remotemanagement provider produces false negative in 10.11 #92

Closed dayglojesus closed 8 years ago

dayglojesus commented 8 years ago

When you start the Remote Managed service (ARDAgent) it creates a "flag file" -- for lack of a better workd -- named RemoteManagement.launchd.

When you stop the service, this file is removed.

In 10.10 and below, this file was created at /private/etc/RemoteManagement.launchd.

Apple has changed the location of the file in 10.11, it is now...

/Library/Application Support/Apple/Remote Desktop/RemoteManagement.launchd

This results in a false negative and the provider responds by perpetually attempting to start ARD, even though the service is already running.

Fix is in develop. Ready for release 3.8.3.
