I was actually the author of this article, and am about to update it to address some of the criticisms. We have two machines locked down to only certain functions, down to only certain IP addresses even being allowed to communicate with the machines, and still managed to execute this - it did prompt Allow/Deny windows, but I find that intellectually different than a lack of password prompt.

I have dug through security preferences extensively and can't see what setting could be changed or updated to disallow this function.

I've updated the article to address and respond to some of the criticisms and feedback.
