SGE Standalone 5.4 question?

rei

Hi,

We use SG Enterprise Standalone 5.4 to secure our laptops with a generic pre-specified POA login (we also have an override account we use) we give out to the user. Passthrough to Windows login is disabled.

I understand the certificate for login is created once the user logs in locally. In this case they login to a domain and the profile is then cached locally onto the HD of the computer. If a user forgets their domain Active Directory password, we can reset it for them, but once they login to the SafeGuard-protected computer, it also asks them for the "old" password (that was cached the last time a successful login was made to Windows) ...

...is there any harm in hitting "cancel" and having SafeGuard generate a new certificate to match their updated AD password to allow local login? I am assuming there should be no ill effects if they don't use this AD domain login to login to the POA. This is in a situation where the user has completely forgotten their previous password and can't type it into SafeGuard.

    Hi, I am trying to set-up and use Safeguard v5.40.0.152 in stand alone configuration, the documentation refers to the ability to be able to create to create POA access for POA logon as mentioned in Chapter 13 of the Administrator help.

    As mentioned the the post above v.5.50 allows POA User accounts, can anyone confirm if these accounts are applicable to Safeguard in Stand alone config?

    Thanks,

    Chandresh
