Privileged Remote Access

Hi all,we upgraded our PRA cloud instance from 24.3.x to 25.1.2 one week ago.After the activity we are facing some issues in connecting to our resources using network tunnel jumps. No modification of configuration of firewalls, network, jumpoint and jump items. Starting a debug activity, errors that occurring are the following:IPT:ERROR>Exception enumerating filter rules while getting IP address for name server pointers. failed to convert IP address stringException - failed building the DNS PTR list Do we need to create lookup zones and PTR record for every target that we need to reach through network tunnel jumps? No issues before the upgrade. Thanks in advance,Massimo

Hi everyone,I'm looking into ways to automate some actions with BeyondTrust PRA. Specifically, I'm wondering if anyone has managed to: Automatically log in to the BeyondTrust console Launch a "Tunnel" type Jumpoint automatically, without manual intervention. The goal would be to have a script or integration that, once authenticated, can open a tunnel through a pre-configured Jumpoint — useful for automations or third-party tool integrations.Has anyone done something similar, or knows if this is possible using the BeyondTrust API or any other method?

Just trying to see what is your current data retention period for Session Recordings. I understand this depends on various factors - compliance requirements, deployment size/usage , cost-benefit, Org maturity level   etc. But posting this to get a sense of how other users are managing it . We have around 60-90 days live on appliance, plus another 90 days on a network share. As the usage increases the session recordings data is growing exponentially. But at the same time investigations may require some historical data as well. 

In the ideas portal A10-I-249 someone suggested being able to re-inject credentials when running a sudo or su command. The idea was marked as already implemented. Is there any documentation on how to achieve this or can anyone provide steps to accomplish this without setting the sudoers file to passwordless?

Hello is there data at rest encryption available in PRA inbuilt? or need to configure with key management solutions? Found whitepaper etc but it just mentions steps to integrate with KMS.

Can the netbios name be made available for PRA and Password Safe, not just the domain name? domainname\username doesn’t work on all applications; some legacy platforms it has to be the netbios name. 

On Privilege Remote access how can I link the Session policy to a bulk group policy with the help of API. I do not see any parameter of Session policy in Group policy

Hello,I am experiencing an issue with the Bring Your Own Tool (BYOT) option when attempting to open a Remote RDP session using an external tool. For some endpoints, the session initiates but terminates within 1-2 seconds. This behavior is inconsistent, as it works fine for other endpoints.Could you please assist in identifying the cause of this issue and suggest a resolution?
