If I wanted to create a new installer package with all my server
settings for the clients, how would I do so? When we set up everything
Josh did it for us. I want to create a new package that has the newest
binary for Leopard 10.5 and is set to our server running the JSS.

Is there a package builder in composer or something that can create the
/usr/sbin/jamf binary for me?

Thanks,

Isn't this what the Recon QuickAdd package is for? Open Recon and click
on QuickAdd Package. This lets you enter your authentication credentials
and creates a package for you.

Tom,

You are licensed for the Recon piece of the Casper suite I assume?

Yup, wanted to see if he was licensed with Recon.

Ah, OK, recon was the only place I hadn't looked yet. I will see what I
can find. I have the quick add package but its old and it doesn't work
on 10.5, so I need to update it.

Thanks everyone,

Yeah I am licensed with recon, but to be honest I haven't ever really
used the GUI application. I have always used the command line instead.

Since our quick add was created for me I pushed that out via ARD Admin. So, I haven't had a real use for recon really. Oh well, you learn
something new every day I guess.
