Greetings nation, I know this is probably a dumb question, but I can't seem to remember: Where are the actual physical MCX plists located in the JSS? I need to start converting these to config profiles in preparation for moving and upgrading our JSS.

Do you mean the URL or where they are stored on the computer???

/Library/Managed Preferences/ is the Computer level ~/Library/Managed Preferences is the User level.

Thanks anyway, I emailed support to see if they can tell me. I could've sworn I got there before on v8... but maybe it was v9. I don't know.

I was curious about this so checked myself. In case you never got around to asking support, they are in ```
webapps/ROOT/WEB-INF/xml/manifests
```
