To uninstall client software from Jaguar:
1 Open Terminal (in /Applications/Utilities).
2 With root privileges (sudo or su -l root), type the following commands:
$ rm -rf /System/Library/CoreServices/Menu\ Extras/RemoteDesktop.menu
$ rm -rf /System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/
$ rm -rf /System/Library/PreferencePanes/ARDPref.prefPane

$ rm /Library/Preferences/com.apple.RemoteManagement.plist
Setting Up Client Computers With Mac OS X 10.3 Installed
The following section contains information on installing Apple Remote Desktop 2 on
computers running Mac OS X 10.3 Panther. Since ARD 1.2 is installed automatically on
the clients when you install Mac OS X 10.3, all ARD 2 installations are upgrade
installations, even if you are setting up clients for the first time.
Installing the Client Software on Mac OS X 10.3 Manually
Apple Remote Desktop client software version 1.2 or later is automatically installed
when you install Mac OS X 10.3 or later on a client computer. You can easily upgrade
your clients using ARD. See “Upgrading Existing Client Software on Mac OS X 10.3
Using ARD” on page 33 for more information.
If you don’t want ARD to update your clients using the Upgrade Client Software feature,
you can perform a manual update.
To update the client software on the computers you plan to use with ARD, use the ARD
administration software to create a client software installer package. You need the
name and password of a user with administrator privileges on the computer to install
the package.
