I may have been too quick to reply. It might actually be working now. Not sure if I was doing something wrong but it may actually be working. I'll provide an update if I find out otherwise.

Thanks for the response . Unfortunately that is not working for me. When I do it from the command prompt, it still opens under the current corp user account. If I do it using option 2, it continues to ask for the credentials. My suspicion is that it's because the networks are untrusted from each other and the lab domain credentials are not recognized as valid credentials. It was a great suggestion though. It would be nice if there was an option to type in the AD credentials using integrated security or with another option to manually enter domain credentials.

I like the feature of using integrated security to connect to a SQL data source. However, this is limiting to our group. What we would liike to have is a way to use a different domain account to connect to our data source instead of a database login. Is there a current way to do this? We are connecting from a corporate domain into a lab domain that don't have any trust established.

Hello, I know that this post is coming in long after the last one, but our group is looking for RestAPI access to configure sessions among other actions in RDM. Is this a possibility now. I saw that some things have been done recently in Devolutions Server, but looking specifically at RDM so we can use Ansible modules to interact with the RestAPI for automating most actions in RDM.

That's the problem. If I don't check that box, it never attempts to fill in the password. It just highlights the word Password next to the field. The id for the field is "password" as discovered using developer tools for the web page.

To provide more information, the web page is to an Avocent console server. We have had sessions to these work for us in the past where the credentials get passed automatically and is auto submitted. It's just been lately that this has not worked.

This may be related, but I'm attempting to log into an embedded web browser session and the credentials appear to be passed except I get the following error:

Web Browser Notification

The password couldn't be filled. The field isn't secure. Please verify your settings.

This is with Google Chrome. Is there a setting somewhere that will correct this behavior? I never used to have this issue.

Denis,

Thanks for your reply.

Actually, I believe I have found a work around which is to use SSH connections with serial port redirect instead of telnet. It's working perfectly fine this way. To provide specifics in case someone else runs into this, we are using some ZPE console servers and the devices we are connecting to are defaulted to use 115200 for the console port. I don't have this issue when connecting to 9600 bps devices and like I said, works perfectly fine if I use SSH instead of telnet. I am suspecting something changing from the previous 2021 build. Given that our organization is pushing for better security, this shouldn't impact us a lot going forward.

I recently upgraded to 2021.1.30.0 and now when I connect to a remote telnet session to a serial port on a device, I get the following:

ONIE:/ #

ONIE:/ # ??#??$???2???? 38400,38400????'????XTERM-256COLOR??

> ??"??????!????

>

The switch serial baud rate is 115200. This does not occur on version 2019.2.24.0 and also didn't happen on versions earlier than what I'm using right now. I noticed more options between these two versions for the session so maybe there is something in those settings. Can someone help me work around this issue until it is resolved please?

I'm having an issue with using a credential entry with an SSH session I have to a Dell PowerConnect 5548 switch. I am still prompted for a User Name: after it attempts to log into the switch. I don't have this issue with other switch models, so it's something specific with this model. We have a bunch of these and it would be nice if I can get it to auto login. Telnet works fine. It's something about SSH that requires you to enter the user name twice. Could something be changed to allow this to happen on these switches?

I was getting NLA errors in the terminal. I had to uncheck that option to get the session to connect. It's working now.

Then it has to be some other setting for my RDP session that won't allow it to connect. It tries to open the session but then fails.

I'm actually using Private Vault credentials through Private Vault search. However, in the linux version of RDM, you cannot type in a Private Vault Search string which may be why it's failing.

Never mind. I figured this out. I had to edit the SSH session, in SSH Shell, under Advanced, set interactive authentication in terminal to true. Is there a reason why this isn't the default setting? Seems like it should be unless I'm doing something wrong.

I have created an SSH session in version 2020.2.0.0 and I get the following error when I try to launch the connection:

Disconnected

ERROR: FAIL_PERMISSION_DENIED

Code: -3

Is there anything special I need to configure to get an SSH session to work?

With the latest version,RDM doesn't crash. However, from the SQL datasource, I am unable to launch an RDP session. It's possible that it may be the way it is set up that is not supported since I am using a credential repository to launch the session.

It always happens when I click the session. I don't get a chance to click open session as RDM crashes.

Here's what I got when starting from the terminal:

(RemoteDesktopManager:5795): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: 15:59:59.926: g_signal_connect_data: assertion 'c_handler != NULL' failed

(RemoteDesktopManager:5795): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: 15:59:59.965: g_signal_connect_data: assertion 'c_handler != NULL' failed

(RemoteDesktopManager:5795): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: 15:59:59.971: g_signal_connect_data: assertion 'c_handler != NULL' failed

(RemoteDesktopManager:5795): Gtk-CRITICAL **: 16:00:00.169: gtk_tree_store_iter_has_child: assertion 'iter->user_data != NULL' failed

I have connected to an existing SQL datasource and when I attempt to launch or even select an RDP session, the application closes. I'm running Ubuntu 18.04 with all the latest updates. Is this supposed to happen? Creating an RDP session in the local datasource works fine.

I just installed the linux preview and so far it looks good. However, I have a question about the preview. If I connect to an existing SQL database, should I be able to open a session in that datasource? So far, when I attempt to open anything, RDM closes unexpectedly without error. I can create and open an RDP session just fine so far.

I just saw this and wanted to add that I am creating a session to connect to a Dell PowerEdge R840 server iDRAC and I have the username and password being filled in, but it doesn't log in automatically. I have to press the Enter key to get it to go through. I tried both [SUBMIT] and [ENTER] but neither works. I would be willing to work with someone to get this to work if possible.

Just noticed that there have been requests to run this native on Ubuntu instead of having to work around using Android. We have tried this and so far, this is unsuccessful and probably won't work for the following reasons:

• We need to be able to run PowerShell scripts to launch menus we have built

• We need AD credentials to be passed through so that RDM loads specific connections based on security settings per user account

• We are scripting the build of sessions in RDM via PowerShell

• We need to pass through credentials to launch connections and perform resets against a vCenter environment.

the Android route isn't an option for us for these reasons. The other problem is, even if there was a native Ubuntu option, it still probably wouldn't work for us unless we changed our scripting to Python, which may or may not allow us to build the same GUIs we have built using PowerShell and Winforms.

The main reason we are even considering this is so that we can conserve resources, reduce licensing requirements, and have a stable platform to use for connecting to our training solutions.

Hello,

We are wanting to know here at Dell if there are plans to build a version of RDM to run on Linux, specifically Ubuntu. If so, when will it be available? If not, would you consider a build for Ubuntu or other Linux desktop distros?

Is there any way I can get a copy of 13.0.18.0 please? I had some scripts that were working on it, but someone accidentally updated to 13.5.3.0 and now the scripts are not working as they were before.

Thanks for looking into this. That doesn't sound like it would work for our purposes but I have found a work around by using TeraTerm Pro sessions. TeraTerm supports the functionality we are looking for and just took some minor configuration changes to work. Now we have horizontal scrolling and don't have to buy licenses for SecureCRT.

any update on this one?

Hello,

I have recently upgraded our VMware environment from 6.0 to 6.7. In 6.7, you have a choice of using the HTML5 client or the standard web client. I set up a web session in RDM to connect to the HTML5 client and when opening that session, I get a prompt to "Remember my choice" for the protocol handler dialog box. I click "Yes" and then I get the VMware login screen for the vCenter. I have to check the box to use Windows session authentication, which works fine. What I would like to have is a way for login to be automatic and not have to do this manually. This request is mainly for our instructors who will need to possibly do this repeatedly during a class. Unfortunately, 6.7 no longer has a thick client to make this easier. Unless there is something already in RDM, could someone consider adding this functionality? Thanks.
