Setting Up the Remote Management Agent Password

The user at the managed workstation must set a password for the Remote Management Agent and communicate the password to the remote operator.

To set the agent password at the managed workstation:

1. Right-click the Remote Management Agent icon.

2. Click Security > Set Password

   Use a password of ten or fewer ASCII characters. The password is case-sensitive and cannot be blank.

NOTE:  The password is stored in an encrypted form in HKLM\software\novell\zenworks\remote management\rmagent, password. It is encrypted in the registry with a non-machine specific hash. This means you can use NAL to distribute a standard password.
