Is it possible to use a profile to add a wireless network to a system at time of imaging? Double clicking it works fine, but I require no user interaction.
thanks.
Answer
can you automate wireless setup with a .mobileconfig file during imaging?

if the file resides in /var/db/ConfigurationProfiles/Setup
in theory it will get imported
i wound up moving them to another location and importing them when i wanted them imported with a
profiles -I -F /path/file/config.mobileconfig
i have found that one configuration setting per profile is a bit easier to deal with and the apple auto importing thing only imports all profiles 10% of the time. so i look in my location, and install all of them and it always works.

+10Awesome!
ummmm... How? :-)
I was thinking that I could put the .mobileconfig file someplace with composer (I was thinking along the lines of /Library/Prefs/Systemconfig) and then script the "profiles" command to install it at reboot.
not having any luck with that line of thought thus far.
