Accessing Your Macs with Screen Sharing
You can also remotely control a Mac using the Screen Sharing utility built-in
to OS X
. Add a Screen Sharing item to your Secure Desktop and VPN Tracker
will connect to your VPN, open Screen Sharing and take you directly to your
remote Mac’s desktop.
To access your Mac using Screen Sharing:
‣ Click the triangle at the bottom of the Secure Desktop to
switch to edit mode
‣ Drag the Screen Sharing icon onto your Secure Desktop
‣ While you’re in edit mode, click the Screen Sharing icon
‣ Enter the IP address of the Mac you want to control
‣ Click the arrow again to leave edit mode
Click the Screen Sharing icon and Secure Desktop will connect you directly to
your Mac in your remote network.
Accessing Your PC with Microsoft Remote Desktop
If you have a Windows PC in your office (or in another remote network), Se-
cure Desktop can connect you directly to it. First, make sure that Microsoft
Remote Desktop has been configured and that you can access your PC using
it. Next you can add your remote PC directly to your Secure Desktop.
To access your PC using Microsoft Remote Desktop Connection:
‣ Click the triangle at the bottom of the Secure Desktop to
switch to edit mode
‣ Drag the Microsoft Remote Desktop icon to your Secure
Desktop
‣ While in edit mode, click the Microsoft Remote Desktop icon
‣ Click Select and browse to your Documents > RDC connections folder
‣ Select one of the Microsoft Remote Desktop connection (.rdp) files
‣ Click the arrow again to leave edit mode
Now you can access your remote Windows PC simply by clicking the Micro-
soft Remote Desktop icon on your Secure Desktop.
