HI,

we need to package Avaya Agent with specify config.xml that has the necessary settings. The Config.xml will need to be placed into User/username/ Library/Preferences/Avaya-Agent/ folder which only gets created after the app is opened the first time after installation.

Has anyone had the same scenario and found a workaround / solution. Placing files into an user profile could be done with a postflight script but the folder does not exist yet and has a lot more then just that config.xml that is being created.

Thanks in advance

if you create a package that copies the exact file into the prescribed folder, isn't the folder created automatically if it doesn't exist? i would create a DMG file here, since you can set the permissions for FUT here. install this package at first and then the tool itself. that's how i did it with my VPN client.

Since the file gets created within the user Library, it doesn't package in the same place.  I tried creating a pkg with the agent folder replaced but it doesn't know how to place it in another users folder.  Is there a way to deploy a folder into the library as a DMG? Could you share how you did that with your VPN?
