In Windows XP, your login options must be set either for classic login, or for fast user switching and logon screen to be enabled to use your fingerprint to log on to Windows. To change this go to Control Panel, select User Accounts and then click Change the way users log on or off. If your Windows screensaver is password protected, the fingerprint capture window will now appear next to screensaver password dialog during resume. You can authenticate to your screensaver pass- word prompt with your enrolled finger.
Password Management
OmniPass provides an interface that lets you manage your passwords. To access it,
You can view the credentials stored for any remembered website by highlighting the desired resource under Pass- word Protected Dialog and clicking Unmask Values.
Should a password be reset, or an account expire, you can remove stored credentials from OmniPass. Highlight the desired resource under Password Protected Dialog and click Delete Page. You will be prompted to confirm the password deletion.
The two check boxes in Manage Passwords govern whether OmniPass prompts you to authenticate or directly logs you into the remembered site.
OmniPass will overwrite an old set of credentials for a website if you attempt to use Remember Password on an already remembered site.
The exception to the above rule is the resetting of your Windows password. If your password is reset in Windows, then the next time you login to Windows, OmniPass will detect the password change and prompt you to “Update” or “Reconfirm” your password with OmniPass. Enter your new Windows password in the prompt(s) and click OK and your OmniPass "master password" will still be your Windows password.
OmniPass User Identities
Identities allow OmniPass users to have multiple accounts to the same site (e.g., bob@biblomail.com and boballen@biblomail.com). If OmniPass did not provide you identities, you would be limited to remembering one account per site.
To create and manage identities,
U s i n g t h e F i n g e r p r i n t S e n s o r
To add a new identity, click New Identity or
To delete an identity, highlight the identity you want to delete and click [Delete Identity], then click [Apply].
When you delete an identity, all of its associated remembered sites and password protected dialogs are lost.
To set the default identity, highlight the identity you want as default and click [Set as Default]; click [Apply] to ensure the settings are saved. If you log in to OmniPass with a fingerprint device, you will automati- cally be logged in to the default identity for that OmniPass user. You can choose the identity with which you are logging in if you login using "master password".
Choosing User Identity during Login
To choose your identity during login, type your user- name in the User Name: field. Press [Tab] and see that the Domain: field

Exporting and Importing Users
Using the OmniPass Control Center, you can export and import users in and out of OmniPass. The export process backs up all remembered sites, credentials, and any enrolled fingerprints for an OmniPass user. All OmniPass data for a user is backed up to a single encrypted database file. During the import process, the Windows login of the exported user is required. If the proper credentials cannot be supplied, the user profile will not be imported.
