Rohos Logon Key v.1.7.3 (for Mac). Good-Bye Tiger.
We are glad to announce new release of Rohos Logon Key for Mac v.1.7.3 – two-factor authentication solution based on USB tokens, for Mac OS X 10.4/10.5 and coming 10.6. This version offers better support for Snow Leopard and improvements for ‘Bluetooth logon’ feature.
ANN For “Tiger” (10.4) users: We decided to stop support for Mac OS X 10.4 on Rohos Logon Key 1.7.2. This setup package contains a special folder named “Tiger” with Rohos Logon Key 1.7.2.
ANN For “Snow Leopard” users: Please use setup package from folder “Snow Leopard (10.6 x64)”.
What’s new:
- Fixed “Allow to log in only by USB key” feature. In some cases it was possible to log in using password.
- For ‘Snow Leopard’ we fixed “Unlock screen saver by USB key” feature. Now it works OK.
- Improved German translation thanks to Tobias Langer.
- Improved “Bluetooth logon” feature:
- Now it is possible to define PIN code for two-factor authentication by using Mobile device.
- Improved Bluetooth discovery. Now Rohos Logon should not lock the screen
unexpectedly after login by detected Bluetooth device.
Credentials Prompt of RDP 6.0 and login with USB Key
Microsoft Remote Desktop Connection 6.0 (on Windows Vista\Seven) by default makes it mandatory for the user to enter user name and password before RDP client can establish connection to the WinSeven/2008 remote server (“ Enter your credentials for <server>. These credentials will be used when you connect to the remote computer” ). This is called “ Network Level Authentication“. If you are going to use USB key you can skip this prompt or disable it.
on vista you will see
As Rohos Logon Key RDC plugin works with the established terminal session this Credentials Prompt may be ignored or disable it by default.
Actually if Rohos Logon is installed locally it could work in this ‘credential prompt’ window:
How to disable RDC Credentials Prompt:
To skip the credentials prompt – choose “Do not attempt authentication†under Authentication options on the Advanced tab, but this option is not set permanently. To permanently skip the additional credential screen , edit the Default.RDP file (My Documents folder) in notepad. Including enablecredsspsupport:i:0 disables the Credentials Security Service Provider for the connection. If you use separate .RDP files for different server, modify each of those .RDP files. Below is the content section of the default.rdp file with enablecredsspsupport:i:0 option included.
redirectposdevices:i:0
authentication level:i:0
enablecredsspsupport:i:0
prompt for credentials:i:0
negotiate security layer:i:1
Note that this workaround is suggested only if you connect Windows 2000/2003/XP systems because according to Terminal Services Team blog post – “This option does disable the new credential prompting behavior, but it also disables support for Network Level Authentication for Vista (and Longhorn Server) RDP connections; Network Level Authentication requires credentials to be provided by the client before a session is created on the server side.†So if you do connect to Vista over RDP, you’ll not be able to use this option.

Test: How to password protect Ceedo on 8GB drives
To our laboratory were delivered USB flash drives – Kingston DataTraveler 101 and Transcend JF V10, both of 8GB capacity. The tests we had run were mostly focused on compatibility and functionality of these USB flash drives with Rohos Mini Drive that creates hidden and password protected partitions on USB drives. Additionally, we discovered a way of locking Ceedo by moving it to the Rohos partition.
How do you prefer to protect your important files and folders in your USB flash drive?
