Manage multiple NATted Macs with Apple Remote Desktop
Okay, since Screen Sharing using iChat has been recommended a couple of times, what do you recommend as the easiest/best way for someone who's never used iChat to get up and running? (Assuming they don't have a .Mac account either, since that's obviously the easiest solution!)

Answering my own question, it occurs to me that signing up for a free .Mac trial account would be the best option, eh? Or are there others?

One more question about this: how far back, OS-version-wise, does this work? In other words, from my Leopard-version of iChat, can I use Screen Sharing on computers running Panther? I know it works with Tiger, but I doubt it does with earlier versions... That would be a bummer, as I know a fair number of people still running 10.3.x, and I've yet to see any cheap Tiger upgrade discs popping up for sale anywhere. I suppose eBay is an option, but again, a lot of people I work with would never buy from an eBay auction...

I second critcol. This is amazingly easy and the performance is really, really good even over my Mom's 768 kB/S DSL line. As a side benefit, when people she knows ask if she has an AIM account for whatever seniors chat about, she can now say yes.

You set up the AOL account for them and then tell them to turn on iChat when they need help. Works wonders with my parents. |
