I need a postinstall PKG script that handles what FEU and FUT do in a Jamf Pro DMG.
This is going to be a standalone PKG that may be used on unmanaged systems. Else, I would just use FEU and FUT with a DMG.
Before I re-invent the wheel I thought I would ask Jamf Nation.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Here's a template I created a while back, using input from folks here.
It is set up to do a defaults write, but can be tweaked to do other stuff.
Sets up System Template, as well as any user accounts on the computer that have user ID over 500:
#!/bin/sh
# Get list of users with UID over 500
over500=$( /usr/bin/dscl . list /Users UniqueID | awk '$2 > 500 { print $1 }' )
# Path to application
APPLICATION=""
# Remove Quarantine flag if not owned by root:wheel
/usr/bin/xattr -r -d com.apple.quarantine "$APPLICATION"
# Set pref User Template
/usr/bin/defaults write /System/Library/User Template/English.lproj/Library/Preferences/XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX 2>/dev/null
/bin/chmod -R 700 /System/Library/User Template/English.lproj/Library/Preferences/XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX.plist 2>/dev/null
/usr/sbin/chown root:wheel /System/Library/User Template/English.lproj/Library/Preferences/XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX.plist 2>/dev/null
# Set prefs Users
for u in $over500 ;
do
/usr/bin/defaults write /Users/"$u"/Library/Preferences/XXXXXXXX 2>/dev/null
/bin/chmod -R 700 /Users/"$u"/Library/Preferences/XXXXXXXX.plist 2>/dev/null
/usr/sbin/chown "$u" /Users/"$u"/Library/Preferences/XXXXXXXX.plist 2>/dev/null
done
exit 0
I try to avoid proprietary formats, like DMG "packages" since their use is locked in to the product.
HTH,

Thanks @donmontalvo. This is exactly what I was looking for.
