I would say that this is a horrible thing to do. But, eh. Kids these days are in to some weird crap. Just don't be surprised when you stumble across some of it.
Is it on by default? Can you toggle it on/off? Because at times on my say a home network there might not be a need, and encryption would only slow down process...
You know, it's not solely because of the bias that your comment gets buried. It was juvenile and contributed nothing, plus if you can show me another operating system that had this built in functionally on a system level ten years ago I'll digg every comment you ever make.
Just innovation for the mac. VNC and its cousins have been around for quite some time. (Mac and PC). The level of integration into the file browser is what is new. Having it be this easy is true to form for the mac. It is not new, just improved.
The bias of *my* comment?!!! Did you READ the article?! My contribution was a spotlight on the small, ridiculous nature of the article, the fact that we made promote to the front page of digg.com. As for showing you other embedded functionality from 10 years ago - I have been using tty, telnet, and 3270 emulation in Unix and Xenix since before you were born (I'll bet). You best add me as a friend so that you can better digg all my comments! ;)
Woot. I'm so glad it wasn't just me that back to my mac wasn't working for. Then again, I think they supposedly improved it in 10.5.2 upgrade (however I am no longer a .mac subscriber so I can't test it). I did find that a simple DynDNS account and mapping your desired port (5900) the system you want to control remotely will help get you in screen sharing wise (just enter your IP:port or your dyndns account: sub.homelinux.org:5900).Enjoy.

Or forward port 5200 to the IP of the computer you want to access.

No, they are talking about using the 'secret' functionality in Screen Sharing - no one ever said Apple invented anything new.
