Identities and Password Management
On the Manage Passwords interface of the Vault Management tab of the OmniPass Control Center, there is a pull-
down selection box labeled, Identity. This field lets you choose which identity you are managing passwords for. When
you select an identity here, only those password protected dialogs that are associated with that identity are shown.
You can perform all the functions explained in “Password Management” on page 172.
Configuring OmniPass
This section gives an overview of both the Export/Import function and the OmniPass Control Center.
Exporting and Importing Users
Using OmniPass Control Center, you can export and import users in and out of OmniPass. The export process backs
up all remembered sites, credentials, and enrolled fingerprints for an OmniPass user. All OmniPass data for a user is
backed up to a single encrypted database file. During the import process, the Windows login of the exported user is
required. If the proper credentials cannot be supplied, the user profile will not be imported.
Exporting an OmniPass User Profile
To export a user, open OmniPass Control Center, and click Import/Export User under Manage Users.
YOU CANNOT IMPORT A USER INTO OMNIPASS IF THERE ALREADY IS A USER WITH THE SAME NAME ENROLLED IN OMNIPASS.
• YOU SHOULD PERIODICALLY EXPORT YOUR USER PROFILE AND STORE IT IN A SAFE PLACE. IF ANYTHING HAPPENS TO YOUR SYSTEM, YOU CAN IMPORT
YOUR OMNIPASS PROFILE TO A NEW SYSTEM AND HAVE ALL YOUR REMEMBERED SETTINGS AND FINGERPRINTS INSTANTLY.
• DON'T FORGET THE WINDOWS LOGIN CREDENTIALS WHEN EXPORTING. WHEN YOU EXAMINE THE IMPORTATION, YOU ARE PROMPTED FOR
AUTHENTICATION. THE CREDENTIALS THAT WILL ALLOW A USER PROFILE TO BE IMPORTED ARE THE WINDOWS LOGIN CREDENTIALS OF THE
EXPORTED USER. THEY ARE THE CREDENTIALS THAT HAD TO BE SUBMITTED WHEN THE USER PROFILE WAS EXPORTED. YOU WILL NEED USER NAME,
P
ASSWORD, AND DOMAIN.
