Good morning all! I'm seeing a strange, intermittent error from my policy logs on a printer installation policy. The scenario is that I have a lab, protected by DeepFreeze, that gets two printers installed at login via script. The driver is also bein...

Good afternoon fellow JAMFanatics (TM?) ;) As I'm sure many of you are, we're stuck deploying Mavericks to the new model MBPs, Airs, and Mac Pros. For our portables, we're getting complaints about the new 'feature' that the user sees in regards to th...

Hey guys, I couldn't manage to get the pre-existing extension attribute for DeepFreeze to work in my environment (perhaps my tech base isn't installing it correctly), but here's a quick extension attribute I wrote to get the status of DeepFreeze if i...

I second @donmontalvo's advice on reimaging. Adobe Support, in my experience, is useful insomuch as answering the phone call, but not the problem that generated the call. As @taugust04 & @dgreening mentioned, there's a whole lot of cruft left in vari...

I've only been with the Casper Suite for about a year now (maybe 1.5?), and I'm using both Profiles and scripts to get the job done. Network drives are being handled via Profiles. This is still a work in progress, but each department has a shared net...

I third (fourth?) MacAdmins at PSU. I attended for the first time in 2014, and it was a great conference. Not only I did get to attend a session lead by @rtrouton, and Mr. Neagle. Both sessions were incredibly helpful and really neat. And, fun fact, ...
