Hi,
Just looking to confirm if anyone else has come across this issue. I've got a secure site with a number of Macs that require management. I have applied all the recommended firewall rules but found that Remote appears to require port 5999 to be open to initiate a screen share / control session. Is this correct?
Cheers,
Warwick
Ok so it helps if your using the most recent version of the remote app. Sorry.
+31You can disable remote desktop by telling kickstart to turn off the
agent
sudo
/System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/Resources/kickstart
-deactivate -stop
screen sharing simply enables itself through one file
com.apple.ScreenSharing.launchd
If you change "enabled" to "disabled" it should work
example:
echo -n disabled > /Library/Preferences/com.apple.ScreenSharing.launchd
