Hello everyone

. Reading the documentation, one might conclude that absolutely for installing the management console (with the private key, among other places, in c:\private...).

We have several system administrators who might connect to the server. What prevents us from installing the management console on multiple admin workstations (copying the same private key to each workstation so that the packages are encrypted with the same private key) and attacking the same server?

Is this feasible?

I'm not talking about a single administration workstation with multiple users. ;)

Thank you in advance for your feedback.

Hello,

the console was designed to work this way.
Therefore, you can use the console directly on the WAPT clients.

On your administration machines, you will simply need to re-enter the prefix and the path to the private key.

However, be careful not to edit the same machine at the same time. ;)
