ThinManager Database Tool

The ThinManager Database Tool is a utility that allows the end user to modify certain values in the configuration database from a command line instead of through the ThinManager interface.

Examples

TMDBT --terminal-restart Paint1	Connects to the local ThinServer and restarts the terminal that's not in a group named Paint1.
TMDBT --server 10.50.10.20 Administrator Password --terminal-restart Paint1	Same as the above example except the program will connect to the ThinServer at 10.50.10.20 using the specified credentials.
TMDBT --file commands.csv	Parses the file commands.csv for any number of commands.
TMDBT --terminal-setwindowscredentials Paint1 User1 Password --terminal-restart Paint1	Sets the credentials for terminal Paint1 to User1 Password and then restarts it.

Behavior Notes

Credentials

Wherever new credentials are specified there as three different defined behaviors.

UserName	Sets the username and leaves the domain field unchanged.
Domain\UserName	Sets the username and domain.
.\UserName	Sets the username and removes the domain.

When specifying a Terminal name or a Location name the whole path including groups must be specified.

Terminal1	Refers to an terminal named Terminal1 that is not a part of any group.
Painting\Paint1	Refers to a terminal named Paint1 in the Painting group.
BaseLocation\Room302\PaintBooth	Refers to the PaintBooth location that is in the Room302 group that is in the BaseLocation group.
