Remote Desktop Manager 10.1 Beta

Amazing work. Been waiting for a Apple Remote Desktop thing for RDM. Can't get it to work though (Comes up saying it cannot connect). Still getting the same issue with SSH to a Cisco Switch (Unsupported Packet 60). Good work thought :)

I will ask Joe to jump in the conversation next week as soon as he gets back. He is the one that is currently working on our own Apple Remote Desktop implementation.

Hi Karl,

The setup I had while testing was :

Screen sharing activated under Preferences/Sharing.

In the advanced options, "Anyone may request permission to control screen" was checked. Any other options were left unchecked.

Does this match your current setup?

So glad to see OS X Screen Sharing! Thank you!

Were you able to test it lat?

Screen sharing activated under Preferences/Sharing.

In the advanced options, "Anyone may request permission to control screen" was checked. Any other options were left unchecked.

Does this match your current setup?

Yep, that matches my settings perfectly. We are using OSX 10.10 on the server.

We have a new version available:

http://download.devolutions.net/Devolutions.RemoteDesktopManager.Bin.10.0.7.0.zip

http://download.devolutions.net/Setup.RemoteDesktopManager.10.0.7.0.exe

== Change History ==

- Fixed an issue with the default TeamViewer executable name

- Improved the Roboform group import

- Minor UI fixes

Been on a travel last days and I come back home to great news.

Keep up the good work guys.

Hi,

Looking for the new option "Added a default type path in the data source settings", but cannot find it. Is it available for SQL data source?

Thanks and regards

Michael

Yes it is in Adminstration->Data Source Settings

Please ignore my last post. Just found it within administration menu.

I can't get the Apple Remote Desktop functionality to work, it just says "cannot connect to host" although I can ping it just fine.

lat and Karl,

Unfortunately, I have not been able to reproduce your particular connection issue so far.

I can successfully connect to a 10.9.5 and 10.10 host with ARD authentication.

Are you able to connect with other VNC clients?

The Apple Remote Desktop client isn't the same as VNC... I turned on Remote Management under sharing, clicked Anyone may request permission to control screen. Firewall is off. If I do a port scan of the Mac from my Windows PC, it sees that port 5900 is responding.

OS X version is 10.9.5.

We do not support guest connection through "ask permission" right now.

I have to add my user to the "only these users" list to be able to connect.

I added my user to those users and still "unable to connect to host". The OS X machine has an IP address registered on the network and like I said, I can see that port responds.

Just to make sure we have the same settings, have you granted permission to Observe and Control the screen in your user security options?

Yes, every checkbox possible for the user is checked off.

Yep, that is the error I am getting. If I use VNC, it works fine.

The beta version that will be released later tonight will contain more debug information for this particular error.

If possible, could you please attach RDM's log file after getting the error? You can also email it to jlafontaine@devolutions.net if you don't want to share it publicly.

The log should be located inside the application's folder.

That is exactly it Jonathan.

I can't find the log in C:\Program Files (x86)\Devolutions\Remote Desktop Manager, what's the file name?

We have a new version available:

http://download.devolutions.net/Devolutions.RemoteDesktopManager.Bin.10.0.8.0.zip

http://download.devolutions.net/Setup.RemoteDesktopManager.10.0.8.0.exe

== Change History ==

- Added a close tile in the session dashboard

- Added a custom VPN similar to the generic VPN add-on

- Added Digest authentication support for embedded Chrome

- Added full credential repository support for the Intel AMT Web Management

- Added the new Spiceworks session type

- Added the VPN specific image support in the tree

- Intel AMT digest authentication works embedded (auto login)

- Minor UI tweaks

Jonathan,

I updated to the latest version and noticed that this appears in the RemoteDesktopManager.log:
