From ed0a2bbc28a81b766452b6d724dc04dfc7f9f84b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Adam <22942687+SilvrrGIT@users.noreply.github.com> Date: Wed, 3 Oct 2018 12:20:30 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] Add second computer and setup note (#6478) * Add second computer and setup note Added a second computer to the config example as I was stumped for a bit on how to get a second one entered. Its obvious now but has stumped others too based on forum searches. The note is another hiccup some may run into. I listed the problem and promoted the user to search for the windows settings changes. I assume HomeAssistant doesn't want to specify firewall and registry settings to be made. * Fix a typo and update the style * :pencil2: Spelling and grammar --- source/_addons/rpc_shutdown.markdown | 11 ++++++++++- 1 file changed, 10 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/source/_addons/rpc_shutdown.markdown b/source/_addons/rpc_shutdown.markdown index d098c1d1d33..a7647690562 100644 --- a/source/_addons/rpc_shutdown.markdown +++ b/source/_addons/rpc_shutdown.markdown @@ -15,9 +15,14 @@ Allows you to shut down a Windows computer with a service call from Home Assista { "computers": [ { - "alias": "test-pc", + "alias": "test-pc-1", "address": "192.168.0.1", "credentials": "user%password" + }, + { + "alias": "test-pc-2", + "address": "192.168.0.2", + "credentials": "user%password" } ] } @@ -38,3 +43,7 @@ data: addon: core_rpc_shutdown input: test-pc ``` + +

+The `user` specified in the credentials should be an applicable user listed in `C:/Users`. This may differ from the username used to login to Windows. Depending on your settings and privileges within Windows, changes to the firewall, UAC (User Account Control) and registry settings may be required to allow this add-on to remotely shut down your computer. There are many guides available online on how to adjust these settings. +
