Can this be used remotely? Edit: Yes, after turning on Remote Management on my second mac I was able to log into it using Remote Desktop, account root and no pw. It only works after getting physical access once.
Yes, I just had a coworker test it after I enabled remote management and they used screensharing.app. I didn't even get notified a user remoted in.. never used screen share, that seems awful. Had to look over and ask if he was in.
edit: I should say, I did test this locally first so I don't know if a fresh machine that hasn't done it will do the same thing and let a remote account enable root.. Would like to hear if anyone tested it remotely WITHOUT doing it locally first.
