Limiting Features in the Administrator Application
User mode is a great way to delegate administrative tasks, or give users only the
features of Remote Desktop that they really use. For example, you might not allow
nonadministrators to copy or delete les, but you might allow them to observe client
screens and send messages to client users.
You can allow nonadministrators to:
Use specic scanners, such as Bonjour, local network, network range, network Â
address, le import, and task server
Observe, control, and share screens Â
Lock and unlock screens Â
Send text messages and chat Â
Sleep and wake client computers Â
Log out users Â
Restart, shut down, and power on computers Â
Open and quit les and applications Â
Rename computers Â
Generate reports and software searches Â
Copy items, delete items, and empty the Trash Â
Create Apple Remote Desktop custom client installers Â
Upgrade clients and change client settings Â
Install packages Â
Set the client computer’s startup volume Â
Set the client’s data reporting policy Â
Send UNIX commands Â
Each of these features can be enabled or disabled independently of each other, or
you can enable all Remote Desktop features for nonadministrator users.
To enable User Mode:
1 Make sure you’re logged in as an administrator user.
2 Open Remote Desktop.
3 Choose Remote Desktop > Preferences.
4 Click the Security button.
5 Select “Access restricted to the following features” and enable or disable features,
as desired.
6 Close the Preferences window.
