Sorry I know this is long.
This started from HSBuddy needing the Local and Remote passwords needing to match in HS4...but it brought up a couple things I'm not completely clear on.
1) I block all my wall tablets from access to the Internet in my routers. If for no other reasons I don't want to constantly worry about OS patches and a couple are old enough I can't update them anymore anyway. As such, my HSTouch client wall tablets connect locally. What are the minimum permissions for a local HSTouch client passwords/login to be able to run anything that I set up on HSTouch? I probably could play with this for a while and figure it out, but if someone knows and can spare me that grief I'd really appreciate it. If this explained in a doc somewhere...I can't seem to find it.
It seems that I can set this in HSTouch software to that of a uname/pw with admin rights and a complex password and then set the client to use a uname/pw of an HS4 account with set to normal and then disable all the rights. At least they seem to be able to still run events etc.
2) The speaker client unname and pw in the HSTouch HS4 setup...Is that ONLY for speaker clients and has nothing to do with any other of the tablet if not using speech? If I was using speech this pw effects nothing else?
3) Other than the matching local (same subnet) and remote (MYHS) uname and passwords, if my system is only accessible from the Internet via MYHS are all the ones I use for other local stuff like the wall tablets only "useable" locally?
I ask this because I use a generated pw for MYHS that's long enough no human would ever want to type it in manually. I'm not going to run the password software locally on anything that either can't or I don't keep the OS patched to make copy and paste or automatic entry possible. I still use decent passwords locally, but not something 40+ characters long. Should I?
Confused...THANKS!
