Credential Manager for ProtectTools

Short description

Solution

 

 

 

Using Credential Manager Network Accounts option, a user can select which domain account to log into. When TPM authentication is used, this option is not available. All other authentication methods work properly.

Using TPM authentication, the user is only logged into the local computer.

Using Credential Manager Single Sign On tools allows user to authenticate other accounts.

USB token credential is not available with login to Windows XP Service Pack 1.

After installing USB token software, registering the USB token credential, and setting Credential Manager as primary login, the USB Token is neither listed nor available in the Credential Manager/gina logon.

When logging back into Windows, log off Credential Manager, re-log back into Credential Manager and reselect token as primary login, the token login operation functions normally.

This only occurs with Windows XP Service Pack 1; update Windows version to Service Pack 2 via Windows Update to correct.

To work around if retaining Service Pack 1, re-log back into Windows using another credential (Windows password) in order to log off and re-log back into Credential Manager.
