Remote Desktop reports Mac OS X 10.4.9 after Mac OS X 10.4.10 Update is installed

Issue or symptom

Remote Desktop 3.1 may report that a computer has Mac OS X version 10.4.9 even though is has actually been updated to Mac OS X 10.4.10.

Solution

To verify which Mac OS X version is installed, check the Build information, which should be correct even if the version is not:

Mac OS X version	Build (PowerPC-based Mac)	Build (Intel-based Mac)
10.4.9 (client or server)	8P135	8P2137
10.4.10 (client)	8R218	8R2218 or 8R2232
10.4.10 (server)	8R218	8R2218b

 
Note: If the Mac OS X Server 10.4.10 Update (Universal) is installed on a PowerPC-based server, the Intel build number appears.
