One Time Passwords

The One Time Passwords Generation System is used to generate temporary passwords for Deep
Freeze that expire at midnight on the day they were generated.
One Time Passwords dialog can be accessed from
• Tools>One Time Passwords in the Enterprise Console. For more information refer to

• File>One Time Passwords in the Configuration Administrator. For more information refer to
Using Deep Freeze Configuration
A One Time Password (OTP) can be useful if, for example, a Deep Freeze password is forgotten or
if a configuration file was created without any passwords defined. An OTP can also be used to
provide access to a computer for an individual performing maintenance duties without requiring
that individual to know the permanent Deep Freeze password.
To create an OTP, complete the following steps:
1. Select either Password valid for one use only or Password valid for multiple uses. All OTPs
expire at midnight on the day they were created, regardless of type.
2. Enter the OTP Token from the computer that requires the OTP into the Token field. The OTP
Token for the computer is located in the logon dialog, as shown below.
3. Click Generate.
