Friend has 2 choices to allow me access via ARD - All Users or Selected users.

So I have to use his Mac username plus password but the problem is that it could be his Apple ID and he might not want that. How do I get him to create a temporary user to allow me remote access?

The list of users in the Remote Management area is from the Users & Groups in the Users & Groups Prefs Panel right? So he would have to create a new user for me. But then that wouldn't work because I'd be accessing his new user and not his user.
