    If the Sharing pane is locked, click the lock and then enter the user name and password of a user with administrator privileges on the computer.

  2. Select Remote Management in the Sharing pane.

    If the client computer is running Mac OS X version 10.4 or earlier, add comments or notes by selecting Apple Remote Desktop in the Sharing pane and clicking Access Privileges.

  3. Click Computer Settings.
  4. In the Computer Information fields, enter comments or notes.
