Supporting Windows Admin Center

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

  • The new user name will default to using a web password template only (Windows Admin Center does not support Windows and AD templates).

  • When you click the Connect button in Windows Admin Center, it will not show secrets associated with the selected machine.

    • Workaround: You can select the machine link to retrieve the associated secrets.

  • When you update passwords, the system updates the password in the current secret regardless of the template.

  • How the system returns secrets:

    • 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

  • WPF does not allow Session Recording for non-web password templates. If you attempt to use a secret with Session Recording enabled to log into an RDP session, WPF will prevent you from proceeding and will display the following message:
