Unattended access is one of the most useful settings in Sunlogin: once enabled, nobody has to stand next to the device and click approve.
Prerequisites
Set an access code first, then switch unattended access on. The device must stay powered, online and running the client; enable start-on-boot too.
- Set an access code first
- Switch on unattended access
- Enable start-on-boot
- Disable system sleep and hibernation
Fine-grained permissions
Unattended does not open everything. Decide separately whether file transfer, clipboard sync, command line and camera may be used after connecting.
- Separate switch for file transfer
- Separate switch for clipboard sync
- Restrict command line and camera
- Optionally require one confirmation per connection
Keeping it stable
Unattended access depends on the client staying alive. Add it to your security software whitelist so it is not cleaned up, and check online status regularly.
- Whitelist the client in security software
- Avoid automatic update reboots mid-work
- Check online status periodically
- Pair with remote power-on for powered-off devices
FAQ
Do I still need to sign in after enabling it?
Yes. Unattended only removes the on-site approval step; connections still require account verification.
Can I connect after the device reboots?
With start-on-boot enabled the client returns within a minute or two and the device goes back online.
