Safeguard Fingerprint logon - Lenovo laptop(s)

I am having a real time attempting to get the fingerprint logon solution to work.  I'm attempting to utilize this with Lenovo laptops.

The first question I've got is - is it possible to not have Fingerprint software installed on the system, install Safeguard, and then later install Fingerprint software (the proper version of course)?  Will Safeguard pick it up and use it then?

Secondly, is it possible to have multiple users on the same laptop log into POA using Fingerprint?

Third, does Safeguard recognize multiple Fingerprints on the same fingerprint profile?

  • I hate to answer questions with questions, but:

    1)  What model Lenovo laptops are you using?

    2)  What version of the Thinkpad Fingerprint Software are you using?

    3)  Do you have Fingerprint option set in the Logon mode field of your Authentication Policy?

    We use Lenovo laptops exclusively at my company, and we've had pretty good luck with getting the fingerprint software working.  Our models were pretty old (T60/61), but once we got the fingerprint software upgraded to the proper version (we are using v5.8.2 b4462 for the Upek readers, and I'm not sure what version for the Authentic), it worked great.

    To answer your second and third question (and as always the Sophos guys will correct me if I'm wrong) but from my experience, it is possible to have multiple users log on to the POA using their fingerprints, and you can definitely register multiple fingerprints for each individual user.
