Use NordPass as password manager

Hello,

The closest for support for NordPass I guess would be: https://forum.devolutions.net/topics/38688/why-is-credential-redirection-a-deprecated-feature#172087

(Based on Davids, comment on this)

But it is not integrated into RDM, if it follows the old "Credential Redirect" it will open a browser page, in which you can use the browser plugins for the Password Manager to fill the form.

The form Data will then be sent back to RDM which will utilize this as the credentials

But this will become available from: 2023.1.0.0 (As of the linked post)

Hello Michael Beaudin,

Thanks for the great news just prior to weekend :)

And thanks to you, Michael, David and the rest of Devolutions Team for fitting in this request and making it available on such short time

Why is Credential Redirection a Deprecated feature?

Hello David,

Currently we are having our old (Deprecated) in LastPass Credential Redirect -- Do you know if the 1Password one, were built differently?

As it does not recognize that I'm trying to fill the form - only the web extension when clicking on it, but then it suggests all on the "127.0.0.1"-domain

If they are technically equal, is there any tricks in RDM I can do to get 1Password to actually know which one to use?

With LastPass I got it to work only showing 1 single entry, which was the one that should be used for that particular credential

As I will try to work with what I've got until a possible new entry type is made available :)

When do you think 1Password will be back as an option for a Credential entry ? I am on 2022.3.29.0 (latest), and 1Password entries are not showing anything to edit anymore.

They work (so something must be still in the system doing the job) .. but the UI shows just the name.

(...)

If you're talking about the Credentials Redirect -- a workaround is to Duplicate an entry using this, and alter the duplicate with correct info

Thanks for the clarification David :D

I'll keep an eye out for the new Credential Entity Type <3

Well the one I'm referring to is the one that LastPass were used with, but we are switching to another soon (Big Surprise...)

The thing is that I have tried using the native one and it seems to work just fine, but our IT Dept. and I for that sake, does not see a great idea in storing the master passwords, as the thought of doing this were to separate IP/Service Info from the Login Credentials -- as otherwise we could just type in the creds directly into Credential Entities in RDM and just select them from there.

Using the password is also not good either e.g. typing my MasterPassword for my 3rd-party manager in RDM

Also we were able to with that Form and LastPass to give access to servers for everyone that needed, but keep hold on the credentials, so if I am allowed to access X server with Y login which gave me restrictive access I could do so, but someone else might have Z Login which could be elevated.

I do indeed see the thought of why to make it native, for convenience and to skip steps like that form.

But making it that stupid also separates RDM from having data about User/MasterPasswords, so In case of a leak for our RDM DB, only the IPs etc. is compromised, but not the credentials as well -- other way around, if our Password Manager is compromised one with said info would not know where to go...

So what I'm trying to say is that we (my company) actually liked the "stupid" form-login <3

I don't think the native ones should go away, as I think others like that and as I said is smart and can be useful - just not in our case

As for confusion, couldn't it be a "new" credentials entity type - called Login Box or something, and if special needs having a dropdown in the settings part to choose which manager is used - for the form to present better for that specifically manager, and have a none or other, setting as well - which would go perfectly with managers/systems that are not supported.

If this were removed, we were possibly forced to go into our Manager Vaults to get the passwords instead of this :(

We are currently duplicating the old Entities that are still marked as Credential Redirection Deprecated, and make new ones from here as a workaround

But from your answer David Hervieux, it seems that you are already getting the idea and where I come from, which I hope you are able to either just restore or make it even better <3

IvanMarshall, I think what he meant by confusion were to have both the native method and the login-form method

Hello everyone :)

I have been using Credential Redirection and setting this up, and then our IT department gets around to update RDM-Server

Now the Credential Redirection is marked as Deprecated, and only usable if we workaround this by duplicating the old ones, as this is no longer being able to be selected

I have checked and tested with the other options, which either requires me to save my Credentials (User/MasterPass) to the Password Manager within RDM (Either local or DB)

or requires me to write the master password manually each time I need to fetch user/pass for servers I'm accessing

Compared I do not see this new option is a better solution, as to keep Server Info and Sign-In Info Separated?

Why did the Credential Redirection get Deprecated?

Would it be possible to get this as a feature again - as we would really like to use the ease of use to fill out using a password manager, but also wants to keep the data separated

We are not using Devolutions Password Manager

For those not knowing what this is as it is no longer a selectable option

When trying to access X server, it would await for browser window to open with 2 fields User / Password form, this could be filled manually or using your favorite Password Manager to fill these

and send the filled info back to RDM

It were also possible to add a field-ID which most managers can be configured to differentiate on so it can show the correct credentials each time rather than giving you a list of 20 different possible related

In case you don't know why it were deprecated, but have related input, agree/disagree - please write, as I have searched Google and these forums for a long time for an explanation

Best Regards,

Niclas
