Hi everyone, This seems to be very hit and miss on Yosemite. Traditionally, we enable fast users in Managed Preferences. User level enforcedDomain : .GlobalPreferencesKey: MultipleSessionEnabledValue: True This works perfectly on 10.9 and below. 10.10 seems to have problems with user level enforced mcx, sometimes it applies, sometimes it doesn't. How is everyone else managing fast user switching in yosemite? I have tried defaults write /Library/Preferences/.GlobalPreferences MultipleSessionEnabled -bool 'YES'which doesn't seem to work either. I have also tried a custom setting via configuration profile but no luck with that also. Any ideas?

Hello All,Running the following command:/Applications/Privileges/Contents/Resources/PrivilegesCLI --status > /private/tmp/status.txtcreates the file named status.txt but it is empty (stdout is not redirecting to the file)I was wondering if someone that has Privileges and or those that would be willing to install it on a machine and try the command can get it to work?  I've tested this on Big Sur, Monterey, and Ventura all with the same result.For what it's worth, I've tested the commandls -al > /private/tmp/filename.txtand it works with no issue.  It's as if the PrivilegesCLI binary is missing something to be able to redirect the stdout to a file.

I am looking at wanting a Powershell script to access the JAMF School API to pull a list of devices and their WiFi Mac addresses.Any hints or directions for a start with he JAMF API?

We've recently run into an issue where a user accidentally logged in to their personal Microsoft 365 account rather than the company account, which creates some data headaches as company files were syncing to a personal account. I'm trying to find a way to collect the Microsoft 365 and OneDrive usernames into an Extension Attribute so we can audit them, but I haven't had any luck. They don't seem to be stored in a plist anywhere, and I haven't been able to find a terminal binary that will report the login names. Any ideas? Thank you!

Hello, I inherited a Mac fleet that we use JAMF pro to manage. I work for an educational institution, and we have several labs that we have bound to the domain. The previous admin implemented NOMAD this past year and now we have an issue when users change their AD passwords. The new password on those lab system is not recognized, it doesn't not seem to sync to AD, so they have to keep using the old password. I found the configuration that the admin used for the Nomad settings in JAMF but in referencing different forums/threads there doesn't seem to be many settings set that relate to the NOMAD password behavior, I've never dabbled with it so I'm trying to figure this out on the fly. I just thought I would post this to see if my suspicion is correct and for some kind of direction. below is the plist that we are using. thanks in advance  <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1

Hello everyone!I'm trying to update our Mac in JAMF Pro (Cloud) to the latest MacOS versions and I'm seeing a lot of computers being Supervised: No and missing our management account in Local User. The funny thing is, they are checking in and inventory updates but I can't seem to send commands or even try to re-enroll through API, I get 401. How can I re-enroll them to have the management account back in and without them to wipe and re-enroll. There must be a way to re-enroll without impacting the user ?

I wanted to be able to have quick way of finding all of my managed Macs with a T2 chip. I made a smart group that tracks by model and it seems to work well, but I don't know if there's a way to use an extension attribute to query each system for the presence of a T2 chip. We can do this with the processor architecture. Can we do this to detect a T2 chip?

Title pretty much says it all. I have my own mac to be independent of my main organisation. On it I work on documents from many organisations some of which are confidential. My (very helpful) mac support says that JamF is take it (so my organisation have access to my machines, including apps, files, and the ability to wipe it) or leave it (and not have access to email/calendars, etc).I've asked whether I could be administrator for my own machine (and only that one), but it's a no go, apparently.Any guidance anyone can offer on what I'm getting into if I accept would be really appreciated.

I have paired my Yubikey with my mac. Pin has replaced my system password.I want to check the certificate expiry date in Jamf Inventory. I do not see the concerned certificate in Jamf inventory/computer/certificates !! I do not see the Yubikey certificate in my keychain either !!Any idea where the cert is stored ? How make it visible in Jamf ?

Hi,We've a number of Intel and M1 Labs Mac's that are running macOS Monterey for this academic year, at least so we'd planned ... They were updated to 12.6.1 to allow maximum deferral of Ventura, which is of course coming to an end imminently ...Testing various options, using Jamf's Restricted Software feature:On M1 Mac's we're seeing that you have to be logged on to and authenticate as Local Administrator to proceed with the updateHowever with Intel Mac's this simply isn't the case, even with the Restricted Software setting in place, a standard user can simply instigate the update, without any issue Might anyone know if I am doing anything wrong here? Or is this simply as it is? As if it is, this could present a potential issue in our Labs ... Thanks for any input / advice

Hello, I am trying to deploy a script that will ask users if they've filled out and submitted their time sheet. If they click Yes, the message goes away. If they click No, it launches Safari and brings it to the front. I can get it to run on my machine just fine, but when I try to deploy it via Casper Remote or a policy, I get an error saying that "<" is an invalid character. In the very short script, I've quadruple checked, and can't find a < character at all. Can anyone offer any help as to what's going on? For reference, here's the script (website it goes to has been changed for privacy): display dialog "Have you completed your timesheet?" buttons {"Yes", "No"} default button 2 if the button returned of the result is "No" then tell application "Safari" to open location "http://google.com/" tell application "Safari" activate end tell else nu

Hi Folks , I have the problem in our company that the screen saver switches on after 5 minutes (as we have created it in the settings in Blueprints) during video calls. According to Jamf support, there is currently no other way. For this reason I am starting this request here, because with your support we can bring this request forward with enough likes and interaction and possibly make this feature possible in the future so that the Mac recognises when the user is in a call and the screen saver does not come on. Maybe Jamf can initiate something with Apple. Thanks folks.

Hello guys! I'm new to the community and kinda new to jamf pro itself.Could probably someone assist me with the next feature implementation.We have 2 local accounts created by a policy for our macbooks (besides the end-user's). They are: LAPS configured with this script and a local admin with a company admins shared password.Filevault enabling policy is now configured to Apply Disk Encryption Configuration, Default Filevault Policy, Requires fv2 At next login. This policy affects the scope of a Smart computer group with the next criteria:  FileVault 2 Partition Encryption State is not Encrypted.My question is: what's the bets way to activate FileVault for laps and the second local admin without any end-user notification?Thanks in advance.

Hi Everyone, Just wanted to see if anyone had any success enabling HTTPS on macOS.All my DP's are macOS. On-Premise Jamf. I can see enabling Apache on macOS is straight forward but what exactly needs doing to the httpd-vhosts.conf & httpd-ssl.conf files. If thats correct? I did add another into the DMZ for external facing devices, as the majority are WFH.But the security team is questioning AFP or SMB through the firewall. My company will not go down the Jamf Cloud route, as they are limiting cost expenditure. Right now, I'm telling users to connect VPN first before using Self Service etc.

I have a user who is encountering a Jamf Connect window that will not go away.  There is no option to exit out of the window, it is also grayed out so he cannot enter any credentials.  I searched the forum for similar issues but couldn't find anything.  Has anyone encountered this?  I confirmed he is in the AD security group for Jamf Connect, and he is the first user to run into the issue.  Any advice is greatly appreciated! Thanks, Kerry 

Hello Commuinity,I am currently looking for the easiest and best way to update all apps via patch management. Can you tell me how you do it and what is the easiest and most automated way? Gladly also via external tool SaaS?

Hello Everybody, do we have some Users who is using this Script for the Company ?I saw this youtube video and was wondering if it really works. Could anyone can explain step by step what to do ? Iam new in Jamf an want to understand it, please help me to have a better understanding.

Hello there,Newer Jamf Pro user, I've got a system of about 200 devices setup and running right now which has been done basically with user-intitiated enrollment, but now I'm getting ready for us to start rolling out pre-stage.What I would like to do, is once setup assistant finishes, and the user gets to the desktop, I want to push a message with a policy using restart options that tells them to not touch their machine for 15 minutes at which point the machine will restart. Thought process here is to allow the computer to do all the software installs etc, so they don't mess anything up.I was trying to do this with "enrollment complete" but what happened is that the message would pop-up right overtop setup assistant if they didn't get through it quick enough. So I'm trying to get it to wait until it hits the desktop. I tried using "login" trigger, but it didn't seem to work, it says it ran, but never showed up.I appreciate any insight you could offer. Thanks!

Hi, i am looking to deploy Velociraptor via Jamf and wanted to know if anyone had any experience with this? Deploying Clients :: Velociraptor - Digging deeper!Curious what steps were taken to deploy it. Any help is appreciated. Thanks

So I've looked through various posts but haven't seen an exact way to do this yet. We've got Crowdstrike deploying properly but have two machines return the error below. We tried to re-install Crowdstrike, but I think it's a bad install, and we might need to remove it entirely and try again. Script result: Error: This machine is already licensed I tried to craft an uninstall to do it, but it's not working the way we had hoped. Hoping someone might know a quick fix or a best practice for silently uninstalling the sensor remotely.

Hi all! Question: we are sending out a policy using jamfHelpers "fs" window and I'm pretty sure in the past one was unable to exit out of it entirely (which is what we desire) but recently, I've seen (and tested) that hitting "command-Q" actually works to exit the fs window. Sometimes the fs window shows up then disappears after a few seconds on its own. Is this normal and/or anyone has seen before? Just curious. Test machines are M1 on Monterey. Here's our script: #!/bin/bash # Variables jamfHelper="/Library/Application Support/JAMF/bin/jamfHelper.app/Contents/MacOS/jamfHelper" # Message prompt "$jamfHelper" -windowType fs -heading "Test" -description "Hello! Try exiting this window" -icon /usr/local/jamf/logo.png  

Happy 2023 from Jamf's Tech Thoughts team! We launched Tech Thoughts just a few months ago, and so far the response from the community has been incredible. We took a short hiatus over the holidays, but we're glad to be back and ready to kick off the new year with some new and interesting posts that we think you will enjoy. To kick things off, we wanted to take a look at where we've been and where we are going with Tech Thoughts. First of all, thank you to all of the Jamf employees and community members that have submitted posts, given us feedback, and helped to spread the word. We started this project with the idea to create a collaborative space where everyone can share ideas with the community, and we wouldn't be able to create that space without your help. We have some ideas for what types of topics and information that we might want to cover in the future, but we also want to hear from you about what you'd like to read about. Is there a particular theme, topic, or technology that y

We have to push a new certificate out to our config profile. We are able to push it out and it gets installed correctly as we can see it in our Keychain Access.  The issue is we want it to be trusted always.  How do we set that in our Config Profile to be set to trusted.  Just a quick warning, I am not great at command line statements, so the simplest and easiest is best.  Thanks
