When logging into remote sessions, some Dameware Mini Remote Control (MRC) users want the system to default to permission required from end user. This article describes how to configure client settings so that upon remote connection they will be prompted when a technician tries to remote connect.

Accept or reject connection by user.

NA

On the remote machine client agent, Dameware Mini Remote Control, go to Properties > Additional Settings tab, and ensure that the "Permission Required" is checked.

           

 If you want to keep the "Permission Required" enabled but want to continue remote connection when the machine is locked and no user is actively logged on, unchek/disbale the "Also when Locked"
        

You can create a new client agent using Mini Remote Control Client Agent MSI Builder and select these settings in your new build.
After creating a new build, redistribute using GPO.
