Hi,



I am having a hard time with deleting a simple value from the login keychain of the logged in user via the CLI, i have tried many commands but non of them will delete the entry, is there anyone who got the golden tip?!



See screenshot for what i am trying to delete, it is a keychain entry from a SMB network printer.

Hi,



Created a discussion to fast, figured it out alread. Thanks to @Chris_Hafner for his post on a discussion!
Below what worked for me.



#!/bin/sh



#Determine the currently logged in user and save their account name as the loggedInUser

loggedInUser=$( ls -l /dev/console | awk '{print $3}' )



#Delete the specified 'network password' item(s) from the logged in users keychain.

security delete-internet-password -l "Bol.com Multifunctional" /Users/$loggedInUser/Library/Keychains/login.keychain



# Set authentication method to username & password

lpadmin -p bol_com_multifunctional -o auth-info-required=username,password



exit 0
