I thought there was an MCX setting for previous versions of the JSS. However, to read the data the jamf binary is doing:

defaults read /Library/Preferences/com.apple.RemoteDesktop.plist Text1

thus you could do create a script that does the following:

sudo defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.RemoteDesktop.plist Text1 "WINNING"

hi....

that could do... but que thing is... in casper there is a place we can put in manually info 1 through info 4... there must be a way to transfert that info into machines... otherwise... these fields are in casper for nothing...

Yes, take a look at the help page for ARDAgent's kickstart-

sudo /System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/Resources/kickstart -help

Specifically, the ones you're looking for are:

sudo /System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/Resources/kickstart -set1 -1 "some text"

Change to -set2 -2, -set3 -3, etc to set up to the 4 fields.

Whoops, double post

Thanks mm2270....

but i wish it could be automatic from my info in casper instead of doing lines by lines, machine by machines... all my info ARD 1 is already in casper suite... so i wish a method that the casper console could send those info to the computers automatically

I would check out the setARDFields command in the Jamf binary - type "jamf help setARDFields" in terminal.

yeah... that works... BUT... i need to enter manually from terminal each field one by one since they are the inventory number of each computer...

is there a way to mix that command line... and to go grab my info that is aleardy written in casper database ?

What version of Casper are you running? I am on 8.73 and don't see a place in a machine's record where I can enter info for the ARD fields.

Same here. On 8.73 I don't see where those strings would show up in a computer record. In fact, in Casper Remote 8.73 I don't see where to add those to a record. Is this just something that happens during initial imaging or at some other stage? We don't use these fields, so I'm unclear where they even get set for a record in the database.

same version... these fields are in auto run...

but the thing is my tech entered the info after imaging the computers... oups......

i found it....

those fields are in auto run... so i just need to set only auto run to set the fields and not to reimage the computers and thats it... pfffffff.

thanks to all...
