Thought I would throw this into the memory hole: How to Enable Screen Sharing (Remote Control) on a Mac
Mac OS X 10.7:
Change to unload to turn it off. Can be run unmodified if run using the “shell” Action Script variant.
launchctl load -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.screensharing.plist
Mac OS X 10.6.2:
/bin/sh -c
"/bin/echo -n enabled > /Library/Preferences/com.apple.ScreenSharing.launchd"
Mac OS X 10.6.3:
/bin/sh -c
"/bin/echo -n enabled > /private/etc/ScreenSharing.launchd"
I’ve verified 10.7 works… not sure about the 10.6 variants.
Chicken of the VNC
is a Mac remote control utility that can connect to the Mac once Screen Sharing is turned on. I presume if you are on Windows you can just use vanilla VNC to control the target Mac.
