      @scottalanmiller said in MeshCentral "locking remote user out of desktop": @Dashrender said in MeshCentral "locking remote user out of desktop": @DustinB3403 said in MeshCentral "locking remote user out of desktop": @Dashrender said in MeshCentral "locking remote user out of desktop": @DustinB3403 said in MeshCentral "locking remote user out of desktop": @scottalanmiller who still uses screensavers. . . . . . Versus just a blank screen? Isn't the effect the same - a locked system? No, a screensaver actively uses resources to operate. A blank screen is off. Plus Cmmd+L locks the screen, no need for a screensaver to do that for you. the screensaver also has a 'blank' mode which has an associated timer... If the user set it at 1 min, I'm sure it's about security with them, not some stupid pipe drawing program.... so I'm back to my original comment. blank screen/screen saver - who cares - end result is the same, a locked system. Yeah, that was going on too! too?

      @scottalanmiller said in MeshCentral Run Commands on Multiple Computers at Once: "Starting with MeshCentral v0.5.85, you can now select "Run Commands" in the group actions or device actions. Allows running shell commands on many devices at once." Wow, this is going to really change the way we use Mesh! Awesome stuff!

      @manxam said in MeshCentral 2 - unknown device michael-7-x64: This is an AV sandbox performing a scan and run on this application. Happens regularly when deploying various remote management tools to devices with AV. You'll get some Microsoft VMs, Bitdefender automated machines, Kaspersky, etc... It looks as though this SPECIFIC device name is from Bitdefender's sandbox : https://www.reddit.com/r/msp/comments/c8z1kl/bitdefenders_sandbox_just_ran_my_screenconnectcw/ Nice find!

      @Ylian Any thoughts on why my system is demanding having the "cert": line added? I did do a startup based on the install instructions node ./node_modules/meshcentral --cert example.servername.com Does that put the hostname somewhere other than the config.json?

      The new views really make a huge difference. Going to the top bar view, removing the bottom bar, adding dark mode. I have way more screen real estate and feel like I can get to what I need more quickly.

      Exported, cleaned up references to mongo and all better. No Mongo. Export the database (this uses the running database, so I had to have Mongo fixed) cd /opt/meshcentral node node_modules/meshcentral --dbexport" Go in the config file and remove the "mongodb" line(s) in settings nano /opt/meshcentral/meshcentral-data/config.json Restart meshcentral systemctl restart meshcentral # or /opt/meshcentral/mcstop /opt/meshcentral/mcstart Import the database cd /opt/meshcentral node node_modules/meshcentral --dbimport" Restart meshcentral systemctl restart meshcentral # or /opt/meshcentral/mcstop /opt/meshcentral/mcstart

      @scottalanmiller said in MeshCentral never updates the display name: I would prefer hostname as a separate "detected" field that is always there, and the display name as one that doesn't change on us. I don't care what the default setting is, as long as it is a setting that I can choose, because I will hate having to update crap all the time.

      @scottalanmiller said in MechCentral Feature Request: Blank Background Wallpaper Option: A feature that I would really like to see on MeshCentral is the option to have background wallpaper blanked out. This reduces bandwidth needs and often goes a long way to improve responsiveness and look & feel when using remote access. Many customers and users have rotating backgrounds that just destroy remote connections. @Ylian Already submitted a request on github?

I have to press disconnect and connect again until it works. Have you experienced the same? It only happens with WebRTC though. Yes, we do see that from time to time.

Easier to just start over? Probably, but never considered doing that! I think @Ylian mentioned that is was possible or was going to be possible. in the main thread.. not 100% sure. Should be, they share a format. I've just never ingested a backup into NeDB before.

      @scottalanmiller said in MeshCentral2 Issue: @dafyre said in MeshCentral2 Issue: What I saw on my Fedora 29/Gnome desktop was that it showed up, but most of the remote features did not work. that's more of what I would expect. As discussed in another thread (I think)... that's due to Wayland being used for Gnome.
