Environment

Novell ZENworks Configuration Management 11.3 Remote Management

Situation

Windows is configured to load %zenworks_home%\bin\NALWIN.EXE as Windows Shell.
The Remote Management policy is configured so the logged-in user gets prompted for permission on remote access

The remote administrator gets access to the device without the logged-in user getting prompted for permission.

Cause

The remote management agent only prompts the user for permission if Windows Explorer is loaded.
