KACE Desktop Authority 11.2.1 - Release Notes

Network Location Awareness

The Network Location Awareness (NLA) tab is used to configure the DA Client Service to automatically detect when an off-network computer (e.g. employee working remotely) establishes a new connection to the parent domain via a network change (e.g. using a VPN connection). Once the new connection has been detected, Desktop Authority will then immediately begin to execute all applicable validated settings.

Enable Network Location Awareness

Select this box to enable NLA and allow a managed DA computer to immediately run Desktop Authority when a new connection to the corporate network has been detected.

Enable DA script in case of network disconnections and reconnection

In addition to detecting a change in network, this setting allows for the detection of a disconnection and re-connection to the same corporate network. This would be used when a user disconnects from the direct connect LAN and then goes to wireless. This setting allows Desktop Authority to be able to immediately re-map printers, drives, etc.

Alternate logon script name

By default, NLA will verify if SLogic or SLogic.bat (default Desktop Authority logon script) is assigned to the user in Active Directory. If not, Desktop Authority will not be launched. This setting should be used to specify an alternative logon script name(s) currently associated with the execution of Desktop Authority. Multiple alternate logon scripts can be specified. Each filename must be separated by a comma.

 

Example: Login.bat,Login
Example: Login.bat,Login,Slogic.bat,Slogic
Path to UBM non-default logon script location

Specifies the location of where logon script resides. The batch file name does not need to be specified. The default location is %logonserver%\Netlogon". So if the Slogic.bat login script will be used from the Netlogon folder then nothing needs to be specified.

However, if Slogic.bat is being replicated to sub folder or different folder than Netlogon, like %logonserver%\Netlogon\DA, then the full UNC path needs to be specified.

 

Example: %LogonServer%\Netlogon\DA

Example: \\ServerName\FolderName\SubFolderName.

Type of event for DA script

Select the event when the logon script will be run. The default is set to Refresh.

When the Logon event is selected, the DA Client Splash screen will be displayed.

The DA Client Splash screen will not be displayed when the Refresh event is selected.

Minimum period between DA script executions

The amount of time needed before NLA will execute again. For example, if the period is set to "600" seconds (10 minutes) then when a user connects to VPN, NLA will detect this and kick off a refresh event (default). If the user disconnects and re-connects before 10 minutes, then NLA will not execute SLogic.bat again.
