Rich,
I am also interested in any information about the ease of use and
reliability of Apple Remote Desktop 2.2. As I understand it, it does
essentially the same functions a Timbuktu Pro, but I'm not sure of the
capabilities or reliability of either. Also I wonder whether the admin
computer has to be running the same Mac OS as the computer at the other
end of the "line"?
Any information appreciated. The price of either would make me not
want to buy one "just to see".
Thank you,
Don

I tried it out, running a clamshell as a client with 10.3.9 from my G4
running
10.4.4 as administrator and it seemed fine. The clam has the 2.2
client
upgrade.
Then I tried the reverse, with the G4 as client and the Clamshell as
admin. The
G4 was "unavailable." According to the docs a G3 computer should be
fine
administrating ARF 2.2. All the sharing stuff is switched on. the
calm is on
wireless airport but the G4 is on ethernet connected to the Base
station.
Sharing works fine both ways. Is there something else I should look
for?
