How do I add a computer when the ip and dns address do not match?

I am using ARD to connect to a few computers at a remote site. The site has a Static IP, as well as each machine on the local network. One of the machines works fine (a Mac Mini running ARD 3.6), but that was set up a while ago, and any other machines (running ARD 3.6.2) I try to add will not work.
Basically, I want to add a machine with an IP address of the location (ex. 50.50.120.181), and the DNS name of the computer on the local network (ex. 192-168-1-21.lightspeed.stlsmo.sbcglobal.net). This is how the Mac Mini is set up and works. However, every time I try to change the DNS name, it changes the IP address to match (192.168.1.21). Since I'm connecting remotely, that doesn't work. If I try to change back the IP address, it just reverts it right back.
How do I get ARD to stick with the IP address I tell it to??

Open System Preferences
Click on Accounts
Click on the padlock and enter password
Click on login options
There you should see an option to disable "automatic login". You should also notice some other options there that you may or may not want. They should be pretty self explanatory.
The Security panel has an option to require password after sleep or the screen saver is invoked if you need it.

  • How can I authorise my computer when the email address no longer exists

    Yesterday, due to software problems I had to have my computer wiped. I reinstalled iTunes and loaded all my music, films etc back on (these are kept on a hard drive) with no problems. I now have about 120 songs/videos that will not play as they were purchased with an email address that no longer exists. iTunes keeps asking me to authorise my computer but I do not know the password. Is there any way I can get these purchases back? Not techy at all, please help, I've been at this all day!!!

    You will need to call Apple at 800-275-2273 and ask for the Account security department.  They will have you sign into the My Apple ID site at id.apple.com using the Manage Apple ID button and generate a temporary support pin.  It can be found in the lower left corner of the Password and Security section once you log in.
    Once you give them the support pin, they will ask for one other piece of information from the account in order to verify that you own it.  This can either be one of the current security questions, the credit card linked to the account, a device serial number, or a device verification code that they can send you.
    Good luck!

  • HT202879 how do i add a line to the top and bottom of a text box only

    i have a text box in my Pages document but i need to be able to add a line tot he top and bottom only to my text box. can i pleae get some help.

    Hello alegna23,
    To add a line just to the top and bottom of a text box, you will need to add the two lines as shapes.  Follow the steps below to add a line to your document:
    Add a shape
    Click Shape in the toolbar.Click the arrows to see more shape styles.
    Select a shape to add it to the page.
    In step 2, select a line and use the squares on the end of the line to help resize the line.  You can find the full article here:
    Pages Help for Mac - Add and edit shapes

    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

  • How do I fix this error? The bookmarks and history system will not be functional because one of Firefox's files is in use by another application.

    I have tried numerous solutions being posted in this support forum. I went in and deleted my places.sqlite file so that it created a whole new profile. I then tried to restore my bookmarks, and nothing happened.
    I went in and discovered I had a places.sqlite.corrupt file. As suggested by one of the links provided in other articles, I deleted the other places.sqlite files, and then renamed the corrupt one as just places.sqlite. I restarted firefox and still nothing.
    Please don't just copy and paste the links to the two articles that have no yet helped me. I need to find out how to fix this because I had a lot of important information in my bookmarks!

  • How can I access my computer when the keyboard letters don't respond and I need to input my password?

    My computer is password protected, but for some reason, the letters in the keyboard are not responding. I press the "Caps lock" button and the "num lock" button and they seem to operate fine and the mouse is also working properly, but it seems like the letters are locked and won't input.
    Please help

    Hit the num lock button again. Num lock forces only the numeric keypad underlying keys to work as a  numeric keypad, and the rest of the keyboard won't work.  Unfortunately Apple stopped including the numeric keypad hidden keyboard key labels on its keyboards.  They used to include them.  They are known as mouse keys: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.5/en/cdb_moskys.html

  • HT1727 How do I deauthorize a computer whne the hard drive has crashed and is not recoverable ?

    How do I deauthorize a computer when the hard drived has crashed and is not  recoverable ?

    You cannot directly deauthorize a computer that's not working or to which you no longer have access. You can authorize a total of up to five systems, so unless you've hit that limit it's probably not really important that you deauthorize your dead unit now. If you really want to deauthorize that system now, you can go into your iTunes Store account and there will be a "deauthorize all" button. You can then re-authorize the computers you're using.
    Note that you can only use the "deauthorize all" option once per year, unless something's changed very recently.

    How do I add other computers to the WIFI network?

    I assume the all of these computers will be Wi-Fi ready. If so, all that is needed is for each to connect to your Wi-Fi network. Now depending on what you want each of these computers to do, you would configure each as appropriate. For example, if you want to share files between computers, each computer that will be sharing these files must be configured for sharing.

    I need to know how to authorize or deauthorize a computer when the email address attached to it no longer exists
    I can't access the account because your system doesn't recognize the last password -- and it won't let me change the password because it says the birthday information is wrong -- it's not.  There is no help item for that either, so somebody PLEASE tell me how to get around this problem.  My music is being held hostage.

  • How do I add a link to the list of links under the "My Account Link"

    Q) How do I add a link to the list of links under the "My Account Link"?
    A) Edit any of your portlet web services and go to the "Advanced URL Settings" and then "User Configuration URL". If you type a path in this box, a link displays on the My Account page.
    You need to restart your portal web server to see results immediately because the display page is cached.
