How to create and test Connection Profiles For Windows Server in Password Safe

I checked KB0019103 kb article but this works only for Linux Servers, is there any such mechanism for RDP Connection on Windows Servers as well?I want to restrict specific users so that they can’t see reboot and shutdown option or their sessions should be terminated same as in Linux Server.

Server grouping

Is there a way to limit the servers a user sees when accessing their privileged account? We want to be able to only list servers a user has access to in AD so that they can RDP to them without being overwhelmed with a listing of all servers.

Application session hijacking

Hello everyone, I am having an issue in my enviroment, we have 2 RDS assets who has a load balancer between the PS Server and then. And the session hijacking is occurring only on application session, the access policies is already on the configuration to logoff on disconect, force termination and enhanced session auditing, I tested some ports in the load balancer that are used to deploy the ESA service, 445 and 139, and both were blocked, but even after the release the problem persisted, not all sessions suffer from this problem of session stealing, but it is a significant number that is impacting on the experience of using the tool. Someone can help me with any other alternative to avoid this problem? Thanks

Functional Account Automatic Password Management

Hi Team. What is the best practice for enabling the automatic password management for the functional account? Is it recommended to do so? and once it is enabled is it only going to rotate the password for the functional account or it will rotate all other managed accounts that are onboarded to Password safe? and how can we retrieve the password of functional account from the console once it is enabled? Appreciate your feedback on this?
