Dockutil on the new 2017 iMac

@steve.cox
Try this out and see how it works. I've had great success doing this way.

@steve.cox & @Echevarria To properly display code in a Jamf Nation post, use three backticks (```) before and after your code block.

Can you post the raw code? So it is copyable?

Thanks,
R.

@StoneMagnet thanks, I was rushing to a meeting so I just threw that up really quick.
Here you go.

```#!/bin/sh

loggedInUser=/bin/ls -l /dev/console | /usr/bin/awk '{ print $3 }'
loggedInUserHome="/Users/$loggedInUser"

configureDefaultDock() {

echo "Logged in user is $loggedInUser"
echo "Logged in user's home $loggedInUserHome"

if [ -e /usr/local/bin/dockutil ]; then dockutilVersion=$(/usr/local/bin/dockutil --version)

echo "dockutil version: $dockutilVersion"

echo "Clearing Dock..."
/usr/local/bin/dockutil --remove all --no-restart "$loggedInUserHome"

echo "Adding Launchpad..." /usr/local/bin/dockutil --add '/Applications/Launchpad.app' --no-restart --position 1 $loggedInUserHome echo "Adding Google Chrome..." /usr/local/bin/dockutil --add '/Applications/Google Chrome.app' --no-restart --position 2 $loggedInUserHome echo "Adding Slack..." /usr/local/bin/dockutil --add '/Applications/Slack.app' --no-restart --position 3 $loggedInUserHome echo "Adding Box Notes..." /usr/local/bin/dockutil --add '/Applications/Box Notes.app' --no-restart --position 4 $loggedInUserHome echo "Adding Casper Self-Service..." /usr/local/bin/dockutil --add '/Applications/Casper Self Service.app' --no-restart --position 5 $loggedInUserHome echo "Adding System Preferences..." /usr/local/bin/dockutil --add '/Applications/System Preferences.app' --no-restart --position 6 $loggedInUserHome echo "Adding Downloads..." /usr/local/bin/dockutil --add '~/Downloads' --no-restart --position 7 $loggedInUserHome

touch "$loggedInUserHome"/Library/Preferences/com.company.docksetup.plist

else echo "dockutil not installed, skipping initial dock setup..."

fi

}

configureDefaultDock
killall Dock

exit 0```

@Echevarria How is this being triggered in your policy? Login hook?

Don't forget to use the code block feature when pasting code, or it will get mangled in the post.

@rqomsiya I have this running as part of the setup process (imaging). I also have another policy that runs peruser. This way if a new account is created on the machine, the user will get the standard dock. I have it run at login.

@Echevarria I have tried that script and am getting this error

Script result: /Library/Application Support/JAMF/tmp/P112 Dock copy: line 3: -l: command not found

if I take out the -l I get

Script result: /Library/Application Support/JAMF/tmp/P112 Dock copy: line 3: /dev/console: Permission denied

My appologies to all who have contributed, dockutil is working fine there was a Configuration Profile overriding any changes that I tried to make.
