Screen sharing

[Hendrik van Eeden]

Tom,
Thanks for the info.  The mini is running fine and it shows up in the shared section and I can access XTension with both versions of X2Web.  When I try to initiate screen sharing it tell me to check and make sure that Screen Sharing is turned on on the unit that I am trying to access.  That tells me that maybe the screen sharing got turned of during the power glitch.
I was hoping that some smart person on the list would have a way to turn that on remotely for the next time this happens.
I guess for now I have to get a monitor hooked up.

Henk
