Admin User locked out of Password Manager Pro
Hi, we currently have Password Manager Pro running with a locked out Admin user. ...ie. password lost ! We have the ability to login as a lesser user to retrieve passwords, but are unable to login as Admin. Is there an "Admin password Reset" procedure which I can follow? To add to my pain, the SMTP config doesn't seem to be working, so I cannot retrieve through the "Forgotten Password" feature. Any help would be appreciated.
Autogenerate Passwords
I was wondering if there is a way to setup the PasswordManager to Autogenerate Passwords so when someone requests a certain password no one knows it accept the person requesting it. And as soon as that person uses that password the PasswordManager automatically changes it. Thanks Craig

We are currently looking at adopting PMP. One of our requirements as a government organisation is that a product has been penetration tested by a third party company. Has PMP undergone this?

PMP 5.4 Eval - Shared ressources to what account.
Hi, We are currently evaluating PMP 5.4. So far its almost exactly what we were looking for. I have just one problem : I can't find a simple and quick way to see what users or user groups ressources or accounts are shared with. Is there a view that brings this info at a glance ? Thx in advance
Radmin
Hi, I was wondering if Radmin (Remote Administrator) is supported within PMP, or if anyone has managed to make it work using the auto logon helper? All workstations in our domain user radmin for our helpdesk staff to connect and manage them. It sure would be a great bonus if there was a way to configure a "helper" to enable an end user to connect directly to it using radmin while querying the account name in PMP. Thanks
ssh session from pmp to resource hangs

Windows Server - auto start PMP
Hi all, We have a number of our servers set to reboot each night. The server that is running PMP app for us is one of them. Is there a way I can have the PMP service start automatically once the reboot has completed. I notice the app starts, but not the service? Cheers, DP
Password changing
Hi all, I am new to PasswordManager Pro (for work) so please bare with me. I have had a question asked of me, can we reset the resource password (say server admin account password) remotely through PMP and the account password (on server) change. I have had a read through the help file and there was a section on remote password changing, however I am not sure if it will actually change the log on account password. We are using AD auth to access PMP. Also would you require the Premium edition licence??
Concurrent user issues
We have implemented PMP and it appears that there is a limit to only one concurrent user. I can't find anything obvious as to why this limit is in place or how to change it but need I to find a resolution as this just isn't a feasible limit. Any suggestions?
AD not authenticating after 5.3 upgrade.
Hello, I have today applied the 5300 patch from 5200. After the upgrade NONE of my users can log in against AD authentication. I have one user named root that is a local user and it can still log in fine. I can also still import users from my domain, but then when the new user tries to log in it just says invalid username or password. It is like it's not connecting to my domain on login, even though it is on import just fine. Any help would be GREAT, I have 30 users screaming at me because they can't
How to import security groups from AD?
Hi, I'll admit it, I am rather new to Password Pro Manager. I've been able to successfully import users from a specific OU within our AD structure. My question is, can "security" groups be imports based non user based groups? I need to create different resources (I'm this cases different departments within IT) and to lock it down to certain users. In AD it's controlled with Security groups and it would definitely make my life easier if I could reference AD groups as opposed to creating them manually
Login Problems
Hi, Just downloaded and tried it out, it is really nice to keep all the passwords safe in one place and allow only the people who need access to specific ones, with the history when the passwords were accessed. Only problem that we have is that our Active Directory users are in Arabic. So when the users are imported they are all gibrish, also they cannot log in either. Even if Active Directory SSO is activated. Is there any plan to make application accept data other than english for user names ?
[Feature REQ]: website autologin
Hello, I was wondering if it would be possible to request the following feature: A 1 click website login feature. We have a few "website" accounts, like forums, private sites, webstores etc. It would be nice if the username / password could be auto filled in the login form, so copy/paste would not be neccesary. Thanks! Tommie -Dutchview

Feature Request - Resource Creation using API
We'd like to consider using PMP to escrow the Administrator passwords of Windows desktop systems built using our standard build process. To accomplish this, we'd need the API to support creating resources (i.e. a write-only mode). Is this possible, or planned for the future?
Disabled / Locked out account
Greetings, I have a question regarding disabled / locked out users in AD. As far as our tests have shown, users that are disabled or locked out from AD, still have access to PMP. This proves a problem, as users cannot be deleted from PMP due to the audit log. So currently the only workaround is to remove all access rights granted to the user in question, however we dont like that :) So how does it look in regards of doing a check on the login, if user is disabled or locked out.. Kind Regards Jesper
Ordering in sub-category list
Just noticed that items in the sub-category list are not ordered correctly. Have not tested similar fields. It seems that although the list sorted alphabetically, items with names that consist of capital letter jump to the top of the list. eg AQQ Anchovy Apple Avocado Is this a known bug ? If so, is it scheduled for a hotfix ?
Feature Request: Access to "notes" field for non-a
When creating user accounts under a resource, there is a generous amount of space to add notes about that specific account. Unfortunately, only password administrators have access to see those notes field. Is there any way to allow anyone who has access to view the password also have read-only access to the notes field?
Mysql Permissions
On linux, our default installation was done as 'root' and the mysql daemon and all other PMP utilities are run as root. Is it possible to make PMP run as a user other than root? I know in other mysql installs, mysqld usually runs as the user 'mysql'. Any thoughts?

Sharing Categories
Is there a way to share password categories? I wanted to setup the categories for user personal accounts and share them out so the end user doesn't have to set these up individually. When we make this available to all users I would like to avoid a bunch of calls on how to use the system.
Problem while trying to change password.
Getting an error while trying to change password on server, tried with and without agent. This is the error. "Error occurred while changing the password" 1. Access is denied. 2.Try to use agent mode. I am an admin to the server in question. Thanks, Dave
Feature Request - Admin access to Personal Passwords
We would like to see an option where personal passwords are *automatically* accessible by the admin user without the user having to manually share them(selectable within general configuration settings). This feature more directly addresses the enterprise requirements needed by most companies of any size. This could potentially be handled in a couple of different ways. 1) There could be a hierachy of management where these passwords are viewable by that person's supervisor (best solution) 2) Probably
IMPORT AD
We have purchased PasswordManager Pro and I'm looking to import users from AD but I don't see how you can specify the domain to import from? The only domain in the drop down list is adventnet. How do I enter my domain? Any help or documentation on how to get that working would be great. Thanks
Password Management API
Hi, I'm just evaluating your product as a potential for our business. What we want to do is have a database of passwords, stored securely, that realistically no one knows. We use a program called S-Code VNC Manager to get into servers as this way the passwords are not stored in plaintext anywhere. I just saw this feature and it looks like you can do some sort of coding to get programs to request the password from your program. Am I thinking of this feature along the right line, or is this not how
Free edition
I'm trying to get PMP to convert to the Free edition to see if the limitations will work for what we need or if they are too limiting. I set the server date 2 months ahead and restarted PMP, but the license page just keeps saying: Trial Period expired. Restart the server to revert as Free Edition Is there a license file you can send that will convert it to the free version?
Can PMP use more than one LDAP server?
Hi, We are a large organisation split across multiple LDAP domains, and we're evaluating if we should use PMP. Does PMP have the ability to sync up users (or even just import) more than one LDAP domain? Or are we restricted to one domain? Cheers Terry MacDonald

Change Administrator password in Windows using ResourceGroup
Hello, I am evaluating PasswordManager Pro. I installed 2 PMP agent in 2 Windows server and want to use Resource Group to change local administrator password regularly. I tried to use Password Reset function in Resource Group. However, this function will try to change every password in Resource. So, If I want to achieve above objective, Does it mean that I need to create following resources ?

Problem upgrading from 4500
I installed the upgrade pack to go from 4500 to 4603, on my way to upgrading to the latest version. The update seemed to go ok, but then we were unable to log in to the web interface. At this point, I tried to use the updatemanager.sh script to uninstall the service pack, and it gives me the error "Some exception occurred during previous patch installation / uninstallation. Please contact support team." And I also get this same error if I try to install the 4603 to 4700 upgrade pack. After this,
performance
Are there any tuning steps that can be performed to increase performance? Our PMP system seems to be unusually slow just navigating. If the system is overburdened, an error will be thrown and the whole session will reset. It seems like it will eat whatever memory you give it, and not really improve any performance. Anyone else seeing these issues? Thanks
