MobaXterm use ssh passwords for server authentification - windows

I want to create a MobaXterm user session to access a server via ssh.
I use a username and password for authentication. The option using the ssh key is unfortunately not available to me.
Furthermore, access to the server takes place via a jump server which is also protected with a username and password.
Under "Settings > Configuration > MobaXterm passwords management" I enabled "save ssh keys passphrases as well" and set "ask" for saving session passwords.
In the credentials section I created both credentials for accessing the servers with the requested username, password and as name the ip addr of the server.
How can I configure my user session to use these credentials to connect to the servers?

Unable to access server database with datagrip

I've updated my datagrip to 2021.3.1 and now I'm having an issue where I can no longer access the database from a server.
in my SSH Configurations I filled it in with the correct Host, Port, User name. I've chosen the Key pair as my Authentication type.
The issue I'm having is that when I try to test the connection a popup comes and asks me to Log into the server but it asks for the password for
the id_rsa but I'm using a different ppk to access the database which is already specified in the SSH Configurations

Can I SSH with a UID instead of a username?

So, I'm working with a software product that deploys as an OVA. They don't generate new SSH keys upon install, so every VM deployment has the same keys. And they allow key based login.
The admin user's uid is always 4001. The admin username is decided at the time the OVA is deployed.
Is there a way to connect via SSH specifying a UID on the remote system instead of a username? :)

Credential Provider - how to skip SAS?

I implemented my own custom Windows credential provider following the Windows SDK example which should let a remote application connect to a server and perform logon automatically.
The problem is: the SetUsageScenario event is not called until a user presses the SAS combination (Ctrl+Alt+Del), therefore my credential provider isn't able to automatically perform the login until that happens.
How does RDP do the login automatically without me pressing Ctrl+Alt+Del and logging in automatically? How do I do the same with my custom credential provider?
SAS can be skipped for Console session only if You turn it off manually in the registry/policies.
RDP session always skip SAS and direct You to enter credentials.
Moreover modern RDP client asks for credentials prior to establishing connection to remote server. It serialize your credentials and send them to remote server. On server authentication is done using this serialized data.

Does WMI read user information from windows credentials manager?

I wanted to connect to a remote Windows cluster using WMI to read its node information. User credentials are stored in Windows Credentials Manager. But, WMI does not seem to read user credentials from Windows credentials manager.I tried with WMI Explorer tool and with the below code (C#). Any idea how to get it work?
{
ConnectionOptions Options = new ConnectionOptions();
//Options.Username = Username;
//Options.Password = Password;
Options.Authority = "ntlmdomain:";
Scope = new ManagementScope(#"\\WindowsCluster\root\cimv2", Options);
Scope.Connect();
}
I get access denied error if I do not pass username and password. I tried with all possible authentication modes including default and packet privacy.
As far as I know it does not use Windows Credential manager. You will need to fill out username and password when connecting remotely. Also, if you are connecting to that machine with a domain account then you will need to add the domain name after the colon in the authority field. Otherwise if its machine creds then don't define authority at all.
Hope this helps.
