How to reconnect a client after UNBOUD with password

Submitted by vhuserclient on #1

Hi everyone,

Is there a way to automatically reconnect a client to a server using authentication/authorization? (https://www.virtualhere.com/authorization)

currently, using the api /usr/sbin/vhclientx86_64 -t "USE,<address>,<password>", works properly.  

But if an UNBOUND/UNMANAGING event occurs on the server, reconnection on the client restart without a password.

Is there a way to save the password in the configuration file of the client? Thanks

You can do it from the GUI by selecting "Save Password". But if you are using the command line version of the client you need to add it manually while its not running like this

Edit the /root/.vhui file and under the General section

[General]

PresavedPasswords=<server serial>,<password>[,<server serial>,<password>]...

Thank you.

Despite the authentication/authorization application on the device, any client can request the disconnection of the user who is currently using one of the devices. 

How can this risk be mitigated?
