Shure this works, but we have a secure solution for Windows that's used by enterprise clients. Unlike all other programs available, we don't use a P2P connection between the computers. All data goes through a central server and both the contol-console and client-console are https-clients connecting to the server.
This makes central management easy and is also very secure.
A few of our clients also use Mac's and they are asking us for a solution.
Also, a connection has to made possible immedialety by persons who don't even know what a computer exactly is.. So configuring a connection or setting up a VNC will be impossible: try asking it your grandma and you'll know why :-)

Hi,

i want to port one of my Delphi applications to Mac OS X.
Before I start (don't even have a Mac yet), I need to know if it's possible at all.
It's a client side part of a remote admin program.
For this program, I need to control the system and get info about the system like:
- check if user has admin rights

It is an UNIX env. So admin rights is nearly meaningless.
However the `id` command should help you

- get a list of available screenresolutions and change it
- inject keypresses and stuff like that ...

Instead of reinventing the wheel you should use the Apple Remote
Desktop or a VNC client (I recommend you a SSH tunnel)

OS X Leopard provides a VNC Server

It is the *recommended* way


 I've asked in Mac-forums, but no one seems to be able to answer it.
When I mentioned FreePascal,  I've got no reply's at all anymore.
Talking about closed communities ....

Does anyone knows where to get this information ?

TIA,

Paul
