Windows Admin Center Support

Windows Admin Center now supports secrets that contain machine name / IP address combination:

  • New user name will default/use a web password template only (Windows and AD templates are not supported)

  • Using the “Connect” button in Windows Admin Center, will not show secrets associated with the selected machine

    • Work around: Select the machine link to retrieve the associated secrets
  • Updating passwords will update the password in the current secret regardless of template

  • How secrets are returned:

    • Secrets with Host Name (As machine name)
      • link text --> IP (Host Name) --- Secrets will be returned
      • link text --> Host Name --- Secrets will be returned
      • link text --> IP Address --- Secrets will NOT be returned
    • Secrets with IP Address (As machine name)
      • link text --> IP(Host Name) --- Secrets will NOT be returned
      • link text --> Host Name --- Secrets will NOT be returned
      • link text --> IP Address --- Secrets will be returned
  • Session Recording of non-web password templates is not allowed. If an attempt to use a secret to log into an RDP session is made and the secret has session recording enabled, WPF will not allow the user to proceed and display the following message.
