@scottalanmiller Many thanks for reporting this on GitHub. Did a bunch of fixes to minification and NeDB code as a result. Very must appreciated.

Thanks. On 0.3.1-h now and all is working great.

Busy day here...

Nice! Today I added a "Log scale" option because some data was really off. I also made it so some data points start expiring as times goes on. One hidden feature, you can click on the series names at the top to toggle them.

Anyone else have their screen freeze after the UAC Prompt comes up when connected to Windows clients? (wondering if its just me)
Server is Ubuntu Current
I connect from Windows 10 to MeshCentral
Client system is Windows 10Tried,
-Disconnect then Reconnect from Desktop
-Refresh MeshCentralLog out and log in of MC seems to be the only method that works. I can see the UAC prompt and continue on with the support session.
On occasion, after I have logged out and back in of MC, the mouse works but the keyboard doesn't. Have to go through the motions again.

Hmmmm.... My will freeze until I do something. Waited about 2 hours once.
Does it ever mess with your keyboard but allow the mouse to work?

No, it's just several seconds here.
Have not seek a keyboard issue like that.

And now 0.3.1-p before I even had a chance to update.

Skipped O and went straight to P, lol.

Just tested the Mesh Router as well. It works great! Connecting from a hosted server to a lab in my home network (behind double nat) and it works flawlessly!

Yeah. I'm planning on showing this to the guys at the office after I get a few more systems on it. I know the Helpdesk folks love Landesk (aka Ivanti).

But lacking "allow" and an on screen notice of connection means I cannot use it in production.

Just updated to 0.3.1-r

I know it is not what you want but this is the workaround I use as I have users I don't want to be connected all the time.
For a few users, they download the agent to their desktop and run on command. It does not install by default so you get the same functionality as an allow button.

That has nothing to do with what I said.

I must have misunderstood your need for an "Allow" button with User Notification. Apparently I am not getting what your exact issue is?
-
@pmoncho I believe he probably wants the agent installed, but wants the user to be notified and then asked for permission to allow connection.
