Hi!
I am stumped. I have a lab that is re-imaged and added to an MCX
profile in Casper, but will not take the startup/system wide prefs. My
test machine in my office works perfectly, imaged w/ the same config.
I've re-imaged a couple times and every time, my test machine works
and the lab fails. Local user MCX settings ARE working on the lab. I
initially had the lab in the MCX profile as a smart group, but have
now tried a static group, no difference.
I have wracked my brain for why my test machine works and lab doesn't.
Same imaging config (10.5.8), all same policies apply, no ip
restrictions on any applicable policies. Different Subnet, different
imac model (slightly) and different records in the JSS of course.
When I look at the /Computers/localhost file, the login screen message
and other system wide settings are there, but the Managed Preferences
Folder never gets populated with these settings. I compared this file
on the non-working and working, and it is same.
I started out w/ MCX framework being applied only to these computers
using scripts, but now have enabled MCX in my framework, since I'm
headed that direction. This is the only profile right now in my JSS.
I have lost my O.D./WGM. We're ramping up AD as fast as possible with
no schema-edit and only XtremeZ-IP for mac clients, (no admitMac or
Centrify, etc) . All my computers are currently unbound, roaming the
prairie freely ...
Anybody have suggestions on how to fix or what else to try?
This issue was happening in JSS 7.3.1, and still now is 8.0. though
everything else is working great... :)
Thanks!
Sandy
