I need to connect a new MacBook Pro to the company network and then log in once to get the account running.
Unfortunately, I live very far away from the company, so it would be great if I could do it remotely.
Also pressing Cmd+R or Cmd+S during boot does not work, I still get to the login screen, so this seems no solution.
**My idea:**
I still have the old MacBook with a working VPN connection to the company network. Is it possible to share it somehow?
[ ROUTER - Wlan] -- [Wlan -- [ VPN - Tunnel ] -- OldMB -- en0 ] -- [ en0 -- NewMB ]
**Question:**
What would I need to configure in the old MacBook to route all eth0 packets into the tunnel? We use OpenVPN.
And do I need a special cross cable to connect the two Macs?
Will the routing be enough for the new MacBook to request an IP per DHCP?
