Apple Remote Desktop

Cheat sheet for managing Apple Remote Desktop:

Restarting the Apple Remote Desktop Agent, if it for some reason doesn't work

sudo /System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/Resources/kickstart -restart -agent

Configure the Apple Remote Desktop Agent to allow control/observe - when the fresh install doesn't want to let you in. Note: you probably need to change the user hlk into something else.

sudo /System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/Resources/kickstart -activate -configure -access -on -users hlk -privs -all -restart -agent -menu
These hints are from the Apple Remote Desktop: Configuring remotely via command line (kickstart).
