    Enterprise Homescreen

    We use the enterprise home screen to let the users start just one App.  The Citrix receiver does have option to "copy to home screen" , in this way the shortcut is available in the Enterprise  home screen. The new Citrix Workspace App does not have that option anymore, Citrix told us that this will be new status "As Designed" not planned near future te get the option back. Before we start enrolling this new Citrix app we need to find another way to fully secure the WT6000 device for the end users. Does anyone have any idea we can try? Help appreciated!

    MobiControl and Secure Pulse VPN issues

    We are using Zebra TC70x GMS devices running Android 7.1.2 and 8.1 with MobiControl using work Managed device and Lockdown Mode.The devices are connected using WiFi and with Secure Pulse VPN to connect to our network. We use Managed Google Play applications and app config to get the for automatic app installation and configuration. We also have Always On VPN enabled, we have set net.pulsesecure.pulsesecure in Feature Control, Always On VPN settings.We face two issues:- Always On VPNIf we enroll a new device or move a device between groups without and to Feature Control (and Always On VPN) enabled, Always On VPN connects automatically. But if we reboot the device it won't connect and go Always On (manually clicking connect works).After a reboot and the device going into Lockdown Mode, we can see a Secure Pulse icon in the notifications bar showing the VPN service is running. A couple of minutes later another icon is added showing a user certificate error message (unable to access users security certificate). Again, clicking Connect manually works.- Device offline with Always On VPN setting enabled in Feature ControlWe are unable to contact devices in groups with Feature Control / Always ON VPN enabled. In the MobiControl app, Agent status blinking Connected/Disconnected. Switching from Lockdown Mode to Admin Mode works, Agent status is Connected.If we move the device to a group without Feature Control / Always On VPN the device is connected, the same goes even if VPN is manually connected. This to me confirms the offline issue is related to Secure Pulse Always On VPN and MobiControl.We have allowed VPN traffic based on the recommendations below. MobiControl Deployment Server Note: For deployments with multiple deployment servers, for caching purposes. Binary 5495 MobiControl Management Server Binary 5494/5495 Google Play HTTPS 443 Remote Control Binary 5494 MobiControl Console Remote Control HTTPS (web sockets) 443 Agent version: 13.7.2 Build 1015Thankful for any ideas how to approach these issues.

    Migrating SOTI MobiControl to Different Host/IP Solved

    Hello, I've seen a few threads regarding this over the past few years but nothing very recent. Basically, we need to move our SOTI Mobicontrol installation from an aging server to a newer VM. We are currently running Version: 14.1.8.1064. We primarily use Android+ devices but also some Windows Desktop Classic devices. From documentation I've found online, I need to add in our new server as a secondary deployment server to SOTI's administration settings, which I've done. Once this propagates to our devices, we can switch to the new installation of SOTI. Is this correct, and am I missing any steps? Thank you!

On the SOTI.NET WebSite there is a description for "Configuring the Settings Manager App Using an XML Configuration File" With the Shell on the device I chage to the folder 1:\data\data\net.soti.mobicontrol.androidwork\app_exposed\ now I have to use a Script to apply the configuration "Use the following script command to apply the Settings Manager configurations to the device: sendinfo net.soti.settingsmanager.RECEIVE_COMMAND import_config </CONFIG_FILE_NAME> . " My Settingsmanager.xml is on %sdcard% What is the correct command? What is the correct Path. Because I created a FILE Sync Rule to push the XML in the folder. 1:\data\data\net.soti.mobicontrol.androidwork\app_exposed\ But still not working.

    Device Kiosk Lockdown Not Secure

    One of my supervisors in the field has reported that workers are getting past the lockdown kiosk by constantly hitting the recent apps button on the device. He claims that they have been able to get into areas that allow them to make phone calls and send text messages.  I have been able to duplication the problem partially. When "pounding recent apps button" I have gotten an app that was in the background to stay in the foreground. While I am still skeptical about the functions they have reported getting into, I am still researching.  If the Kiosk can be bypassed this easily, then it is not much good. Thoughts? Server: 14.1.2.1937 Agent 13.6.0.1662 Device: Zebra TC77 Management Method: AEDO
