Data Sources
The selected data source configurations are exported with the username/password currently configured. When creating a file to quickly set up new employees, make sure not to give away credentials by mistake. Using the Custom installer service is recommended for this case.
All configured data sources will be displayed in this section. Select the one(s) to include in the export. Please note that the content of the data source is not exported.
Once the settings are properly customized, click on Export. A prompt then appears asking to save the settings in a RemoteDesktopManager.cfg file.
