Is it possible to start the Network Identity Manager (netidmgr.exe)
WITHOUT prompting for credentials?
I'd like to have it start on boot, but I just want it to start minimized
in the system tray even if there are no credentials. I'd prefer it wait
until an application (eg, WinCVS,TortoiseCVS using ssh/gssapi) actually
attempts to retrieve credentials before it prompts for anything.
I've tried using no options and I've tried with -a, but in either
case it prompts for credentials.
On the flip side, stopping the Network Identity Manager. Is there a
"correct" way to cleanly stop it from the command line? I've tried using
"-k" (like krbcc32s.exe) but it doesn't appear to be supported. The only
way I've been able to terminate the process is to kill it. Again, I'm
looking for a way to close it from the command line.
And no matter how it's killed, even by doing right-click->Exit, on the
tray icon, the krbcc32s.exe process seems to remain running. I then need
to kill it with "krbcc32s -k". If netidmgr closes shouldn't it close
krbcc32s? Is there a valid reason krbcc32s is left running?
Are there any other processes that might be left running other then
krbcc32s?
