SQL Datasource Still prompting for password

Hello,

I'm having an issue with one of my RDM clients. I create a new Datasource for our SQL server, and I save the password in the settings. Even with doing that, the program still prompts me for a password when I try to open the datasource.

Is there a reason for this? And can it be turned off?

Thanks,
Mark

Hi,
What version of RDM do you use? Do you use the Integrated Security or a specific username?

I've tried 8.0.8, 8.0.11 and just today installed 8.1.

We using a specific username with password saved in the datasource settings.

Could you run a Help->Diagnostics to verify if the Support password saving is enabled?

Support local password saving has a X by it. How do I enable that?

You can change this registry key in LOCAL_MACHINE:

Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows NT\Terminal Services

DisablePasswordSaving = 0

I am still having this issue. When I change the registry it works fine, after rebooting the computer it goes back. Is there a more permanent fix for this?

This must be a policy by your company. Could you verify with your network administrator?

21 seconds.... That has to be the fastest reply in history. There is no GPO set for this. My co-worker and I just rebuilt our laptops with the same image and we are both having the problem. We have 12+ other users that are not having the problem, all in the same domain. Cold there be a local security policy set?

Hum, this could be a domain or local policy. Could you verify with GPEdit.MSC

Well... Turns out there is some type of local security policy set, the person who made the image swears the files are directly from our MSDN disk. I found the policy and set it to "disable" and rebooted, the setting stayed.

Windows 7 Enterprise
Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > Windows Components > Remote Desktop Services > Do not allow password to be saved = Disabled

Thanks
