Hello,

I have been working on customizing the quickadd.pkg because our JSS is cloud hosted, our AD in on prem and we are not allowed to bind them because the methods used are not deemed secure enough for our security team. I have read Getting the Most out of your QuickAdd.pkg and have used it to create some scripts and enrollment work flows. I have extracted the postinstall.sh file, using tar through the CLI. Now that my script is ready, I don't know how to rebuild the quickadd. I know I could tar it back up but I am worried it will extract and not execute the contents. Is there a way to do this from the command line or is there an application which would make the whole thing a lot easier?

Thank you in advance for your help.

You can re-package it with Composer. You just need to add the original quickadd payload back in and add your modified postinstall.sh script.
