2005-10-10, 13:15: Apple Remote Desktop (ARD)...
- is pretty cool - but lacks support for secure connections (or over a firewall). But it is possible.
- First make sure, you use this settings: upload:ardadminsettings.jpg
- Disable remote administration on the administrator's Mac via "Sharing" in System Preferences.
- Do this via ssh: ssh -L 3283:remoteHostEthernetIPAddress:3283 -L 5900:remoteHostEthernetIPAddress:5900 user@remotehost
- Because ARD Agents DO launch, regardless wether you disable it in "Sharing" and ARD Admin Preferences, you have to start first ARD Admin and then send kill -1 to the following processes:
- /System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/AppleVNCServer.bundle...
- /System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/Mac...
- On Administrator's Mac connect to "localhost" (which will be forwarded to your remotehost).
- That's it!
- And now the ARDOverSshForwardScriptExample!
- PS: Ever wanted to do User-Switching by shell? This will make the active user suspend, and bring the Login Window up: /System/Library/CoreServices/Menu\ Extras/User.menu/Contents/Resources/CGSession -suspend
2005-09-22, 08:58: Star Wars Episode V...
- has some minor goofs:
- Leia speaks of her father...which could only mean step-father, since her father is Darth Vader.
- C3PO says that he doesn't know Obi Wan Kenobi (which he should since he met him in the earlier episodes)
- Obi Wan Kenobi says he doesn't own or know R2D2 (he should, he meets him in the earlier episodes)
- Han Solo uses "parsecs" as a time unit...
2005-09-21, 13:32: Are you annoyed by the iChat 2.x graphical smileys?
- ...I was. And here's how to get rid of them:.
- sudo rm /Applications/iChat.app/Contents/Resources/*.lproj/SmileyTable.plist
2005-09-19, 15:49: Ever had the problem, that your FileVault didn't have enough space?
- ...I did. My FileVault was only 12 GB big (weird - I wonder why it can grow at all!).
- Here's the solution, "grow" your sparseimage while logged in from a nother account (making sure you are not logged in with the image's owner's account).
- sudo hdiutil resize -size 25g heiko.sparseimage -stdinpass
