Change of Username (Prompt end user for name)

[simon_brooke]

Hi All,

I have around 500 mac's where at least half get passed around in departments. I have an extension attribute to tell me the last user.

I have to export this to a CSV with the current username assigned (Active Directory).

Does anyone have a script that will prompt the user to type in their username and select their department from my current list of departments (Not Assigned from AD).

Many thanks in Advance
Simon

this is an applescript i was building but never actually utilized, it does what you want though, it's kinda rough around the edges. again, i never put this into production - if you run from jamf, shouldnt need to set user & pass inside the script, if you do, make sure to encrypt the credentials.

#!/usr/bin/osascript 

-- Set Ad Privvies
set UNAME to "admin"
set PASSW to "pass"

set stafffirstname to text returned of (display dialog "Please type your first name." default answer "")
set stafflastname to text returned of (display dialog "Please type your Last name." default answer "")
set stafffullname to stafffirstname & " " & stafflastname
