Something to keep in mind is that - while not at ALL limited to nor exclusively - when working in the command-line/under the hood in OS X, you're working with a variant of BSD Unix rather than Linux. One quick search turned up a recommendation for the following, written for the Raspberry Pi (so debian-based linux), Opens a new window If you're not familiar with bash (the default shell in OS X) then that's a good thing to learn, along with shell programming & python - both of which are particularly valuable as general Unix/Linux skills - along with ssh (connectivity, security nb keys). You've gotten from "here to there" before, so your overall technical capacity & understanding will be a good footing to start from :-) It's a whole world unto itself with a LOT of options, but think of it this way: It's technology, and they are computers with an operating system.
#ALLOW CONNECTWISE CONTROL MAC MAC#
Moving from a Microsoft environment to a purely Mac setup is a learning curve I wasn't particularly anticipating. Thank you so much everyone for the suggestions. I also recommend reading (re: the future of OS X management - not iOS - being via MDM): I strongly recommend that you view the first (video) from Greg Neagle (of Disney Studios, and creator of Munki) to get some background history on OS X Management, as well as useful insights into managing preferences (i.e.: settings) via Profiles, and creating a Profile from an existing setting (plist) via Tim Suttons mcxToProfile.pyġ) Opens a new window Cue it up to 23:42 to see just the part about creating a Profile from an existing (plist) setting: Opens a new window "MDM Profiles: For understanding & creating Profiles or editing them, even without Profile Manager or other means of creating Profiles, please see the following two items (see just below).
#ALLOW CONNECTWISE CONTROL MAC UPDATE#
Apropos to this, please my update to that post again linked to just above: Set your desired configuration settings and convert them to a Profile and distribute them via Munki or ARD or your MDM of choice. As it comes up often, please do note: Meraki MDM is no longer free.

Uncheck the padlock on the bottom left if options are grayed out and check any boxes which seem like ConnectWise controls.No need for the Mac Mini as a local server unless you want it.įor the policies you need to research Configuration Profiles which can be enforced through an MDM or other tool like Munki. Navigate to the Privacy tab and select Screen Recording on the left. This requires the additional step within Security & Privacy. Unable to See Screen For Catalina and above versions of MacOS, screen recording must be enabled.
Finally, check the boxes next to any options which seem like the ConnectWise controls. The contents may be greyed out, so first you'll need to unlock the padlock on the bottom left (this may prompt for the username and password). Select the Accessibility option on the left. In the Security & Privacy box, first navigate to the Privacy tab. Next, click into the Security & Privacy icon. Provide Keyboard and Mouse Control First press the Apple icon in the top left, then select System Preferences within the drop down. Furthermore, even newer versions (Catalina) may not provide screen display when connected. Newer versions of MacOS (iterations Mojave and newer) have issues with providing access to keyboard and mouse control in remote Connectwise access.
