We have a small IT shop of 3 people and use a variety of tools for our networking environment. For our monitoring we use Intermapper Remote Access Client which has Helper Apps you can use as shortcuts to things like port forwarded HTTP access to a device. We also use KeePass to manage our passwords and have unique entries for each device. This led to a bit of work when logging into our Tiks if we didn't save each connection in Winbox (grab the IP from Intermapper, open up KeePass, find entry, put creds into Winbox). This is just as a preference to keep all of our passwords in one place.

As a solution to this I whipped up a Helper App that takes the IP address of the device and searches for an entry in KeePass containing that IP address, then launches Winbox, passing the IP, Username and Password as parameters. As I was progressing I also added a feature allowing for connections to start up via web link. My coworker suggested I share this with the Tik community so here it is: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/798 ... %20App.zip

I don't have any immediate plans to expand on this though I suppose it could easily include other password managers if I can find good enough documentation on the API. Hopefully it helps someone else out there.

There's a Readme in the Inno Source folder that explains everything in more detail. Cheers.

Also, this program:

I'm not sure the two are related in any other fashion than Winbox is involved. This application relies on the fact that credentials are stored in a password database. Even further, you would need to use KeePass password manager specifically.

The original target for the application is Intermapper Remote Access Client, and even though you can use the web links portion without it, both would require a redesigning of the project to work with plaintext files. I don't see a need to do this, however, as Winbox natively supports it; and storing login information in plaintext is, at least from my perspective, far less desirable.
