KB4022719 - Causes Internet Explorer to print the blank pages.
Hello, Greetings from ManageEngine Desktop Central. End users may report a blank page print out of contents that opened in a Internet Explorer frame.

Following: https://www.manageengine.com/products/desktop-central/help/configuring_desktop_central/importing_ssl_certificates.html I'm trying to add a certificate from our Microsoft domain CA. It gives me a .cer and .crt file When I import the .crt file it asks for a .key file. What do I need to do to get the .key file? Are there alternate instructions when using a Microsoft CA?
Lmit Technicians to Managing Dynamic group
We are ready to add our Desktop Support Technicians to Desktop Central, and what I've found is I can't just assign them to managing a Dynamic Group, as I desire. I want to limit their ability to deploy software, or updates, to prevent them from ever deploying to servers on accident, or from rebooting servers etc. I've created Dynamic Groups by OS type (which I expected to find a "desktop" category built in, but have not. And I can ask them to only deploy to these groups, but I want to limit their

How to secure remote desktop management in Desktop Central ?
I have a question, how to secure remote desktop management in Desktop Central. How does an installed agent on remote user computer verify that it is connecting to the correct Desktop Central server? To verify that, I performed the following test I created a Desktop Central server that was available under the public IP address [1.1.1.1], and at the FQDN desktopcentral.example.com [1.1.1.1], On client computers I installed an agent that communicated with the central desktop server. Everything worked
Vulnerbility Scan finds issue
Hello, Our DC Server is being detected as having a ClickJacking vulnerbility. Does Manage Engine have a fix for this vulnerbility? Description: The remote web server does not set an X-Frame-Options response header in all content responses. X-Frame-Options has been proposed by Microsoft as a way to mitigate clickjacking attacks and is currently supported by all major browser vendors. Resolution: Return the X-Frame-Options HTTP header with the page's response. This prevents the page's content from
Forwarding Server for All WAN Agents or Just Mobile Devices?
I like the idea of the forwarding server a lot, but does it support all WAN agents or just "mobile," e.g. iPhones/iPads or Android phones/tablets? Asked another way, can it support Windows clients as well? https://www.manageengine.com/products/desktop-central/secure-communication-of-mobile-users-using-forwarding-server.html I would much prefer this over exposing Desktop Central directly to the internet. Thanks!
Setup DesktopCentral Distribution Server without domain admin rights
So we're trialing DesktopCentral, and the product is fantastic until I ran into this issue when trying to setup a remote office distribution point on a candidate machine. I was promptly halted by the install wizard with it stating "it must have domain admin to perform this action." Why? Assume that the account that desktop central is using has local admin on any machine I would be deploying the distribution servers to, and any workstations that would be deployed to. Why does the distribution server
Certificate Chain not Valid
Hello, We are using desktopcentral (version 91113) with mdm integration (with the Forwarding Server version 90016). On the destkopcentral server we have a certificate signed by an internal CA (local only - not third party CA). This certificate is trusted by the domain. On the forwarding server we have a certificate trusted by Start-SSL, public side of MDM. Since beginning of december (build 910099 I suppose) we have an error showed in the desktop central server interface : Certificate Chain not Valid.

md5 checksum on download page
I have big problems with downloading the file ManageEngine_DesktopCentral_64bit.exe. The file is often defective. When I download the file several times, it has always another md5 checksum. Only when I invite them over my rented vServer (CentOS7), the checksums are identical. Is it possible that on the download page https://www.manageengine.com/products/desktop-central/download.html or under http://archives.manageengine.com/ an md5 or sha1 checksum is indicated? It could be used to verify the files

disable windows update locally
I saw it and ill be darned if i can find it again. However i saw where i can block users from using windows update locally on their computers using security settings in DTC but i cant find that setting in DTC. Mind pointing me in the correct direction? I thought it was under configurations > security policy > user> but i cant find it.. I am pretty sure i am just looking past it. Thanks!!!
Need explanation of this, if possible....
Why does this happens. Please explain.... service.exe executes dcconfig.exe executes cmd.exe executes reg.exe reg.exe then creates a binary file in c:\program files\desktopcentral_agent\logs called "dcagent.reg" It appears you are pulling down the registry values for your agent as a backup or as documentation for support (if needed). Please confirm. Also, is there any way to stop this? We are trying to tighten down reg.exe.
Desktop Central - Desire to manage computers by domain
Hello, It would be very useful to us to have the ability to manage computers-by-domain. I recognize that I can "sort" computers by domain, but I would like the ability to add technicians to Desktop Central but only allow them to manage computers: > By Domain and as a subset of that top level distinction > By Operating System (ie, servers -vs- desktop) We have 10 Desktop support persons that have separate responsibilities by location. So for instance 2 Desktop Support persons, work with desktops

Block Executable - Upload CSV file of known bad HASH
The new feature from our recent upgrade appears very beneficial. https://www.manageengine.com/products/desktop-central/help/inventory/block_executables.html?dci Sadly the very first thing Security & I thought of was not possible. Security & I had this brilliant idea of uploading a CSV file of all known bad executable HASH values. Known Virus, Malware, Cryptos, ect. ect. Sadly the only way to block a hash is to upload the actual .exe. Would it be possible in the future you could add this feature?

RADIUS for SD+ or Desktop Central?
Do you support RADIUS for 2 factor (RSA) authentication to either of these systems? Google didn't help much on this topic (I fear that it's because there's no support for it). I am most interested in it for Desktop Central, because it carries the ability to manipulate various systems on the network and a compromised technician's account could be extremely problematic.
