NCM Not showing passwords?

jon0966

What's up with NCM not showing passwords anymore? Am I doing something wrong here or did the developer go wild with a bad idea?

Check whether your NCM is configured to show passwords (and more) by going to File / Settings / Security, and then looking at what options have been selected. If you have a check in the "Hide Passwords" option, that may be the problem.

That check box is no longer available in NCM 6.1

I would really like to have this option back. No being able to see the password makes troubleshoot login issues much more difficult.

This was mainly changed due to a large number of Customer Complaints about the Possibility of a Network Compromise.

Apparently you are not running version 6.1.

Access to NCM should be guarded anyways and troubleshooting without this is difficult. I ask that this return.

All this does is slow someone down. The user can still go to the Config Archive and see the passwords and keys in the configurations. The security built into NCM needs to be enhanced. Removing the check box doesn't fix anything.
