- I absolutely hated having a MS product installed on my Mac so I moved to using Office in my Win8 VM as well. I use to use Cord, but grew tired of it. I tried to MS RDP tool for MAC for all of 30Sec then uninstalled it. Like Alaerus I love the Server Manager on Win8. It to is the only reason I switch from Win7 to Win8 on my VM.

Windows computers
To manage the following Windows OS versions, use the client that's included with Configuration Manager. For more information, see How to deploy clients to Windows computers.
Supported client OS versions
Windows 10
For more detailed information, see Support for Windows 10.
Windows 8.1 (x86, x64): Professional, Enterprise
Windows Virtual Desktop
Windows Virtual Desktop is a desktop and app virtualization service that runs on Microsoft Azure. Starting in version 1906, use Configuration Manager to manage these virtual devices running Windows in Azure.
Similar to a terminal server, some of these virtual devices allow multiple concurrent active user sessions. To help with client performance, Configuration Manager now disables user policies on any device that allows these multiple user sessions. Even if you enable user policies, the client disables them by default on these devices, which include Windows 10 Enterprise multi-session and terminal servers.
The client only disables user policy when it detects this type of device during a new installation. For an existing client of this type that you update to this version, the previous behavior persists. On an existing device, it configures the user policy setting even if it detects that the device allows multiple user sessions.
If you require user policy in this scenario, and accept any potential performance impact, use one of the following methods to enable user policy:
In version 1910 and later, use client settings. In the Client Policy group, configure the following setting: Enable user policy for multiple user sessions.
Microsoft Office is also available for Mac, in which case you can open any Office document format. If you haven't bought iWork or Microsoft Office for Mac, you can use Apple's TextEdit application or download a free office software package such as OpenOffice.

Extended Security Updates and Configuration Manager
The Extended Security Updates (ESU) program is a last resort option for customers who need to run certain legacy Microsoft products past the end of support. For example, Windows 7. It includes Critical and/or Important security updates (as defined by the Microsoft Security Response Center (MSRC)) for a maximum of three years after the product’s End of Extended Support date.
Products that are beyond their support lifecycle aren't supported for use with Configuration Manager. This includes any products that are covered under the ESU program. Security updates released under the ESU program will be published to Windows Server Update Services (WSUS). These updates will appear in the Configuration Manager console. While products that are covered under the ESU program are no longer supported for use with Configuration Manager, the latest released version of Configuration Manager current branch can be used to deploy and install Windows security updates released under the program. The latest released version can also be used to deploy Windows 10 to devices running Windows 7.
Client management features not related to Windows software update management or OS deployment will no longer be tested on the operating systems covered under the ESU program and we don't guarantee that they'll continue to function. It's highly recommended to upgrade or migrate to a current version of the operating systems as soon as possible to receive client management support.
Mac computers
Manage Apple Mac computers with the Configuration Manager client for macOS.
The macOS client installation package isn't supplied with the Configuration Manager media. Download it from the Microsoft Download Center, Microsoft Endpoint Configuration Manager - macOS Client (64-bit).
For more information, see How to deploy clients to Macs.
Requirements and limitations
- Installing or running the Configuration Manager client for macOS on computers under an account other than root isn't supported. Doing so can prevent key services from running correctly.
Supported versions
macOS Catalina (10.15) (requires Configuration Manager site version 1910 or later, and Configuration Manager client for macOS version 5.0.8742.1000 or later)
macOS Mojave (10.14)
macOS High Sierra (10.13)
Linux and UNIX servers
Important
Configuration Manager version 1902 drops support for Linux and UNIX as a client. Deprecation was announced with version 1802. Consider Microsoft Azure Management for managing Linux servers. Azure solutions have extensive Linux support that in most cases exceed Configuration Manager functionality, including end-to-end patch management for Linux.
The Linux and UNIX client installation packages aren't supplied with the Configuration Manager media. Download the Clients for Additional Operating Systems from the Microsoft Download Center. In addition to client installation packages, the client download includes the script that manages the installation of the client on each computer.

This article contains instructions to install the unixODBC Driver Manager for use with all the versions of Microsoft ODBC Driver for SQL Server on Linux and macOS.
Important
Delete any driver manager packages installed on your computer before you install the unixODBC Driver Manager. Installing the unixODBC Driver Manager could cause a failure of an existing Driver Manager.
Installing the Driver Manager for Microsoft ODBC Driver 13, 13.1, and 17
The driver manager dependency is resolved automatically by the package management system when you install the Microsoft ODBC Driver 13, 13.1, or 17 for SQL Server on Linux or macOS by following the instructions in the following articles:
Installing the Driver Manager for Microsoft ODBC Driver 11 for SQL Server
Microsoft Server Virtual Machine Manager 2019
(SUSE and Red Hat Linux only.)
Using the Installation Script
Important
These instructions refer to msodbcsql-11.0.2270.0.tar.gz
, which is the installation file for Red Hat Linux. If you are installing the Preview for SUSE Linux, the file name is msodbcsql-11.0.2260.0.tar.gz
.
To install the driver manager:
Make sure that you have root permission.
Go to the directory where the MicrosoftSQL Server ODBC Driver download placed the file called
msodbcsql-11.0.2270.0.tar.gz
. Make sure that you have the *.tar.gz file that matches your version of Linux. To extract the files, execute the following command: tar xvzf msodbcsql-11.0.2270.0.tar.gz.Change to the
msodbcsql-11.0.2270.0
directory and there you should see a file calledbuild_dm.sh
. You can runbuild_dm.sh
to install the unixODBC Driver Manager.To see a list of the available options, execute the following command: ./build_dm.sh --help.
When you are ready to install, and if your computer can access an external site via FTP, execute the following command: ./build_dm.sh.
If your computer cannot access an external site via FTP, get unixODBC-2.3.0.tar.gz
. You can get unixODBC-2.3.0.tar.gz
from http://www.unixodbc.org. Click the Download link on the left side of the page to go to the download page. Then click the appropriate link to download unixODBC-2.3.0 (not unixODBC-2.3.1). unixODBC-2.3.1 is not supported with this release of the Microsoft ODBC Driver 11 for SQL Server. Execute the following command to begin the unixODBC Driver Manager installation: ./build_dm.sh --download-url=file://unixODBC-2.3.0.tar.gz.
Type YES to proceed with unpacking the files. This part of the process can take up to five minutes to complete.
After the script stops running, follow the instructions on the screen to install the unixODBC Driver Manager.
You are now ready to install the driver. For more information, see the ODBC driver installation instructions for Linuxor macOS.
Manual Installation
If the installation script is unable to complete, configure and build the proper driver manager yourself.
