be possible with iexpress.exe which is built into windows.... Will try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
