Hi guys



I'm setting up configuration profiles for the first time and followed things here to get my jss setup:

The mdm is showing in Profiles preference pane but the machine in the jss keeps saying MDM Managed: No



I tried deleting the machine from the JSS and removing the JAMF framework and running recon again.



Has anyone else come across this?

I've seen this a couple of times on Linux installs. Can you confirm your configuration?



Sometimes the answer is 'wait 24 hours' and it magically works. I don't have a root cause at the moment.

I had a terrible time with this at first as well. There are quite a few potential problems.



On the client computer, try to run "sudo jamf enroll". If it's still not managed, check the logs on your client computer. It should give some indication as to where it's failing.



Your server needs to have:
- "Certificate Based-Communication" enabled
- "Enable Push Notifications for OS X v10.7 or later clients" enabled
- a SCEP-enabled Certificate Authority
- a valid Push Notification Certificate



If you have all of these things and it's still not working, try renewing your CA certificate and then restarting Tomcat. I'm not sure if you would need to, but it might also help to renew your APN certificate.


Thanks guys I think I will wait until Monday. I don't think I have SCEP-enabled Certificate Authority. But I'm not doing any iOS stuff.


If you are using the built-in CA, it is SCEP enabled. Even though you aren't doing any iOS management, Lion and Mountain Lion's configuration profiles are being handled in the same way. They both use APNs and both need SCEP-enabled CAs.


Shamefully I screwed up on certificates all ok
