We do not see them. Do you have the check box for Include Hidden Accounts checked in your Settings/Inventory Options/Inventory Collection Preferences/Accounts? I believe if you uncheck that you won't see them anymore.

That was it. Thanks!

We would disable that except that we want to see our hidden admin account in the list.

It should be possible to create an Extension Attribute that shows all accounts <500 that don't start with "_" (Underscore), I think.

PS. There should also be an option in JSS to not show accounts starting with "_" (Underscore)...I'm off to the Feature Request section...

@Don, we do exactly that with an EA. Though you can just list all accounts, then use grep to find the service accounts that should be there, provided you have a fairly consistent name for them, and are not using something very generic that the grep may also pick up, like "admin"

Something like:

dscl . -list /Users | grep <hiddenAdminName>

Then a simple if/then to test for the existence of the account and populate the result with a "Yes" or "No' depending on the result of the test.

@mm2270 Thanks Mike, I'll see if I can get an EA put together that finds the hand full of hidden admin accounts we know exist in the environment.

Don, look at your FR here:
https://jamfnation.jamfsoftware.com/featureRequest.html?id=306

I posted an EA for you there that will pull all those accounts into your inventory.

@mm2270 Mike, you rock! We have several analysts working on fairly large refreshes and they need this. Much appreciated!!!
