Category Icon   Disabling the Client Software in Mac OS X 10.2

You may want to temporarily disable Apple Remote Desktop (ARD) on a Mac OS X 10.2 Jaguar client without removing the software.

  1. On the client computer, open System Preferences and click Apple Remote Desktop.

    If necessary, enter the user name and password of a user with administrator privileges on that computer.

  2. Deselect "Make Apple Remote Desktop active on this computer."
  3. Deselect the checkbox of each user account that was enabled for ARD.

    Alternatively, you can open the Terminal application and use the kill command to stop first the ARDHelper process, then the ARDAgent process.
