I've got Mavericks Server running on a Mac mini that runs various
services for my network. I've got the Server application installed on
two other computers on the network: a Mac Pro, and a MacBook Pro for
remote management. 

When I launch the Server application on the MacBook Pro, it
automatically connects to the Mac mini without asking. But when I launch
it on the Mac Pro, it presents me with this screen, where I must click
"Other Mac" and then another screen where I must select the Mac mini to
connect to it, followed by a third screen to specify the administrative
user credentials (which are already filled in from the key chain). 

I'm trying to figure out why there is a difference in behavior.
Obviously, I would prefer the automatic connect behavior exhibited on
the MacBook Pro. 

The web searches I've done so far offer no help on the topic.

I've looked for a way to specify automatic connection in the Server
application, but don't see any such settings. 

As far as I can tell, there are no preference files in
~/Library/Preferences or /Library/Preferences on the MacBook Pro that
might cause this different behavior. Perhaps such defaults are stored
elsewhere.

Any ideas are welcome!
