Hexnode Access: Internet Required for Login on Windows Devices

Hi, I’m facing an issue with Hexnode UEM Access on our Windows devices. Users are being prompted to connect to the internet every time they try to log in.  Is there a way to disable this requirement? Alternatively, can we extend the duration for how long a device can stay offline before it forces a network login?

Locked out? Not anymore: Local login fallback in Hexnode Access

What’s new  Hexnode Access now lets you fall back to local login when Hexnode Access authentication isn’t available. We’ve introduced the Fallback to Local Login option within Hexnode Access for both macOS and Windows platforms. This ensures that if cloud authentication is unavailable, users aren't left stranded at the login screen.  Why it’s useful  Identity providers and networks aren't infallible. Whether it’s a service outage or a "dead zone" in the field, authentication hurdles shouldn't result in…

I cannot enter sign in to my device using Google Workspace credentials when using Hexnode Access

Hey everyone, I recently discovered that we could use the Google Workspace credentials to sign in to a Windows device locally using Hexnode Access. I purchased the Secure LDAP service for my Google Workspace account, set up the LDAP client, and added the LDAP certificate for the configured client in Hexnode to enable authentication for the users in my organization when they sign in to their devices using their…

Hexnode Access Policy password updation issue

Hola amigos, I’m facing an issue with the Hexnode access policy on my macOS devices. I associated the Hexnode access policy with Google Workspace as the IdP, with the authentication option being “Google workspace domains added to hexnode portal”. We have integrated our Active Directory with Google Workspace. When the password of a local user account user is changed via AD however, the new password cannot be used to login through…

Double login prompts and password sync issues

Hey everyone. Running into a weird issue with Hexnode Access on our macs. We have FileVault enabled, and users are getting double prompted at boot—first the native Filevault screen, then the Hexnode login.  I tried disabling Filevault on a test machine to see what would happen. It fixed the double prompt, and the Hexnode Access screen took over the login window beautifully. But now, the cloud password isn't syncing to…

Streamline Hexnode Access Login

As an admin user, I'd like Hexnode Access to streamline the number of login authentications when logging into a device.   When using Hexnode Access currently, a user has to authenticate multiple times to get into their workstation. On macOS with FileVault enabled, it's three times: drive decryption login, local user login, Google/M365 login. This…
