KACE Desktop Authority 11.3 - Release Notes

exceptions

The Exceptions tab is used to disable the ability to run Desktop Authority or allow an alternate logon script to run on any of the specified computers. Exceptions can only be modified by a Super User/Group. This object is applicable to both.

Do not execute Desktop Authority profiles or settings on:

Select the appropriate box for each computer class that should be excluded from running Desktop Authority. These selections may include any combination of the following computer classes: Desktop computers, Portable, Tablet, Embedded, Terminal server clients, Member servers, Domain controllers, Clients connecting over dial-up, Citrix ICA published applications, and Specific computers.

When excluding Specific computers from the execution of Desktop Authority, enter the computer names in the entry provided. Separate computer names using a semicolon (;). Wildcards may be used with the computer names.

Launch alternative script (bat/cmd)

Setting an alternate script only applies to user logins as the Login script is only executed when a user actually logs into the computer.

When a computer class is excluded from running Desktop Authority, an alternate batch or cmd file may be launched instead. Running an alternate batch file is useful if your users require only a few simple drive mappings and do not need the full configuration capabilities that Desktop Authority offers. Select the Enable box to designate the alternate selection. Manually type the name of the alternate file or click Browse to locate the file on the network. The file must have an extension of .BAT or .CMD in order for it to run as a logon script. Click Browse to locate the file will automatically copy the file to the SLSCRIPTS share so that it may be replicated to the NETLOGON share on each domain controller. 

Once a .BAT or .CMD file extension is entered into this field the Edit File link, is enabled. Click the Edit File link to edit an existing file or the creation of a new file if the file name is not found in the SLSCRIPTS share folder. 

Do not perform User Management actions at logoff

Select this box to disable the ability to process User Management logoff actions. No logoff events will be processed, regardless of whether they are selected as part of a profile's or element's validation logic settings.

Note: Selecting this check box will not remove the ability to select logoff or shutdown from the validation logic timing settings. However, the ability to execute a profile/element at logoff or shut down will be disabled.

Do not perform Computer Management actions at shutdown

Select this box to disable the ability to process Computer Management actions at shutdown. No events Computer Management events scheduled for shutdown will be processed, regardless of whether they are selected as part of a profile's or element's validation logic settings.

Note: Selecting this check box will not remove the ability to select logoff or shutdown from the validation logic timing settings. However, the ability to execute a profile/element at logoff or shut down will be disabled.

Allow any client to selectively bypass Desktop Authority execution

Selecting this box allows certain computers to be excluded from ever executing Desktop Authority regardless of the options selected in the Desktop Authority Manager. This option requires the use of a special options file called SLBYPASS. If this file is present on the client, Desktop Authority will detect its presence and immediately exit before launching the main script engine and/or applying any configuration changes to the client.

Note: For information on creating and using option files, see the Option Files topic.
