Did we figure out how to change the default desktop pic or login icon? Removing the symlink and reapplying it does not seem to work.

@br0g It's very different in Yosemite compared to Mavericks (which was, of course, more complicated than 10.8 and earlier) - simply create a .png with your own background, logo etc. Keep the center of the image clear so it doesn't obscure or interfere with the login icons or text dialogs.

Save as com.apple.desktop.admin.png in /Library/Caches/ and make sure you chmod 555 and chown root. In my testing yesterday I noticed significant lag at logout if the permissions weren't set properly.

Hi there,
just a little comment because it stole some time here...
Apple limited the PrivateKeySize of any Connection to 4K.
This ofc only effects Safari, Chrome and co - Firefox comes with it's own settings.
Since we will have more then 4k long keys in the Future, I'd suggest the following setting which resolves it:

#!/bin/sh

# Enable Certificates with a Keysize of over 4K

defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.security RSAMaxKeySize -int 32768

I have never created a script before can someone help me. I just need to have it skip the whole first boot setup process. I have a Account already created for the local account via pkg file.

Not sure of anything else.
Then how do I deploy this via System Image Utility.

Hi,

Here's a link to our first boot script blog that gives you an example and a full breakdown: http://www.amsys.co.uk/2015/01/creating-first-boot-script/

and a more recent one that swaps a lot of it for custom config profiles: http://www.amsys.co.uk/2015/02/creating-config-profiles-instead-first-boot-script/
