I have a base OSX Page for 10.7 that I have been installing on new Macs with Disk Utility. I then install other software for example Flash player on after manually. What is another better way of installing software when deploying new Macs? Any suggestions. I was thinking a polices would worker using self service. Any thoughts?

Any reason you aren't using Casper Imaging instead of Disk Utility? Then you'd be able to streamline your process and install the additional software after your base image gets applied.

Use Casper Imaging with configurations built in Casper Admin and your life will instantly get better.

You might want to look into a JumpStart with Casper as they'll go over these things with you.

Where is the option in the jss to store the root password for all autorun data?

Auto run and Pre-Stage are not the same thing.
Auto-run = used for systems already in the JSS that you may want to re-image on a schedule or by demand. Often used in lab environments
Pre-Stage = used exclusively for new Macs that have not been imaged or enrolled in the JSS.

I think the error parsing xml for autorun is comming from a bad local password. I have been trying alot of stuff I have deleted all autorun data at the request of jamf. this does not seem to help.
