Message-ID: <C6248BAD.1D275%Paul.Parker@JCrew.com>

Hi all ? we are trying to automate the setup of Entourage on login based on
the entourageSetup script included with the Resource Kit.  Unofruntately,
the script fails when Setup Assistant launches and will fail again when the
app launches and asks to be the default mail prorgram.  If you run the
script after these two prompts have been taken care of, it works flawlessly.
Anyone have a successful experience with this script yet?  Thanks in
advance!

Cheers
Paul

Hi Paul!

You might be interested in a newer version of the script than what has been
included in the Resource Kit.

Have a look here: <http://entourage.mvps.org/exchange/exchangesetupv3.html>.
I can help you with support issues with this newer version. The one in the
Resource kit has been modified to work through a policy, which I?ve not
used.

Subject: [Resourcekit] Bootcamp Scripts
In-Reply-To: <mailman.29.1241463627.31282.resourcekit@list.jamfsoftware.com>

Message-ID: <BB561E54-C773-4894-8DEF-94396665F29B@mac.com>

We are looking at the idea of deploying a few dual boot Macs. They  
would be using Bootcamp.

We've been looking at the captureBootCampImage.sh that is part of the  
Resource Tool kit.

We are down to step number 4 in the documentation that comes with this  
resource kit item. (Capturing the NTFS  image)

Looking at the comments in the script it look like the command is  
going to be :

sudo captureBootCampImage.sh

It looks like the target is already set in the script to  savePath="~/ 
Desktop/BootCamp.ntfs" which is fine.

When I execute the command I'm not 100% sure about some of the  
variables that go with the script.

sudo captureBootCampImage.sh <mountPoint> <computerName>  
<currentUsername> <target> <savePath>

I took a shot at it and it did start but came back with an error that  
it couldn't unmount the partition. Do I need to manually  unmount the  
windows partition ?

The Windows XP partition I believe is just called XP.

I was wondering if others have had great luck with the Bootcamp  
scripts in the resource kit.

I'm also not entirely sure about gptrefresh.c as it appears to just be  
c code. Is that ok ? It seems to just say I just need to drop that  
file into /usr/bin/gptrefresh of the Netboot image ?

Someone mentioned that the easiest way to collect the gptrefresh  
compiled code is to copy it from the "Contents" of the winclone  
application into the designated location of your booted drive.  To do  
this, download winclone from the site, then right-click and view the  
contents.  The gptrefresh script is embedded in the contents somewhere.

Thanks,

Roger

Hey all,

I am curious to see how many of you are using the PM Script Builder application in the Resource Kit to build a script to manage your power settings with Casper.  I?m also wondering what kinds of schedules you are using for display/computer sleep times and if anyone uses the startup/shutdown feature to conserve energy.

If you would feel more comfortable emailing me off the list, please feel free to do so as well.

Thanks!

I haven't used the application to create pm scripts, but that's mostly  
because I had hand written the scripts before the Resource Kit came  
out.  I do think that the pm script builder makes things a lot easier  
if I need to make new ones in the future.

As for our schedules, we put all displays to sleep after 20 minutes  
and computers to sleep after 50.  We use wake on lan to wake them up  
if need be, but don't shut them down since they don't support wake on  
lan from power off.

Hi Ryan,

This is slightly off topic from the original question Nick posted, but  
how do you deal with the Wake-On-LAN limitations on Macs?  I find that  
I can never wake any machines that are not in the local VLAN/Subnet.   
Does Casper do this for you, or is there a work-around you've come up  
with?  I'd love to schedule more "sleeping" to save power but have had  
a hard time getting the computers to manually wake back up if I need  
to connect.

Thanks,

I haven't used the PM scripts to set the schedules, I just set it on one
machine and pushed out the plist via a login policy.  The file is
com.apple.AutoWake.plist and it is located in:
/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration

We set our machines to shutdown at 10 pm and wake at 7:30 am.  Of course, if
the user leaves apps open that require user intervention, the shutdown does
not occur.  And since my users regularly leave Illustrator or InDesign files
open without saved changes, I am not forcing those apps to quit via a script
or anything.

I was wondering if anyone has developed a way to have users reminded that the machine is being remote controlled? I'm trying to come up with a way that users would know that they are being remote controlled, but I'm kind of stumped. I was thinking about some kind of menu icon that checks for VNC_SERVER process. If anyone has ideas for this I would appreciate it. Thank

Adam,

Have you given the unbindOD.sh script a whirl yet?  That should allow you to unbind from OD after setting some parameters in the script.
