When I try to Screen Share my MB from my MBP it no longer asks for a password. If I try to screen share my MP from my iMac it DOES ask for a password.
I never told it to add the PW to the keychain on my MBP and am wondering if my MB is vulnerable because of this.
All 3 computers have BTMM enabled.
I don't know if it's because they're all on the same local network or its a BTMM, or a VNC thing.
I WANT it to ask for my password.
Any ideas?
Thanks

I too have the same scenario between my iMac and my MacBook Pro.

iMac asks for password, MacBook Pro doesn't.

If anyone could provide some insight, it would be much appreciated.

EDIT: Except I DON'T WANT mine to ask for a password.

Your password(s) have been saved to your keychain. Open keychain access (in your applications / utilities folder - keychain access app. and try to find the BTMM keychain and delete it.
