Thread-topic: Apple Introduces Apple Remote Desktop 2
If you want the non-Admin Users to access ARD to remotely control screen
from 700 different computers then you would need 700 Apple Remote
Desktop licenses (which licenses the administrative application). Mac OS
X v10.3 clients ship with the ARD client installed (which the new
version would upgrade like the move from 1.0 to 1.2).
However, if you are just going to have them view and control the screens
of clients, you could always use a VNC client application to access them
now that ARD 2 is VNC based. (You can also access and control Windows
and Linux boxes).

Hurray! Nice feature list too. Allowing non-Admin Users access to ARD
Administration is great. The manual is a little lacking in detail on
how this works. There's the one-time Guest access option and then the
standard access control list (who gets to do what). It does not
specifically state that you can add non-Admin Users into that list, I
hope the new feature list statement means that you can.
More importantly - does anyone know the licensing model details?
Specifically:
If I grant 700 non-Admin Users access to ARD to remotely
control/observe screens, do I need to buy 700 unlimited client
licenses?
What we have here are computer labs in K-12 education and we want
teachers (non-Admin) to be able to monitor/show/assist student lab
stations.
