What is the best way to do this minus no admin rights? I tried to limit the System Preferences but what ends up happening is all Prefs in the "Other" section are disabled as well. What is the best way to stop users from removing the profiles? This is the future replacement for MCX after all :D

enable the passcode payload, and set a password on the profile. Even local admins will need to supply the password you set to remove the profile.


Interesting!!! Let me give that a go. Ill mark as answer once I verify.

Thanks!

Maybe I am missing something but I see the passcode payload, where is the passcode actually entered?


I didn't see the option to add a passcode in the JSS.

I made a profile on Lion Server with password protection and imported it to the JSS.

The JSS seems to keep the password setting.


Hi Matt,

Maybe this article will help out:

We can add preference panes from the 'Other' section and keep them enabled.


oh, sorry, I use profile manager to create my profiles, not the JSS. The JSS does not make this setting available, but as fritz said, the password will survive uploading to the JSS.
Also, my memory apparently sucks, because it's not the passcode payload, it's in the General payload, Security section. Sorry for the confusion!
