Auditing Hardware You can get a report about the hardware of any client computer. Hardware information can be accessed using a number of different reports. Although some basic hardware information can be found in the System Overview report, several more focused hardware reports provide more detailed information. To get a basic System Overview report: 1 Select a computer list in the Remote Desktop window. 2 Select one or more computers in the selected computer list. 3 Choose Report > System Overview. 4 Select or deselect hardware items as desired. 5 To search using new data, select Rebuild data for report. 6 Click Get Report. The newly generated report window appears. Getting Computer Information Client computers can submit comments or notes to supplement System Overview reports. These comments and notes are made on the client computer. To make changes on a client computer, you must have the name and password of a user with administrator privileges on the computer. To add comments or notes when submitting in System Overview reports: 1 On the client computer, open System Preferences and click Sharing. If the Sharing pane is locked, click the lock and then enter the user name and password of a user with administrator privileges on the computer. 2 Select Remote Management in the Sharing pane. If the client computer is running Mac OS X version 10.4 or earlier, add comments or notes by selecting Apple Remote Desktop in the Sharing pane and clicking Access Privileges. 3 Click Computer Settings. 4 In the Computer Information fields, enter comments or notes. 5 Click OK. 130 Chapter 8 Administering Client Computers
