PE Password Generation

[Justin Ferello]

All,

I must be missing something, I have "Enable Password Generation" turned to on for (2) seperate PE installs, but every time I create an account the password field is always blank.  I am seeing this in two totally different installs.          

Thank you,

You write "create an account". I would expect the behavior similar to the legacy

TMS Agent setup, where passwords are only auto created on an AD import.

Manual account generation = manual password setup.

I would try to get them to use AD import of accounts and also password handling via AD&VCS.

Martin,

You are probably correct, I alwasy forget that import from AD does not include passwords, so TMS has to generate random ones.  For some reason I always assume that importing from AD brings username & password
