Removal of VNC Servers and Viewers
Hello, We have several different versions of VNC Server and VNC Viewer that we need to have removed from all computers in our environment. I know for sure there are both TightVNC and UltraVNC servers that make up the majority of our environment. Is there any surefire way to remove the servers silently using desktop central? All silent switches plus built-in uninstallations fail or hang. Thanks ------ Aaron Johnson Windows Systems Administrator Fleetpride Inc.

How to move all the managed computers to a new desktopcentral server
Hello, we recently decided to set up a clean desktopcentral server since the old one was running on a server 2008 essensials. We decided to not go for a "clone" but a clean setup - but the next problem is to find out what the best way to deploy the new agents will be, or could we use the allready installed agents and deploy a script on the old desktopcentral server, or do we have to manualy install all the agents?
Software Templates missing
The Software Templates options in the Software Deployment Tab is missing. Only the "Packages" option is available. Can someone please assist?
Secondary IP address for Remote (Traveling) Users
I've read in a few forum posts and in some documentation that its possible to assign a second IP address to Desktop Central for the agents to connect to but I can't find where this is possible except under the Server migration settings. We need to have one IP address setup for internal LAN clients and a second public IP address programmed for our "Road Warrior's" who very seldom connect directly to the LAN. Is the Sever Migration Settings page the proper place to put this information and if not

Patching deployment
Hi, We are trying to patch our machines on the network through Patch Management and have setup a deploy patches after hours with automatic reboots. Our issue is what happens to laptops that are taken home overnight and reconnected to the network in the mornings. Will they start to deploy the patches on the laptop and reboot or will they just not get the patches. TIA Damien

Professional to Enterprise Upgrade for Distributed Server
We've upgraded our license from Professional to Enterprise in order to use more of a distributed server set up. I was wondering if I need to update all the agents already installed or if they are getting their information from the Remote offices I've setup and assigned their IP addresses to? Computers are showing up under the remote offices I've setup and the DS information is correct but I can't find anywhere in the local Agent logs where it says it's pointed to the DS for updates. All the remote
No Credential Specified
Hi, I have been experiences issues lately with SoM and installing software, either by pushing out configurations or using the Self Service Portal. If I go to SoM > Computers I get the following: No Credential Specified The password of the following domains are not specified. Update the password. As far as I understand, the password needs to be the same as the Administrator account, which is the password which we log in to the Desktop Central server. Can someone confirm this please as I cannot
How do you rate TPA patches' severity?
Hi, I would like to know how you rate them because when I take the example Foxit reader, which is a PDF reader so very much used, you rate the update 7.2.8 with a low severity, while when I checked that release's changelog I noticed many serious risks: Brief Acknowledgement Fixed a security issue where the application could be exposed to the Font Parsing Use-After-Free Remote Code Execution Vulnerability.

Upcoming Auto Patch Deployments Report
Hello, Is there a way to generate a report which shows upcoming Auto Patch Deployments?

Thanks

packages stored?
Hi everyone, I'm actually testing Desktop Central with a Remote Branch and I got a question : When you deploy an application to a remote branch, the package is (I guess?) downloaded only one time by the distribution server before being deployed onto specified computers. So, where are packages stored on the distribution server? Thanks for your advices ! Regards
Automatic approval of specific patches
Hi, I've created an automatic deployment configuration for Flash, JAVA and browsers, so that the clients are scanned on a daily base and updated immediately with new critical updates.However, as far as I know, the automatic deployment doesn't do anything for as long as these patches are not manually approved. Am I wrong or is there a way to circumvent this? I don't not want to auto approve ALL the patches automatically.
Ideas on deploying patches to freshly imaged systems.
I was curious if anyone uses DesktopCentral to do this? Our desktop support team uses SCCM to image/deploy new systems and re-image systems. The current method of deploying patches to these new systems is creating a task sequence and deploying a group of updates. This is time consuming however since that group of updates has to frequently be repackaged to add new updates. Until that is done it leaves a mess of patches that need to be manually installed after the system is imaged. We would like
Help determining unprotected machines
In dealing with RMM software, I notice they all have A/V lights on the virtual dashboard. I need the same from Desktop Central and I presume I have to write a query report that tells me which machines have no software of a category I named "anti-x". Is there an existing way to do this? If not, what would the query look like?

Hi, after installing the Windows 7 convenience update KB3125574, DesktopCentral shows 43 missing updates for our Workstations. Should i manually delete them, or will there be a chance that DC mark them as superseded in the future?
Feature Request - custom tagging
We frequently need to locate a machine in DC knowing only who the primary user is. It would be nice to be able to tag machines with multiple, searchable tags - such as #John #Accounting #Basement.

Action Log Viewer shows installed yet pc not in inventory

Batch or script file to get Windows info
I want to run a powershell or bat file to get info about each machine. The script will get system info and write it to a text file on the network. The intent is to find the specific version of Windows on the machine along with the hostname of the machine and write it to a place where it can be easily accessed on the network. Here are the commands I have tried as PS and as bat and as command line within DC and all of them fail. I can run them on the local PC thru CMD or within PS without using DC and
Desktop Central Agents (9.2.041) not installing from Group Policy after upgrade.
I am not sure if anyone else has run into this problem but I am stuck on a problem with deploying agents through Group Policy. Previously I pushed the agents through Software Installation in Group Policy with out any problems while using version 9.0. I have a folder structure setup with the software listed for the my different sites. Since upgrading to the current version (9.2.041) the agents will not deploy. I tried to run the installer from the network and locally which brings me to a prompt that
Schedule a Reboot of Computers requiring a reboot

I want to force a reboot of those machine in the early hours - I know I can schedule reboots but there are no filters to identify the machines that match my requirements Any advise? Andy
Best way to uninstall KB3035583 (GWX) with ME DC
I've already successfully deployed the Reg tweak (and dozens of other DC configurations and deployments, not a total noob) to disable the Get Windows 10 (GWX) updates, per the Microsoft KB. However, I also need to remove the entire KB3035583 since it is nagging our users still (even though it's disabled and won't allow the upgrade). I have been unable to do this, since this KB is not listed in my ME DC patches for uninstallation. I've also tried a simple one-line batch with the WUSA command that
