Jessica M in Secret Server
Hi Cal,

The purpose of the KeepAliveMonitor is to prevent the IIS application pool from recycling or timing out. I would recommend configuring your IIS application pool to not recycle or time out (see the following Knowledge Base article: http://support.thycotic.com/KB/a56/changing-iis-to-not-stop-worker-process-in-iis-70.aspx), so the KeepAliveMonitor process is no longer necessary and you will no longer receive these error messages. The KeepAliveMonitor feature can be turned off by going to Administration>Configuration within Secret Server and changing the setting for "Prevent Application from Sleeping When Idle" to "No" under the General tab.]]> Fri, 24 May 2013 13:44:45 GMT http://www.thycotic.com/forums/messages.aspx?TopicID=576 Database setup error [1 reply] last message by Jessica M avatar

Jonathan,

Various features of Secret Server require sticky session due to storing some user information in memory of that server. If the user were to be hitting different web servers at a time, that memory would be inconsistent between the two servers.

We currently do not have a specific timeline on roadmap to change this, however I have opened a support ticket with our product manager for you to discuss and to get a better understanding of your needs.]]> Fri, 10 May 2013 09:49:03 GMT http://www.thycotic.com/forums/messages.aspx?TopicID=572 Web password filler for Sonicwall GUI [1 reply] last message by

Kevin in Secret Server
Hi Jason,

Thank you for your feedback. I've captured your feature request for our team.

In the mean time as a work around, you could change the "User Account Options" under Active Directory User Synchronization" when configuring your domain synchronization to a manual enable/disabled mode. When set to "users are enabled by default" Active Directory users are enabled when they are brought in, however must be manually disabled when the account is no longer active.

However, I understand that can be tedious to manage user enabled status for everyone, which your feature request is trying to resolve.

Peter - we will soon be rolling out a customer feature request system that will allow you to vote on items. We aren't building it ourselves (R&D already has so much to do!!) - we are just integrating another service that will allow feature request suggestions, discussion, status updates on feature requests and voting.

Thanks for your feedback on feature requests - it is really valuable and always appreciated. Hopefully we can meet face to face again at a European show later this year.]]> Wed, 17 Apr 2013 17:56:03 GMT http://www.thycotic.com/forums/messages.aspx?TopicID=544 Desktop client : launchers ?

Kaitlin in Secret Server
Easily Manage and Secure all your Windows local administrator passwords

Use discovery to quickly find all your local Windows administrator accounts – import them into the Secret Server vault (even if you don’t know the current password). Then set a schedule (30, 90 days etc.) for regular password changing and never worry about those passwords again. Whenever a sysadmin needs a password, they just come to Secret Server to find it. Using Discovery Rules allows all of this to be automated.

Register for our upcoming Webinar on Thursday, March 28th 2013 at 11:30am EST (requires active support). This will be the first of a new Webinar series that will happen on the 4th Thursday of each month. Change your email preferences to receive updates about these upcoming webinars.

These webinars will also be recorded so you can view them after the event or share them with your team members. Each Webinar will have two engineers speaking about best practices, features, security and general problems you can solve using Thycotic products. If you have specific items you would like to see covered, please email your Account Manager.

Thanks Josh. It wasn't enabling. Something happened to web.config.

Joshua C in Password Reset Server
Morning Ricardo,

There is nothing special that needs to be done to those users for them to be able to reset their passwords off the network. As long as the Windows Login Integration was installed on the machines with the correct URL address then everything will work just fine. If any of them are returning 404 error try re creating the Windows Login Integration Installer by going to the your PasswordResetServerURL/CreateConfigurationFiles.aspx and installing the client again. Also they can still use the tool by simple browsing to it online.

Product Owner has confirmed that this is on roadmap - it will be an option under "Users" to automatically manage and create these folders. I will post when we have an expected release date for this.

One option in the meantime - if you want to create a large number of these folders initially would be to use the XML import (under Tools) - this is an easy way to create lots of folders.]]> Mon, 18 Feb 2013 15:48:08 GMT http://www.thycotic.com/forums/messages.aspx?TopicID=551 Bug with new web password filler <?> [2 replies] last message by david c avatar

david c in Secret Server
Hi Nick,

When developing the Web Password Filler we had a choice when it comes to partial versus complete matches. We could only show the full matches, thus prompting people to make new Secrets when they already had Secrets. Alternatively, we could show both full and partial matches, and potentially show too many.

We opted for the second option. However, they should be sorted first by their relevance - that is, full matches should appear higher in the result list than partial matches. Keep in mind that 'full match' may mean something different to you than it does to the code depending on your precise scenario.

For the duplicate option you may want to open a support ticket so that it can be investigated fully.]]> Fri, 15 Feb 2013 15:53:07 GMT
