I just released a project that I've been working on for a while, and mentioned during my JNUC API talk, that utilizes the JSS API to automatically merge changes that are made to git repositories. Effectively version controlling aspects of the JSS. I ...

I have two JDS servers, no other distribution points. For some reason, no matter which "Default JDS Instance" is specified for the network segment that the computer is on, Casper Imaging will default to the first JDS, which is the master. I have trie...

Does anyone have any experience managing/modifying the 'Local Items'/'iCloud' keychains via the command line? I currently have a shell script, offered via Self Service, which utilizes 'security' CLI which looks at the login.keychain, finds items that...

I love the new JSS REST API and the ability to interact/modify nearly everything via a script. However, there appears to be one glaring omission. JAMF Distribution Servers (not Distribution Points). I cannot find anyway to get information about them ...

NetBoot/PXE Boot requests, from a networking standpoint, look like DHCP requests (however, you can calm your panicked networking engineer down by saying that it'll be fine and your servers won't respond to general DHCP requests). So quick googling fo...

We have a method that we use to do this as an initial provisioning task. It's kludgy, but it works as long as you have a valid individual recovery key and know the user's password that you want to enable (which can be changed later). You can use the ...

Just a note on using this script. While it is helpful, it does allow anyone with read access to computer objects to view the "Helpdesk" password in cleartext which, if it allows someone to decrypt a machine, can be used to potentially compromise the ...
