Two-factor auth for windows logon using Lenovo CSS?
Posted: Sat Sep 20, 2014 1:53 pm
Hi all,
I have been trying for a couple of days now to get two-factor auth for windows logon working on my X1C Type 3443.
I am running Windows 7 (64-bit) with Lenovo System Update 5.06.0007, Lenovo Solution Center 2.6.001.00, ThinkVantage Fingerprint Software 5.9.9.7282, ThinkVantage Client Security Solution 8.30.0031.00. If it's of any importance, my X1C was originally shipped with Windows 8, but I couldn't stand it and reinstalled Windows 7 instead.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled the above programs in the following order:
1) Install System Update and reboot
2) Install Solution Center and reboot
3) Install CSS and reboot
4) Install Fingerprint Software and reboot
Everything seems to be working fine by itself, except that when I try to configure two-factor auth in CSS, the Fingerprint tab (on the left of the GUI) is greyed out and CSS tells me that I have no fingerprints enrolled. The Fingerprint Software, however, is working just fine and shows me as having a fingerprint enrolled there.
I have spent all morning searching for a solution, but everything I find dates back to 2011, when ThinkPads still came with ThinkVantage Toolbox. I obviously can't download that anymore, so I'm at a loss. Can someone please help? Thanks!
