When you select "Save my password", the password will be saved in a local INI-file. Encryption is being used for saving the password.

IPv4,  IPv6, Default

When entering a DNS-name for the Host, the user can select to connect by IPv4, IPv6 or default. Default will be IPv4 unless only IPv6 is available.

IPv4  

IPv6  

*       

The user can select IPv4, IPv6 or *

• IPv4
  • The user enters the IPv4 address of the AADServer.
  • In case a hostname is entered (not an IPv4 address) and DNS is required, a DNS request is done for an IPv4 address, and the connection is made using IPv4.
• IPv6
  • The user enters the IPv6 address of the AADServer.
  • In case a hostname is entered (not an IPv6 address) and DNS is required, a DNS request is done for an IPv6 address, and the connection is made using IPv6.
• *
  • default IPv4 will be done.

Readonly / edit Name and Password

Initially AADS Client shows the Authorization details in a "read only" modus, such to avoid that accidentally the Authorization details are changed.

When clicking on the small "edit button", next to "Username", it becomes possible for the user to enter and change the Authorization details:

Note: when AADS Client is started, and initially there is no "Username" or "Host", for example because it is the very first time AADS Client is started, then AADS Client does not start in "read only" mode; AADS Client immediately allows for the user to enter the Authorization details:

In this case the user needs to be able to enter the Authorization details.
