Hi,

I have very little Mac experience. When VNCing to our Mac in work, I'm presented with the Mac login screen and not the current user's screen.

Being VNC, I'd expect to see the current screen.

Anything I need to change on the Mac to get this working?



I'm sure in the previous OS (Snow Leopard?) we could VNC into the current desktop.

Yup, on the Mac, perform this command :

sudo defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.RemoteManagement VNCAlwaysStartOnConsole -bool true

Edit: if you don't know how to do that, you might want to ask someone who does to do it ;)
