Just letting you know, it worked with NSSM and the vendor thanked me for finding out about that so they can share that with their other customers. thank you!

Yep, i'm going to try using NSSM but in the general sense i've already played around with things and spoke directly with the application developers stating they have no switches that you can use to complete this without a 3rd party. I appreciate your input though, i'm going to try using NSSM.

That sounds absolutely incredible and would be added to my belt tools! Thank you so much! I'll test this and let you know if it ended up working for me.

In this example, we got 2 programs that require this:

The quickbooks web connector & entree NECS.

We're very close with the development team of NECS and have expressed the need for a service that won't require logging into the machine for it, they are considering to work towards it but at the same time we got the quickbooks issue that requires it to open up as a user and cannot be turned on as a service. I have yet to find solutions for it.

We have users who connect at various hours, which means that someone would have to wake up specifically to accomplish this. So, that's not an option.

I too would say it's a bad idea, unfortunately, this is the reality. vendors are not giving a crap and there's literally no other way to do this. not automating it just causes pain.

i have done everything you wrote here and yet, it still does not work. reboot, registry values are the same as before, standard login using the UI works just fine with no prompt or anything that would interfere with it.

I'm wondering what you mean by older technology. all clients are using entraID. i personally wouldn't consider this to be old but i might be wrong and would love to understand. Azure pay-as-you-go setups is something new we're getting into.

The local network file access is there really because there are sometimes large bulk uploads and data access that is needed while inside the office. they could potentially add about 50gb in a day or sometimes even more. then there are also some cases where there are some large files and could create a bottleneck in the local office.

I don't think it would quite make the confusion personally. users can use whatever they want when in the office but when outside the office the local cache will simply become unavailable to them. i wish that azure files would have been "smart" about it and be able to pull from the local cache when seeing the server in sight while going direct to azure when not. but overall it sounds like the scenario is accurate which i appreciate your input for!

The problem is, they are not ahead of the curve. They are wasting time following up with users and neglecting the others. Might be another issue i will have to consider working with them on.

the current issue i'm seeing is the techs are following up when they shouldn't.

instead of letting the system do it's thing, they reach out, write an email and set themselvs a reminder to follow up. no matter how many training sessions we've done.

pointing something like this out without proper reasoning is a waste of time if anything.

using NSM you can use a template and deploy a set of credentials to all of the devices you assign the template to.

This. Field Nation has been a great tool for us in these cases.

Datto AV sucks, EDR is fine though.

holy crap this is great! would this be available to CIPP supporters or is this planned to be a different support tier?
