My PreStage is configured to create a hidden local admin account and a Standard Local user account.
However, when I deploy a machine running Big Sur the local user is created with Admin permissions.
Has anyone else seen this?

This appears to be a Jumpcloud issue, not a Jamf issue.

I have this issue with my Big Sur machines...my local admin account does not have access to its own home folder.

Hello, Were you able to find a solution to your issue about access to its own home folder? I'm going a little nuts trying to setup machines with a fresh install of Big Sur with a prestage environment.

Yes, you need to look at your user initiated enrollment settings in Jamf. In here you have a management account that is being created. This account needs to have a different name than the one you are creating in your prestage enrollment.

 

i personally created JSSAdmin and set it to have a random password and that fixed my issue
