Password Expiry Date in the past but still says valid!!
Hi all, We have some passwords in our system where there is 1 resource with multiple accounts within it. We add all passwords manually and dont use auto logon or auto change.

Background Colour varies behind the logo
Previously, I uploaded a PNG logo with a transparent background and it worked great. With a recent update the banner background colour changed to a dark grey and my logo looks like rubbish. I would update my logo to work with the darker background but the logon page will has a light background - I don't have a logo that will work in both situations. This is from our logon page: And this is the same logo after logging in: I'd like to see the banner background colour consistent - and ideally customisable.

Differences between on-prem and cloud version
Hi, I was wondering whether there were any plans to allign the two version so they have the same set of features? Currently we would like to have both release management and cmdb but it does not seem to be possible.

Hi, We use AD Self Service to keep passwords in sync between two of our domains (separate forests). A subset of our users also have accounts in the second domain. In previous versions, staff could log in against the primary domain and AD Self Service would attempt to update their password in both domains. Now accounts that exist in both get an error "Multiple accounts are mapped for the same login attribute" and they have to prefix their username with their domain. Is there a way to replicate the
Migrating resource groups\accounts to new instance of PMP
I am currently using PMP installed on a onsite server but have now created a new PMP instance in AWS. I am now trying to export the existing groups\account in a format which I can then import easily into the new PMP. However I also want to include the user group permissions as well as I have 300+ groups to migrate and I do not want to have to add each group individually to the user groups setup in the new PMP. Is there anything which will make this easier? Note that the onsite PMP is running build

Hi, We have installed the desktop central client on a PC in a workgroup that isn't on our LAN. the troubleshooting tool shows that it can see the Desktop Central Server and the Notification server.

Link new sdp server to exisiting mssql server
Hi, we are updating all our servers to server 2019. Now I would like to link the new sdp server with a read-only user to the live database until we are sure that all attachments and images are moved.

Patching LibreOffice results in removing the old version but NOT installing the new one, "not applicable" - but it is?
One of my users today complained about the disappearance of LibreOffice Calc. I had launched a series of updates on her machine that included getting LibreOffice to 6.2.8 Several operations followed including the removal of the existing version I have checked the configuration outcome and it did not apply 6.2.8 as "not applicable". Except it is applicable, as I manually installed it later. The user had several applications open, and the installation complained about needing to close Adobe Creative

Geo-fencing: Do not restrict distance
Right now in Desktop Central MDM one may add a GeoFence of up to 1KM. It would be great if this restriction could be removed. We have users who carry mobile devices across the state and would like to be able to expand the region to cover the state. Would also like to be able to warn after more than just one day, as users are sometimes out of state but for short periods of time. Say warn the user after 3 days, enable lost mode after 5 days, enable full wipe after 7 days. Just seems the whole GeoFencing
