Desktop Central Custom Group / Dynamic By IP range
Good Afternoon, I was wondering if it has been considered the creation of Custom Groups based on IP range. For example I very often setup a functino of groups as a /24. Or we assign resources doing function X to 4 diffrent Class 24s. I would think from a custom layout you would want to to have the option of 1.) CIDR 2.) Range 3.) List Most likely with a later or considered report function around the same catagory. Thanks!

Using Audit Plus to find Services running with Administrative Privileges
We have a requirement to keep track of Services running under a user with Administrative privileges (rather than just a service account). Does Audit Plus allow you to report these? Thanks in advance for your assistance.
AD Audit continually crashes daily. Same error every time. Support has been unable to resolve.
The same message appears in the wrapper service every time, and AD Audit Plus stops running. Support has connected in twice and supposedly resolved the issue. One found it was a database issue, the other a jar file needed updating and lock file deleted. Issue continues, server requires daily reboot. This is a fresh install of the latest release, build 4630. ERROR | wrapper | 2014/04/12 06:09:25 | JVM appears hung: Timed out waiting for signal from JVM. ERROR | wrapper | 2014/04/12 06:09:26
Read udf_date in c# and maybe update it.
Hi there, I try to write a little tool in c#, that reads out the udf_date1 (we use it for documentation of last update and reboot of servers) and maybe write it back to database with the new date. We use SQL-Server and i can find no correct calculation for rendering the correct date or setting a new date. Maybe you can help me and show me how to read / display / write the correct value for this udf_fileds. Thx from Austria, Wolfgang
Keeping office, Title and departments up to date.
Hi, I'm currently looking to use ad manager plus in my organisation. I may have come across something that may prevent us from using it. If we use your tool we would be looking to use it for AD user creation and automated bulk update of user attributes. We keep a central database of Title, office and departments feeding in from various other systems. It does not appear there is anyway to automated the population of the Title, office and departments information? We are a big organisation and would

CMDB plugin if you already have ServiceDesk Plus
Hi, we have an installation of ServiceDesk Plus in production with more than 500 network assets (over 2000 counting their components) already populated into the CMDB. Each network device has been registered with the hostname as name of the asset. I was wondering if i can make this available in OpManager, perhaps with the new CMDB plugin, without upsetting the CMDB already present on SDP. It would be great if OpManager would link to the proper device on the CMDB based on the discovered name. Furthermore,

Managing default Support Groups (formerly Technician Groups) that have been propagated through all sites in all accounts.
Build 8206: When saving an MSP Support Group for "All Acounts" and "Default Settings", the group is propagated to all sites (so if we have several hundred sites in 13 accounts we get several hundred new groups). First question is this: In build 8206, if I continue to manage the technicians in the default settings groups from the "Support Groups" screens, are those changes propagated through all the site groups that were originally created? Second Question: We also have some old MSP groups (previously
Incomplete fields in XLS export format
I have an open call with support about this issue but wanted to see anyone else was experiencing this problem. I noticed after the latest update that whenever I export a report in an XLS format with a certain number of attributes selected that a number of spreadsheets fields are incomplete with information. This only happens with the XLS format. The information is complete with all other export formats. Unclear on the turnaround for this problem but this makes that export selection useless to

Thank you, Kevin
Lenovo seem to have implemented CAPTCHA and have broken the warranty lookup
I started to get warranty lookup errors on Lenovo PC's. I went the manual warranty check site (http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/product-service/warranty-status/default.page) and they have added a CAPTCHA at the bottom. I'm guessing this is what is hosing the Desktop Central lookup?
SSH, Credential Details and OpManager
How does OpManager execute SSH commands? I see under "Add Credential" that OpManager has a "Login Prompt". None of our systems use a login prompt (SSH), or Linux in general, normally an ssh connection passes the username with the connection (ssh dingbatca@linux_server) When testing this, I found this in my logs, on my Linux server. "Did not receive identification string from 192.168.1.192" This states to me that OpManager is not passing a username with the ssh connection. What am I doing wrong?
