Scheduled user logon report
Hi, When we create a scheduled report as in the picture below we only get a small report with the last logon/logoff time. We would like to see the logon/logoff time per user for 30 days. Is this possible? Thanks in advance. Regards, Joris

Old patches showing up
I am currently evaluating DC for my organization. One question is about the patch management. Many of my systems are showing up as Highly Vulnerable (some with as many as 60 needed patches!). I was trying to find out what was happening because SCCM says nothing about those patches and when I manually run Windows update off domain, it does not find those patches. These are patches from as far back as 2011 and 2012. I wonder if these have been superseded. I'm just wondering how I can known which is
Support for the latest Java Patch
The current Java 1.8 patch (update 66) has been out for 2 weeks and still isn't available to install with Desktop Central yet. Is there any ETA on the patch being supported?
KB3097877 re-release
Good Afternoon, We are experiencing the issue with Outlook 2013 crashing due to KB3097877 which was released Tuesday and deployed by Desktop Central yesterday. I see Microsoft has corrected the issue and re-released this patch, but with the same KB number. Will Desktop Central still download the updated version and recognize it as a new patch to deploy even though it has the same KB number? Thanks, Matt
Customized Software Installation alert
Hello Team, As now we have feature to categorize Installed software in multiple self-defined category, can you please provide these customization in software installation and un-installation alert mechanism as well, so we can decide which alert should I receive on mail. Currently we have only three options - All, commercial and prohibited. Regards, Sumit Singh
Agent Popup
Is it possible to set the progress bar to actually be representative of the current action. eg if downloading a file show the actual status of the download. At the moment it just keeps cycling through it showing no useful information. Also is it possible to show a custom message to the user from the configuration instead of just the deployment policy? It would be nice to tell the user this configuration contains an update to X and not just the standard message. Thanks Andrew
Desktop Central Setup
Hello All, Sorry for being such a newb, but I was wondering if someone could point me to some instructions on setting up the Desktop Central Client etc? I'm told that I could potentially setup the client install on each of my SMB Business Clientele machines (6 different LANs) and then use the "Web Console" to manage them all, regardless of the fact that they're all different customers and exist on completely different LANs. Anyone feel like doing me a solid and dumbing this down a bit for me? :-)
Installing/Upgrading AVG Business Edition
We are looking at upgrading our AVG Business to a new version. There is a script file and a .BAT file that the server creates with all the settings. I am having a problem running the .BAT in the Software Deployment screen. I am not sure how the .BAT files are run from Desktop Central, but the file calls the install and config file in the same folder as the .BAT. In another program we used to use to deploy software, all I had to do was set the /s /c arguments for cmd.exe that was run on the PC after
HTLM5 Remote Control
We recently updated Desktop Central to the latest version and have noticed some differences in how the Remote Control tool is working. 1. HTML5 version doesn't seem to put anything on the screen to let users know a technician is connected like previous versions did? 2. We have one technician that is getting a different Remote Control Tool from the other three technicians. He gets the older version with the tool bar across the top of the screen and the floating Quick Launch button. Are these known
Upgrade your Windows XP to SP3 and 2003 Server to SP2
Hello, Desktop Central uses digitally signed binaries to help Windows authenticate the identity of the creator and allow them to run automatically. Owing to the recent vulnerability in the code signing certificate algorithm, Microsoft has announced the deprecation of the previous algorithm (SHA 1). Effective January 1, 2016, Microsoft will not trust certificates signed with SHA 1 algorithm. We have upgraded our agent binaries by signing them with the latest algorithm (SHA 2). Since the latest

Unable to update server SSL certificate
Hi, I have a support ticket on this already, but while I wait for them to organise a convenient time to contact me for remote support I thought I would post here in case someone has already had this issue. My SSL certificate expires tomorrow and I have already obtained a new one from StartCom - it's already installed on various servers and working just fine. However when I try to update DesktopCentral it complains that Enterprise CA certificates are not supported, and to obtain a 3rd part one. This

Remove Java Sponsor crapware when installing/updating Java
When using DC to push out Java JRE's, can we please add the "SPONSORS=0" option to both new package installs and the patch scan deployments? That way we can have DC manage the Java security updates but won't have to worry about ask.com hijacking everything. See here for details: https://www.java.com/en/download/faq/disable_offers.xml
User Login History
We have 1600 Windows PCs in a non-AD joined system using DC to manage and patch the Windows PC. If we enable Windows Audit logging, is DC capable of generating a report by user for each PC listing the user name and login activity. IF not, is there a solution that DC would allow us to distribute that could collect that information? Mike
Downloaded Binary that is Not Applicable....?
Hi, Our Desktop Central server download patch 300541 and 300542. The file downloaded (for 300541) was 300541-cdbxp_setup_4.5.1.4003.exe One of our security products flagged this is a malicious binary (based on reputation). I searched to see if any of our endpoints require patch #300541 or #300542. Not only does no endpoint report needing this patch, but the Desktop Central UI doesn't even have any result for these patch IDs (it's as if they do not exist). But....I have binaries in my patch database
Deploy Package after Agent Install
Looking at setting up a package that would deploy to a PC after the agent has installed. It would be a "Welcome Package" once agent is installed the package would be deployed to the PC. Is this possible.

Patch Management IP Scope
I haven't been able to find an answer to this in any KB. We have quite a few remote offices and have set up IP Scopes so the agents communicate to the appropriate server. We have end users who travel between offices (global company) when they arrive in another location and receive an IP from that location is the agent smart enough to switch to that remote office server and when they return to their office switch back? I assume as long as the IP Scopes are setup correctly this is how it works but

Support?
Has anyone out there had any success whatsoever with support? I have been trying to resolve an issue and gotten no call backs, on chat they end after 60 seconds of "no response" Check out the time stamps - I got a whopping 60 seconds to respond to the tech before he closed the chat session?
MDM Exchange profile deployment on Android
Recently I noticed that you fix the issue in deploying an exchange profile on an android device. The issue was a problem with password field that if I left empty in the profile, on the device I received a credential error and I can only delete or retry. Now it works, but only if the device is connected in the same LAN, if I am outside the company I didn't receive the forms to fill the password on the device. Thanks Regards Stefano

On the GUI web-interface it sayd: "Please wait...Establishing remote control connection on -'computer name' ". On the target PC you get something like:

HTML5 viewer ultra slow
Hey! Today's patch introduced HTML 5 viewer for remote controlling computers, but it is ultra slow, it needs 5 seconds to do anything. Remote cursor is slowly following my mouse, and when I click on anything, it needs 5 seconds to accept that click. both computers are good, i3, ssd, 4gb ram, and connected by 100 mbps link, so it is not hardware issue.
