Network Shares

[JMaximusPrime]

Hello,

I'm seeking guidance on best practices for creating Configuration Profiles to manage our network shares. We have a handful of network drives containing folders with specific permissions or ACLs.

Ideally, I would like to leverage our AAD SG to manage the permissions efficiently. What would be the best approach to see this up in Jamf Pro?

I’m assuming you still have an on-prem AD instance. If so, you can consider using Apple’s Kerberos SSO Extension. This will allow your Macs to generate Kerberos tickets to authenticate against your network shares with AD credentials. If you are using Entra Active Directory (EAD) only, you could look in to solutions like Jamf Connect or XCreds. However, these would be more complex and may require additional configuration. I would need more details on your setup to help you determine the best approach.
