[Casper] Web based Self Service

Trey,

You would need to have the quickadd.pkg already added to the computer
as it holds the ssh account info that Casper uses for authentication for
installing packages.  The only other way would be to run self service
and try to install it but use the local admin account's credentials, as
the JAMF binary installs items in several locations all needing sudo
privileges to run.

You can install it via ARD Admin remotely, then it should work if you
want to add machines to inventory from a remote location.  You can also
use the recon.app to hit certain subnets and add computers also.

Hope that helps

Tom

Is anybody using the web version of Self Service? The client I get to
work 
perfectly. I was looking into using the web based one for computers not

yet in database and have the quick add package in there to add them.
The 
web one always says no authorization, no matter which computer I pick?
