User Ticketing for the Web Interface

[Top]  [Previous]  [Next]  

When NetMan is accessed through the Web Interface, the credentials used to open the session are not stored. Instead, 'user tickets' are created. These are user names in the format "@@GUID" (for example, @@5CFB2335-A315-48EC-AFBA-4BE91A87BA). These user names are stored in the files for session requests. The MIME type for these files is application/x-nmrdp. They are downloaded by the browser and executed by NetMan RDP Web Client. Some browsers cache these files on the local hard disk. The files are actually designed to be discarded by the server right away and not saved in the local browser cache, but many browsers cache them anyway. That is why it is important that login data is not stored on the hard drive, not even in encrypted form.
