UDMG Authentication Proxy
Create a directory
C:\UDMG\
MFT Auth Proxy
Install the binaries as
udmg-auth-proxy.exe
Create the configuration file
C:\UDMG\MFT Auth Proxy\config.toml
Panel |
---|
|
Please refer to Authentication Methods for the LDAP and SSO authentication options.
UDMG Agent Proxy
Create a directory
C:\UDMG\UDMG Agent
Install the binaries as
udmg-agent-proxy-client.exe
andudmg-agent-proxy-server.exe
Agent Configuration
Generate a SSH Key for the service.
For example with the ssh-keygen tool that is provided by Windows OpenSSH tools (Key-based authentication in OpenSSH for Windows), or by 3PP packages like Copssh - OpenSSH for Windows or Portable Git for Windows
Panel |
---|
|
If OpenSSH is not installed or not available, the PuTTY tool can be used instead.
Use PuTTYgen to generate a key pair for the agent, more detailled instructions can be found here: Using public keys for SSH authentication
After generating the key, export it with OpenSSH format:
Create a configuration file as
C:\UDMG\UDMG Agent\agent\agent.toml
Panel |

|
The password key will be used for the client authentication.
Client Configuration
Create a configuration file as
C:\UDMG\UDMG Agent\client\client.toml
Panel |

The password key will be used for the client authentication.
Setup the Windows Services

Pre-Installation / Upgrade Backups
The installation process overwrites the current files (exception: the configuration files are kept), effectively removing your modifications. Backing up these files will optimize the time it takes you to get up and running after installing or upgrading.
Note | |||||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| |||||||||
If you are upgrading an installation of UDMG from any release prior to 1.3.0.0, you must uninstall the older version before installing the new version.
It may be required to modify the work and data directories ownership or access rights and to update UDMG Server transfer rules to use new paths. The configuration files must be reviewed and compared between the old and new versions. Special attention is required for the AESpassphrase parameter for UDMG Server. It must be the path for the file that was used by the previous release and must be accessible by the new service user. It is recommended to set an absolute path in the configuration file. |
Upgrading UDMG Server
The UDMG release version is stored in the database to ensure the data structure is compatbile with the version of the UDMG components.
After upgrading the component binaries and before starting the UDMG server it is required to perform the release migration step.
The udmg-server "migrate" command handles the necessay database updates and the setting of the internal version.
Code Block |

C:\UDMG\UDMG Server>udmg-server migrate /?
Usage:
udmg-server [OPTIONS] migrate [migrate-OPTIONS] [version]
Help Options:
/? Show this help message
/h, /help Show this help message
[migrate command options]
/c, /config: The configuration file to use
/d, /dry-run Simulate the migration but does not commit the changes
/l, /list List Migrations
/f, /file: Writes the migration commands into a file instead of sending them to the database
/v, /verbose Show verbose debug information. Can be repeated to increase verbosity
[migrate command arguments]
version: The version to which the database should be migrated |
The configuration file is the one that will be used for the server mode, with the parameter for accessing the target database.
To get the list of supported target version, use the list parameter. The last version is the release version of the udmg-server.
Code Block |

C:\UDMG\UDMG Server>udmg-server migrate /c "C:\UDMG\UDMG Server\server.ini" /list
0.7.1
0.7.1-sb.1
0.7.1-sb.2
0.7.1-sb.3
1.3.0 |
It is recommended to set the verbose parameter (3 times) to follow the progress.
