Hi guys Anyone have a solution to this? I have tried this but what every i do i cannot get it working. https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4138324?start=0&tstart=0

One of the biggest complaints we get from field techs is that the QuickAdd.pkg installer takes too $^&%@ long to complete. Is there a reason we can't decouple the install of the jamf binary from the actual enrollment process? This way Installer.app can finish and the tech can move on? Right now Installer.app waits for the postflight script to exit, which may take a considerable amount of time...it would be better for our techs if the QuickAdd.app installer was quick and painless. :)

Set this up at a client, let it do a full sync. Downloaded and enabled 607 updates, 105 GB. VM has another 80-90 GB of free space. Ran software update, pointed to default Apple servers, on a newly-imaged 10.8.3 client. 4 available updates.Pointed the client to the NetSUS, ran software update. 1 update available. Tried all manner of re-sync, disable all, re-enable all, no dice. Found another discussion here where it was questioned if the NetSUS supported 10.8 updates. Is it supposed to? If not, any fixes, or are they tied up with, uh, a "future version" of Casper Suite? https://jamfnation.jamfsoftware.com/discussion.html?id=5610

Has anyone figured out how to disable the Apple ID setup screen when a new user logs into a Mountain Lion machine? Using the setting for the iCloud prompt from Lion (below) does not seem to be related. defaults write com.apple.SetupAssistant DidSeeCloudSetup -bool true

I know this is old hat, but we are just now deploying 1200 new Mac Mini student computers and the teachers are pretty tired of having to explain to skip the Apple ID and start using the Mac prompts. I'd like to get rid of this setup window at first login and I have tried several things to no avail: I did all of the things in this post: https://jamfnation.jamfsoftware.com/discussion.html?id=4999 I tried to do an MCX profile from this post with the Managed Preferences tool in the JSS and using the settings outlined here by Greg Neagle: http://managingosx.wordpress.com/2012/07/26/mountain-lion-suppress-apple-id-icloud-prompt/ but I'm still getting the login prompt. Then I started digging through core services and I noticed that the "Setup Assistant" plist isn't in Core Services. In the Setup Assistant App Contents I found a plist in the resources folder called: com.apple.macbuddy.icloud.user Inside of this plist are two strings. The first is "Launc

Our network admins are transitioning us from the Bluecoat Web Filter to the Symantec Client Site Proxy (v1.00.024). In testing I am able to point my test machines at the proxy and am asked to authenticate. The issue I am having is that it continually asks me to reauthenticate every few seconds. We are an AD shop and user accounts are Managed, Mobile. Test machines are 10.7 and 10.8. Symantec has been very little help so far. Their current suggestion is to set up Authoxy as a "bridge" proxy on each Mac. Not exactly a great solution. Thanks for any input or info,Tom

Whil i am trying to supervise the iPads i am getting error "Backup file specified in options is no longer available". Actually these devices were supervised before but students Erased everything on the iPad so the Supervised profiles were also erased. When connected them back AC then AC identified them and Supervised them again but when I get to checkout at this stage I get the aforesaid error message.

I'm currently testing out FileVault 2 on one of my test machines and so far it's pretty straight forward. But there's something I can't understand or get my head around. When I use the private recovery key to unlock a drive it prompts me to create a new password for the account I want to login with. I get that, because I've forgotten my old password so I should create a new one. That makes sense. But it doesn't seem to matter what password I type into it as it just shruggs it off. The computer is connected to our AD and I've tried several different password, it doesn't matter.It works fine though on the local admin account but not on the network account.If I use the old password I get in. Weird. Any thoughts regarding this?

Hey community, I have a couple of questions regarding deploying Adobe CS6 Design & Web. I've created a package using AAMEE and just tried to deploy it to my iMac. While it was ultimately successful, it was extraordinarily slow. I timed it at taking 1 hour, 1 minute, 8 seconds to complete. The package was pulling over a wireless N access point with pretty much only me on it at the time, so this worries me for deployment throughout our school district. I noticed throughout some of the install that the jamf binary was stuck at ~97% CPU usage and it seemed to be pulling data from the network for much of the install(curl was quite a busy process too). Should I perhaps have the package cached before I begin installing? I was under the assumption that it would pull the package down and then begin the installation. Also, is there any way to make sure my products are serialized? I opened them all, and no pop-up asking for anything came up, but I did notice deactivate was greyed out

Hey all: So i have a 10.6 server working as, among other things, a distribution point. It's working fine over AFP, but I'm trying to set it up as HTTP. The problem is, it only seems to work if I set Everyone permissions to Read on the CasperShare. I may be misunderstanding something, but I thought selecting, in the JSS, "Username & Password Auth is Required" and entering the casperinstall user creds I have, would have the JSS authenticate via those and be able to grab whatever it needed. As it stands, that errors out. If I add Everyone back in and give them Read, it works perfectly fine. I can't give Everyone read permissions as the box is also our main file server and CasperShare will show as a mountable volume and, well, give everyone access to everything. Love how helpful everyone is here. Thanks in advance for any responses. Michael

So, I'm trying to package up the behemoth that is Apple's Logic Studio 2. Using Snapshot in Composer v8.7 on a MacBook Pro running 10.8.3 with 250GB available Disk space. Everything went well, no issues until I clicked the "Build as DMG" button.At that stage it created the Archive (percentage slowly climbed to 100%)But when it got to the "Creating DMG Archive" stage, it took a very long time. So long that I had to leave it running overnight only to find it still sitting at that point the next day!I have also tried the 'Build as PKG" option and with that it tends to get stuck at the 20% stage. Any pointers or questions as to what I could try to make this work would be muchly appreciated!

It seems the IP address is the primary identifier for machines. If a machine changes IP we cannot remote into it until the inventory is updated, which is once a week (by default, of course). Is there a way to change this primary identifier, and if so will it help with the issue of being able to remote into a machine with a new IP? Or is the only solution to increase the inventory collection period?

I made up a standard pkg for QuickAdd but it isn't installing Self Service. Any got any ideas why?? Cheers

Hello all, I am currently running the new 8.7 Recon with an 8.7 JSS and my recon is dragging when collecting applications. It hangs up at every turn. I ran it both with the GUI and in terminal in verbose mode and this appears to be consistent. It is not native to one particular application but all of them. Any thoughts?

Hey.I'm facing a small issue that I want to fix.We deploy VMWare Fusion and Virtual machines via Self Service. Under /Library/Application Support/VMware/VMware Fusion/Shared it saves a file called vmInventory that lists the virtual machines that are shared on the local machine (as they are located in the /Users/Shared/VM folder. Once a VM is added to the system via Self service I would like to add them to the file automatically. cat xxx > vmInventory is not working as it not combines both files rather then overwriting the content of the existing vmInventory. Any other idea? Thanks in advance.

HiI'd like to get more of the AD groups and OU details imported with the Macs into JSS. Is there an easy way to do this? Cheers,

Dear JSS Guru's, I am currently having an issue after capturing Adobe CS6 individual application snapshots the serial isn't captured along with the install data, Was was working previously and now no good. There is no error logs i can find in my knowledge to find the root cause. I use system admin (root) account for all composer chores. is there something I'm doing wrong while installing or is this a common problem?

Hello, I've ben running into a issue when I netboot Macs in my lab. All Macs will netboot successfully (they boot up) but will not be in a diskless state. I can tell by opening disk utility and checking the mount point of Macintosh HD. If it's /Volumes/Macintosh HD the netboot session is diskless. If the mount point is /private/var/netboot, the Mac has not booted in a diskless state and Casper Imaging will crash out when I attempt to image Macintosh HD. This issue is maddening because in a lab of 10 Macs, I can netboot them all and usually 2 of the ten will boot non-diskless. I was wondering if anyone has seen similar issues and has a fix. All the lab Macs are netbooting off of an Xserve running OS X 10.8.2 server and are using the same netboot NBI. My lab does have one or two gigabit unmanaged switches between the client and the server. I verified that diskless is selected in Server.app. The netboot itself is 10.7.5 loaded with Casper 8.6. Also, older netboots have been gi

Hi all I recently made some renamed the /Applications/appname.app/_MASReceipt folder on our machines so that the app store versions of the iLife suite could update using our internal software update server. Since doing so, users can no longer print photos in iPhoto, the following error appears: No Available ThemesThere were no themes located. Until at least one theme has been installed, this feature will be unavailable. If I put the _MASReceipt folder back in its original location, the error message doesnt occur. Is anyone else making the _MASReceipt change also seeing this issue?

Hi all,With the recent fix from Jody and the Adobe folks, I wanted to update our group's CS6 Photoshop to 13.0.4 triggered by logout and available in Self Service.I tested the package I made locally and all was good after 3 minutes of an install. I ran it on a test machine through Self Service and 3 seconds went by and I received a success message but it was still at 13.0.3. I reset the test machine, tried the logged out method and got the same thing- 3 seconds and I was fully logged out. No indication there was an install and sure enough, still at 13.0.3.What didn't I do? The package updates to 13.0.4 when I run it manually.Machine info: 10.6.8Adobe CS6 Production Premium Suite installedJSS v8.62Thanks in advance!

Hi, I am new to this, but I cant figure out how to stop our client machines (10.8.2) from checking for updates. I used composer and make a software update .dmg with my settings (set to not check) and FUT, etc. And that does not seem to work. We don't want them to check at all for any system updates or App store updates. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks! Steve

Is there a way to remove an ACL created by -secureSSH (using jamf createAccount command)? We are working on a project where we are being asked to create a local hidden admin account with ACL to lock down SSH. The final part of the project will be to remove the ACL imposed by the -secureSSH option. The jamf binary help appears a bit outdated, and doesn't provide an answer: $ jamf -help createAccount Usage: jamf createAccount -username <username> -realname <Real Name> [-password <password>] [-passhash <passhash>] [-home </path/to/home/directory>] [-hint <hint>] [-shell <shell>] [-picture <picture>] [-admin] [-secureSSH] [-hiddenUser] [-networkUser] -username The user's user name -realname The user's real name -password The password of the user -passhash The hashed password of the user -home The location of the user's home directory -h

Anyone got a good dummies guide for the JSS API (or REST). I want to query a devices assigned peripheral. (We have some software that is licensed to the macs induvidually.. So I'd like to add the license as a peripheral & then query the JSS for it).
