Title: Re: [Fed-Talk] Screen Sharing
On the same topic... Does anyone know where the information as to who can remote your computer? I’ve found that /Library/Preferences/com.apple.RemoteManagement.plist and .launchd control the service startup and if all local users can remotely manage, but doesn’t state the users that can manage if you specify individual users... I’m interested in the individual users, where that’s stored.
Thanks

I’m using Screen Sharing in Leopard to admin servers when I need to use the GUI. The server is in Active Directory, and I have a group in our AD that can admin the server. AD users in that group are able to add the servers in Server Admin, Server Monitor etc and everything works as expected. However, when you try to use an AD account to connect to the server in Screen Sharing, you’re repeatedly denied access unless you use a local admin account.
Can anyone shed some light on this? I thought that as long as you were in the Admin group, (which those AD accounts are in the AD plugin) you could use screen sharing with those credentials...
Jared,
You must add those users as authorized to use the service.
