Have to help someone set-up a new MBA for a first-time Mac owner and I want to do this using the Screen Sharing application in OS X.
If I talk this person through the start-up process over the phone is the following the correct sequence for initiating a first-time screen sharing session? I have only tested this with the 2 Macs in the house over the local network.
Then I would put the vnc information in my browser and type in the details and password of the user information created.

- Open System Preferences
- Go to Sharing
- Make a checkmark next to Screen Sharing
- Click the + button under the list of users allowed access
- Click New Person
- Add the details and password for this person
- Select the name to add it to the list of users allowed access
- Give the person who wants access to the Mac the vnc://xxx.xxx.x.xxx/ information shown in the Sharing dialog box
Then I would put the vnc information in my browser and type in the details and password of the user information created.
