Remote Desktop Picking up wrong Mac Address

Does RD 3.6 only work with machines plugged in via an ethernet cable, or en0.
I have an iMac running Mac OS X 10.8, with remote management enabled.
When I look at the RD console, the computer ip address is correct, name, dns name.
Server properly pings the client and I can ssh to it no problem.
BUT, the mac address is wrong.  The mac address is the mac address for en0.
This computer is using its wifi right now which is on en1.
How do I validate what ip address RD is trying to use to remote login to the client?

Hi Sunny,
The Host IP i am pinging is returning me the different IP address. Where as the one mentioned in the error message pop up is an alien IP for us. It does not belog to Q, D or P servers even. The host file is perfectly fine. Dont know where exactly is the portal picking up this address. Has it got somethig to do with the SSO?? What if the SSO is not there?? I suggest in that case it should atleast open the GUI and ask for logins. However it is simply not connecting.
Regards,
KM

  • Remote Desktop on the OS Mac during connection to the Windows 8.1 PC returns a warning "End of file" and quits

    I start the Microsoft Remote Desktop app on the MAC.  A verify Certificate comes up - I click continue.  An alert pops up "End of file".  I have allowed remote access on the Windows 8.1 PC.  I have also allowed the Remote Desktop
    to work through the firewall.
    I have the correct default gateway ipv4 address.  I believe I would not get to the verify Certificate window if not.  What am I missing?

    Hi,
    I notice that you mentioned the correct default gateway ipv4 address. Please let us know why and how you use this IP address.
    In the settings of the remote desktop client App, the gateway refers to the Remote desktop gateway, not the default gateway.
    In other word, if you do not have a RD gateway, just leave the setting blank.
    If issue persists, please provide us log file for further research.

  • Wrong mac address listed in verizon router for a device on my network

    Hi folks,
    I'm having some routing issues and hope you can help.
    I've got the standard  verizon actiontec MI424WR-GEN3I router for my standard LAN and then a 2nd router (linksys wrt54g) for a testing environment I set up, to help isolate the traffic.  I'm using the LAN to WAN strategy to set up the two networks.
    everything seems to be working fine except for the fact that my devices behind the actiontec router cannot ping/access any devices behind the linksys router, but the devices behind the linksys router are able to ping and reach the devices behind the actiontec router.
    my actiontec subnet is 192.168.1.X while my linksys subnet is 192.168.2.X.  I followed this tutorial on the verizon forum to hopefully get the two networks talking correctly: http://forums.verizon.com/t5/FiOS-Internet/Multiple-routers-and-subnets-can-t-access-across-subnets/...
    an issue I see in my actiontec router is that it appears as though the mac address is not correct for what I'd imagine is the WAN port on the linksys router.  the actiontec is showing the MAC as 00:13:10:73:72:6a while the sticker on the router itself and through the ARP command in the command prompt shows the MAC for the linksys router as 00:13:10:73:72:69.  I've power cycled both routers 2x and nothing has changed.  I currently have the ethernet cable that goes from my actiontec to the linksys unplugged so hopefully it'll drop from network list eventually and reaquire an address when it's hooked back up, hopefully correcting the wrong MAC address issue.
    I'm a bit perplexed as to why I can get out to the internet just fine on my 192.168.2.X network with a botched MAC address, but I can't ping the network that's just a hop away...even after following the guide mentioned above.
    any ideas here? 

    You can release the address yourself.  It's a function under my network, network connections, broadband connection (whichever one is connected), configure connection
    dhcp lease Release
    Then recycle the router
    After you set up the static route did the ping work? - ensure that you have icmp enabled on the linksys.  If you don't get a ping response it indicates an issue with the static route rule.

  • Macbook pro trying to connect to wrong mac address?

    Hey everyone,
    I'm running on a 2010 Macbook Pro OS X 10.7.2.
    Basically, my 309g-m stopped working the other day. I've tried reinstalling the drivers and software, but it still refuses to print (I get stuck at "looking for printer"). I have, however, noticed that when I'm adding a printer in system preferences, the printer is listed as "Photosmart Premium C309g-m [F1EDA7]." However, after connecting my printer to my network (via the printer), the page printed listed that my Hardware Address (MAC) is "78:e7:d1:f1:ed:a8" - So I think my Macbook is trying to connect to the wrong mac address.
    Any ideas? 
    P.S. I've tried to connect via IP and my computer cannot find the printer. 

    No, that all looks good.  Your printer's unique "name" is HP plus the last 6 digits of your printer's MAC address.
    On the front of the printer: Setup > Network > WIreless Network Test.  What does it say about the printer's wireless radio?
    Say thanks by clicking "Kudos" "thumbs up" in the post that helped you.

  • How do I simulate a right-click in Windows when connected with Remote Desktop 8.0 for Mac OS X?

    When connecting to a remote Windows 7 OS from Mac OS X 10.8.5 with Microsoft Remote Desktop 8.0.24091, I'm not able to simulate a right-click with the Apple magic mouse.  
    On an older version Microsoft Remote Desktop Client version 2.1.1, I can hold down shift+ctl on the Mac and click the magic mouse to simulate a right-click in Windows.  With this new version RDP 8.0, I can't find any way to simulate a right-click,
    other than to select "Swap mouse buttons" under settings, and then every click is a right-click and then I'm no longer able to left-click (which is even worse).  I've tried several key combinations and nothing seems to work.  Am I missing
    something simple here with the new RDP 8.0 application, or is the right-click simulation not (yet) functional?  
    Any help is greatly appreciated, thanks!

    In order to make use of the right-click inside an open session you have three options:
    Standard PC two button USB mouse
    Apple Magic Mouse: To enable right-click, clickSystem Preferences in the dock, click Mouse, and then enable Secondary click.
    Apple Magic Trackpad or MacBook Trackpad: To enable right-click, click System Preferences in the dock, click Mouse, and then enable Secondary click.

  • Microsoft Remote Desktop Connection Client for Mac Not Working

    I recently purchased Office 2011 for Mac.  I work at home on my Mac at work on Windows 7.  I also have a work laptop, running Windows 7, that comes home with me.  My goal is to RDC my Mac to the laptop running Windows 7 to reduce desktop clutter, and easily work between machines. 
    I CAN NOT FIGURE OUT how to get Microsoft RDC:mac to connect to my pc. 
    I know that the pc allows remote desktop connections because I often use RDC at work from PC to PC.
    SOME PLEASE HELP!  I have spent hours and hours trying to figure this out and I think it is the time capsule that is causing the problem. 
    My research has found that I have to use port 3389 to get this done.  I am pretty computer savy but when it comes to networking I guess I have no clue.  I have tried just about everything a and can't figure it out. 
    Thanks to anyone that can dedicate some time to configureing my time capsule to allow for RDC.

    I cannot quite put together your whole network..
    I work at home on my Mac at work on Windows 7.  I also have a work laptop, running Windows 7, that comes home with me.  My goal is to RDC my Mac to the laptop running Windows 7 to reduce desktop clutter, and easily work between machines.   
    So this is in local lan.. the PC laptop running win7 and the Mac loaded with RDC software. If this is local lan then the issue is nothing to do with TC.
    That is only if you are trying to connect from work. to home through the router at work and TC at home. On local lan there is no blocking to ports. Are you using the local network IP of the PC Laptop?
    Explain a bit further as it needs a bit more clarification.

  • Remote Desktop 3 on Intel Mac

    I am having a difficult time setting up RD 3 on my Intel Mac, (Mac Book, or Mac Pro) These will be my main RD machines. I can see the other macs and vnc machines on my lan but I am unable to add them to my All Computers list as well as upgrade any mac. It just gets stuck with verifying. Many times when I try to quit the program on my Mac Pro it freezes and will not close out. I tested RD 3 on an Emac 1.25ghz and it worked great. Does anyone have a fix for the newer faster Intels?
    The 10.4.8 update did not fix the problem.
    Thanks

  • Apple Remote Desktop multiple ports on one address / ip

    I am using Apple Remote Desktop (ARD) version 3.5.1 and I want to add computers to the list. I have several virtual machines running on an VMWare ESXi host. VMWare enables screen sharing via VNC but with different ports for different VMs.
    So I have this:
    ESXi host ip :      xxx.xxx.xxx.xxxFirst VM vnc port:  5901Second VM vnc port: 5902 ....
    I am able to connect to each those VMs via
    open vnc://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:5901
    I can also add the first VM to the ARD computer list. But when I add the second VM it overwrites the first VM because the ip address is the same. Is it possible to workaround this problem?
    Thanks for your help!

    I do not use the native vnc of each VM but instead use a screen sharing feature of the ESXi host (which is also included and works the same way in VMWare Fusion). So to connect to a VM I use the IP of the host machine and then different ports.
    I am aware of the .vncloc-files option but I want to connect via the Apple Remote Desktop application.

  • Remote Desktop Error Message for Mac

    Hello I am receiving an error messages while trying to log into the remote access on my MAC. The message is "Unable to connect to remote PC. Please provide the fully-qualified name or the IP address of the remove PC, and then try again". Can
    someone please assist?

    I belive you've got the answer. I've had a hard time with the RDP client on my MAC too. It rarely seems to accept the Hostname of the machine. I've been required to use the IP address. Meanwhile, it's fine from my PC.

  • Remote Desktop via F5 Firepass (Mac OSX 10.7 Lion to Windows XP Professional)

    Hi Everyone
    I'm trying to log-in to my Windows XP Professional PC at work from my OSX 10.7 Lion Mac using F5 Firepass.
    On both Safari and Firefox I can access the 'Terminal Servers' page.  There are two links on this page to my machine, one of which uses java and the other uses something else. 
    On Safari, clicking on either of the links just loads up a sort of 'template' page with unclickable links like 'Datopic's Office Computer' and 'Full Screen Mode' along the top. 
    On Firefox, I have the same problem as Safari with the non-java link, but using the Java link I can actually see the log-in screen for my computer.  Unfortunately, although I can move the mouse cursor and click on things (e.g. the 'Username' box), I can't type anything - I just get a sort of 'beeping' sound from the computer as if I'm trying to type on a screen with no input fields.
    Can anyone tell me from this what the issue is?  Please bear in mind that my technical knowledge in this area is limited beyond belief, so the solution could be really simple.
    Thanks
    Datopic

  • Macbook Pro remote desktop unable to connect to my office PC. Genius Bar told me the only solution was to wipe my Mac. Really??

    I work remotely using my Macbook Pro (OS X 10.5.8) to connect to my office PC. I have always had issues using my "computer name" with the RDC but have no problem when using the IP address. Two weeks ago my company upgraded their server and ever since I have been unable to access the server. My coworkers (who use Macs) are not having the same problems as me. My IT guy was able to connect using my Mac, his security clearance and IP address. However, I no longer have the option of using the IP address to log in - per my IT guy. My IT guy is a PC guy so he suggested that I take my computer to Apple to see whats blocking me.
    I met with Apple support at the Genius bar yesterday and was told basically it could be a problem with my computer and I needed to wipe it clean and start over. This was the proposed solution to the problem but the Mac guy I spoke with didn't seem completely sure this would solve / is the cause of the problem. Does anyone have any suggestions for figuring out what the root problem is prior to me wiping my Mac? Has anyone had issues working with remote desktop connection from their Mac connecting to a PC? 
    I appreciate any help possible!

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    There are no songs on your iPod, right (since it was restored)?
    Make sure the software on your computer is up to date...
    iTunes
    iPod Updater
    Update iPod's Software
    Also, try connecting the iPod via a different USB port.
    You may want to try putting the iPod in Disk Mode prior to connecting it and see if you are able to restore it (while it is in Disk Mode)...
    Putting iPod into Disk Mode
    Finally, if you can't get the iPod to restore, then try connecting it and opening My Computer. Does the iPod show up in My Computer? Try right clicking it and going to Format. Does anything happen?

  • Remote Desktop shows wrong Ethernet-ID

    Hello,
    Remote Desktop shows a wrong Ethernet-ID if you have an MacBook without built in Ethernet.
    If the MacBook is connected to LAN by Thunderbolt-Ethernet-Adapter and you scan the LAN with RemoteDesktop
    you will be shown the AirPort ID, not the Ethernet-ID!!!
    In that case the Ethernet-ID is useless...
    Can someone fix this?
    Regards,
    Olaf

    If memory serves, ARD reports the "primary" ethernet address. This is defined as the first item in the "Service Order" list in the Network control panel. Click on the gear icon and select "Set Service Order..." to change the ordering.
