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.

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?
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.
I'd like to get connected username of each Network Drives. I found it's easy to print out local computer name rather than logon username for network drives connections. Does anyone have idea of this? Thanks.
Set wn1 = Wscript.CreateObject("WScript.network")
MsgBox(wn1.UserName)
You'd have to enumerate the sessions on the server side if you want to know the login name for shares connected with explicit credentials. The client doesn't store this information. For all other network drives the login name is the name of the current user (CreateObject("WScript.Network").UserName).
I need to connect to SQL Server using Windows Authentication with different user account in JDBC. This is the code I am using:
static final String DB_URL = "jdbc:sqlserver://IP:port; databaseName=xyz; integratedSecurity=false; domain=abc";
Connection con = DriverManager.getConnection(DB_URL,USER,PASS);
And here is the Error:
com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerException: Login failed for user 'abcd'
Like described in question given by #konstantin-v-salikhov you need to set integratedSecurity=true if you actually want to use Integrated Authentication (and in that case it will autenticate as the user running the application). You also need the sqljdbc_auth.dll file to be installed. When you make the actual call you shouldn't provide any username or password, just do something like this:
Properties info = new Properties();
Connection con = DriverManager.getConnection(DB_URL, info);
If you want to use SQL Server authentication (like you are doing in your code sample) you need to enable mixed mode authentication for your SQL Server instance.
Merry Christmas everyone !
I've installed Team Foundation Server 2010 with advanced configuration but I left the settings as default (like Service Account: NT AUTHORITY\LOCAL SERVICE and others)...
All good until when I typed http://localhost:8080/tfs and there it asks me to provide username and password.
What is the default username and password ? I didn't provide any username and/or password during configuration.
I typed as my Windows account name but it doesn't work.
Help me please...
Thank you

TFS uses Window's accounts for its permissions. If you're logging in on a workstation setup, rather than one linked to AD then remember you need to specify your machine name as part of the username, for example MACHINE\michaels.
In order to setup new projects you will need to first start off using an administrator account - if your normal username isn't a Windows administrator, then login using your admin username and password (you can then grant permissions to your normal account. You can also use the Windows security groups on the machine to add yourself - there will be a local group called "Team Foundation Administrators". MSDN has a list of the Windows groups you can configure.
it is the windows login , password and u can set it in the administration panel also .
UPDATE - mine was ashutosh-pc\ashutosh and my windows password
You have set your service account to LOCAL SERVICE. Please change this to NETWORK SERVICE. The login box you are getting is not to login TFS, but to get access to your machine resources. The LOCAL SERVICE account does not have enough permissions to operate TFS.
If you don't have NETWORK SERVICE, then use a regular windows account.
See for more information the TFS 2010 Install Guide.
Yeah definitely it works using your windows account, but in my case I have my hotmail email account linked to my windows.. so, I just used my email address and the password for this, I am sharing an screenshot, this is the firs default page after logged in.
