No there is no indication to the end-user that you’ve left the building, but you could use Casper Remote to flash a message on their screen immediately following as a work around. I’m not really sure if you are assuming this is when you aren’t speaking to the other person on the phone and just tell them you’re off? Or if you wanted something like ARD that I believe has indicators in the menu bar, etc. In the meantime...<BR>

On the Reboot tab change the reboot options to Do not reboot, edit the reboot options message, and check the box display message if not rebooting.<BR>
<BR>
Fortunately, I haven’t run into the part where you want to remote work on people’s systems and they kind of freak out because there is no indication at all that someone is connected...even if the technician is set for prompting the end-user.<BR>

I see that you can ask users if they want to allow remote control of their system, but is there any way to indicate to them that full control has been returned to them? I imagine this may be a limitation of VNC and I may need to look at ARD for the best solution for remote control.<BR>

Thanks!<BR>
