Use the remote desktop client to connect to your server and you don't need anything installed on the local machine. If you don't have M$ Office for Mac then you can download the client at www.microsoft.com/mac |

Blog Entries: 1 Rep Power: 50 | Re: admin tools for mac (worth a shot) here are a few things to try ... connect via the IP address, not the hostname. Lower your screen res. Can you connect ok from an XP client using mstsc.exe? (terminal services client) I have to hold my hand up and admit to swearing profusely at a box refusing to allow me to connect ... then I realised I hadn't actually enabled remote access for administration. |
