Saving admin login + password on the console ?

HI,

I assume you have to use SEC to deploy.  That being said..  It's not in the product, but you could use a tool such as AutoIt to automate this.  Below is some example code that if you save as "SECAutomateDeploy.au3" for example.  Download and install AutoIt (http://www.autoitscript.com/site/autoit-script-editor/downloads/ ) You can build an exe from the code below.  If you run this exe you'll get a AutoIt icon in your notification tray to show it's running and everytime the SEC deployment wizard is run and gets to that credential page it will autofill it in and click next for you.  In theory you could automate the GUI for the entire wizard but this will start you off.  

Something you may wish to try.  You could probably build a more elegant script but I've just thrown this together as an example.

Hope it helps.

Regards,
