[Casper] Remote Control

[Nichols, Jared]

Hi-

This is what I've done, however I'm not using ARD.  I'm just using the Casper Remote Control stuff.  Is there any way to add the Casper account (I call mine netadmin) to the users allowed to remote?  It's just basically VNC, right?

Thanks

I think this is the correct settings, but give it a test.

In Sys Prefs> Sharing, click on Remote Management
Click Computer Settings...
Check "Show Remote Management status in menu bar" on
Check "Anyone may request permission to control screen" on

If you have a local administrator account, highlight the name in the "Allow access for" list and click options.
Uncheck the buttons for "Observe", "Control" and "Show when being observed".

On the ARD side, you should now be prompted with a dialogue box when select a Mac and try to observe or control, asking if you want to ask for permission.

On the target Mac, they will receive a dialogue box with the option to Share Screen or cancel.

Hope this helps!

Maybe a dumb question...
Is there anyway a client can either be prompted to accept remote desktop or to see that someone is viewing/controlling them?  I thought the Apple binoculars would reflect this but it doesn't appear to...
