They also added CrowdSec recently. @Ylian the developer also releases YouTube videos covering a lot of these topics and how to implement.

@scottalanmiller I am missing the 2FA option in the my account settings. I am missing something I suppose?
Because the name is dumb?
My Account >> Manage Authenticator App
Nope. I just didn't RTFM. By default, it is in WAN and LAN mode. You have to switch it to WAN mode and give it a valid DNS name. Then that option shows up.

Oh right, been a long time since I did a new install. Forgot that they default to LAN. Why I wonder?

Says unavailable. I think because it is a channel and not a video but ML thinks it is a video link.

Yeah that was supposed to be to the channel. Here is the CrowdSec video. Lots great videos on his channel for setting things up.

Well, this tool is amazing and just works. Nice job @Ylian !

Yeah, it's definitely the best tool for this on the market. It's blown past everyone else. We are doing the AMT integration now and rolling out vPro anywhere that we can. It's just amazing.

I know you use it for remote agents that are always installed (or at least I assume so), but are you also able to use it for "one off" remote sessions? For example, sometimes I will open a screen connect session for a quick support session. Then when finished, close the session, the end. Can we do that as well with MC?

Yes, works fine for that. The end user just chooses "Run" instead of "install" and it works that way.

I have the agent running on 2 Pi's The 4 GB version of the Pi. The screen lag is incredibly SLOW. (running Raspian)
Installing an agent on my windows laptop (8GB ram) is incredibly responsive and quick. Are there some tweaks to run on the Pis to improve the screen lag for remote viewing? -

Are there some tweaks to run on the Pis to improve the screen lag for remote viewing?It was 100% Pi related as suspected. Here's what I did to speed things up. (found on https://forums.raspberrypi.com/viewtopic.php?p=1983061&sid=eaf6504ffd4e15374cbd86907d954c67#p1983061)
in /boot/config.txt
uncomment this line:
hdmi_force_hotplug=1commented out these lines:
#dtoverlay=vc4-kms-v3d
#max_framebuffers=2Then the resolution was really low despite the VNC resolution set in raspi-config, so after setting the above and rebooting I then set the 'display options' resolution in raspi-config to be the same as the VNC resolution.
In my case I'm using 1920x1080, so that modified my config.txt to have these lines:
hdmi_group=2
hdmi_mode=82 -

4GB 32bit is the fastest option.

Make sure to update firmware.

This tool set is amazing. The branding and customization options are really nice. I want to setup 2fa for ALL users of the system. I want to force the users to enable 2fa. I put this in the config.json file, but it is still not prompting/forcing users to setup 2fa. Is anyone else using this?
"passwordRequirements": { "min": 8, "max": 128, "upper": 1, "lower": 1, "numeric": 1, "nonalpha": 1, "reset": 90, "force2factor": true, "_skip2factor": "127.0.0.1,192.168.2.0/24", "oldPasswordBan": 5, "banCommonPasswords": false, "twoFactorTimeout": 300 }

@AdamF Just looking at the syntax, have you tried using 1 and 0 instead of true / false?

Good idea, but this is the direct from the manual. So I would assume that "true" is the correct value.

@AdamF Fair point

@Ylian posted a response to a similar issue on Reddit. Make sure the passwordrequirements section is inside the default domain section.

Hmm. It is inside the domain section, and the whole config file is valid JSON. At least it is valid JSON as far as an online validator is concerned. It's either still something wrong with my config, or is there another option that I am missing to enable this?

Not sure what follows your passwordRequirements section, but maybe you need a comma after your last }
