[Casper] after image, first time run scripts

[Thomas Larkin]

That is pretty much exactly what I want to do.   I am familiar with all the commands since I already have scripts that do all of this.  However, I am looking for a script that only runs for the local admin account and only runs at first log in.  We image behind routers at times and these routers run NAT so it doesn't always hit the JSS since I don't have FQDN set up and all the forwarding, etc on each router.  We also run CompuTrace which is MAC address sensitive which is why I have the NIC and Airport turned off in the master image.   

I found really when mass imaging machines block copying performs faster than package based deployment and I never image one to 4 machines at a time.  I always image over 10 at a time if I can, if not more than that even.  So, I like to block copy and have all the basics in the main image.   

So when someone from my department images a machine they just log in as local admin once, it runs all it needs to do, then it shuts down the machine.  So they can log in and walk away and when they come back they can toss it in a laptop cart. 

Overall, not a huge deal but it wold definitely make our lives like 1 or 2 percent easier. 

thanks,

We actually do this in a few spots.

We have several packages and scripts that run after a machine is 
booted for the first time via LaunchDaemon (some after someone first 
logs in) - this does a number of things, including:

1) Renaming the system volume so our scripts actually work!
2) installing casper and creating a casper-only service account
3) creating a new hidden admin account (and removing the temporary one)
4) installing computrace
5) creating a loginhook for all users
6) naming the machine
7) setting ARD access
8) Installing certs and binding to our OD Server via SSL
9) Cleaning up caches
10) Fixing permissions
....etc

....then the script securely deletes each item, including the 
LaunchDaemon, while securely deleting itself last.
Works great!
