The certificate to be used by the server for authentication is selected on the Server Configuration page of the program preferences.

It can be either your self-signed certificate issued by a certification authority trusted in your organization or the certificate issued to the server by one of the commonly known certification authorities. Although it is possible to accept this certificate for communication, it is strongly recommended that you use the certificate issued to your server. It is not fully trusted, because the DNS match and the trusted root conditions are not met. By default, the self-signed certificate issued to RemoteShutdownServer.exe is used. Otherwise, when the credentials are provided manually, the transport layer of communication is secured with a SSL certificate provided by the server. When the current session credentials are used, all aspects of the Windows integrated security are applied to the client-server communication. When connecting to a remote server, you can choose if you would like to use the credentials of the Windows session the client program is executed in or to provide other credentials. You can disconnect from the current server and connect to another one at any time using the Switch Server button from the Application Menu or from the Server Ribbon group on the Program page. Īfter the connection is established, the client allows you to manage the machines and tasks if you account is authorized accordingly by the server access control configuration. For the client to be able to connect to the server via a custom port, you should define this port in the server name, e.g. The SSLPort DWORD value should be defined to override the port used for connection via a SSL channel using the specified credentials. To override the port used for connection by using the Windows session credentials, you should specify it in the Port DWORD value. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\EMCO\Remote Shutdown\v7
