Share remote screens at startup with Remote Desktop
Authored by: mm2270 on Sep 24, '03 11:56:32AM

I'm not sure I understand the point of going thru all this, when you can just launch RD on your Mac and (assuming you've set it up correctly on the other computer) simply use the Observe command. You can even make it so the little "eyes" don't show up in the menu bar, so they won't know you're watching. I have all the Macs I manage at work set this way, so I can see what's going on if I needed to, without having to run a bunch of scripts. Unless I missing something here?

Besides, doesn't RD always require an Admin password to be entered when launched? How does the script get around that? I don't see a reference to entering a password anywhere.
