I think it falls under the security vs. convenience category. Ideally,
everyone would use a different multi-word pass phrase for every account they
deal with. However, that's not very convenient. I like having the option to

I've contacted pGina developers about auto-

I would add, though, that there are ways to make "auto-connect" work.
We have a single-click, auto-connect system working in our VCL installation.
The basic principal is to define a protocol handler and format the URI so that
it is understandable to the t
In general, I would rather keep things as they are. But if that
capability is added, I would prefer to have it be an option as the
current one-time random password is much more secure. (Our experience
is that users generally pick poor passwords. Perhaps this can be a
development-only option?)

Hi
Would it be possible, and is it good idea in general due to possible security
risks, to add "Preferred Password" field on User Preferences page (under RDP
File Preferences or Personal Information?) to allow user to provide a password
for all his/her reservations?
Then VCL would use this p
