Hi Jared,<div><br></div><div>"Best solution" depends on what your requirements are. ARD gives you the status bar icon, but Casper VNC gives you logging, and the security of not having the service running all the time, only when called for.</div>

<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>
<br>
Thanks!<br>
