That fixed it! Thank you!

This just started happening today. I've completely uninstalled and re-installed the application 3 times :( I'm not exactly sure what XML document it would be referring to since I used the SQL Data Source.

Yes we use Integrated security (Windows Domain/Active-Directory Environment)

Was wondering if there was a way (when using SQL DataSource) you could get a GUI report or all the sessions and a list of the security groups each session is a member of (and also mark whether the memberships are direct association or inherited).. OR maybe put that info in the dashboard tab when clicking on a session once to select it. When managing a lot of folders/sessions, it's hard to remember and keep track of what permissions are set to what.

MS SQL

I just noticed this feature and when I click on it, nothing happens. I'm running Enterprise edition 6.6.0.0

No worries, I'll just continue to use the session script tools. I didn't know you didn't use the ping.exe. Thanks for responding though!

For the built-in Ping session tool, is there a way to append the "-a" parameter to try and resolve the hostname? For example:

ping -a $HOST$

I've created a session script tool to do just that but I figured it'd be nice to not have duplicate session tools with only slightly different parameters.

Thanks for the fast response!

Yeah what I was talking about was using it for RDP. I wasn't aware that it would try my windows credentials first. I guess I just need to leave the credential fields blank in the session properties of the RDP?

Where I work, we are all on active directory and we use our Domain credentials to log into everything. It would be nice to have (if microsoft gives you API access to that info) a checkbox to "use windows authentication" so it would try the username/password that you used to log into windows. You see this feature a lot on Microsoft SQL server logins.
