I tried to push out an application with Casper without problem, but when a user first launch the application, the application will prompt the user to enter the configuration / preferences (which should be common to all uses) and eventually saved to each individual users' ~/Library/preferences as plist. Assuming that I can duplicate this plist for all users, but how can I push this plist with casper allowing it to be copy to the individual user's preferences, when the user first launch this application.
All helps will be appreciated.

I would generally do this by repackaging the app in composer as a .dmg and fill existing user templates.
you could also just package the plist and have it install into /Library/Preferences/
I usually like to have the vendor package and then another package that installs the configuration items like the plist or a licence number. so if i change my configuration, i can easily update that package with out having to touch the application package if that makes sense
Hi Guys,
Many thanks for the quick response. As suggested, I have copied the plist into /Library/Preferences, and updated the user access right. Then package it up with composer as dmg and pushed it out. All is working now.
