Product Enhancements
Preference Manifests: Delivered the first iteration of the Jamf Connect preference manifest files, which Jamf Pro will use as a part of the improved Application and Custom Settings payload (Jamf Pro 10.18 or later). This payload allows Jamf Pro admins to configure Jamf Connect settings natively via the Jamf Pro UI. To learn more about this integration, please check out the blog post here.
Jamf Connect Verify 1.4.0 – Support for Active Directory Short Names: You can now configure Jamf Connect Verify to prompt users for their Active Directory short name if it differs from their network username. The following preferences are now available in Jamf Connect Verify for this purpose:
• KerberosShortNameAskMessage
• KerberosShortName
• KerberosShortNameAsk
For more information, see Configuring Jamf Connect Verify.
