Thanks for that. I’ll take a look.

Just to update:

Dev 10.7.2 seems to fix this.
Also the latest build of Deploy Studio works when using their ADBind script – so that’s what I’m using!

Thanks for that!

Just a note – I couldn’t add the com.apple.mcxMenuExtras plist until I had populated it with the TextInput.menu string – once I figured that out I could add it in (just in case it helps anyone else in future.

Unfortunately with this and the HiToolbox plist I am still getting the same result.
I have removed the existing Managed Pref folder and verified that the computer is actually a memeber of the group!

Here’s the HiToolbox plist:

com.apple.HIToolbox

Fixed it myself – Needed more disk space! 😳

Hi bosemachine,

I have been looking for a solution to this as well. What I do as a workaround is find out what is going wrong, strip down the build to the bare image and the couple of pkgs I think are causing the problem and rebuild.
Doesn’t work all the time but I find it great for solving small problems without loosing a day.

I feel your pain – one of my builds has a 45gb repackaged music app 🙁

P.S. @ larkost: Keep up the great work!!!

All sorted – slightly embarrassed really – had my syntax wrong 😳

Thanks for the advice though bdchappel

FWIW I got around this (Thanks to John Goss) by running these commands on my test machine:

defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.iWork09.Installer InstallMode Retail

And then to suppress registration prompts:

defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.iWork09 ShouldNotSendRegistration -bool yes

now to bundle it and deploy 😀

Hope this helps somebody going prematurely grey!!!

Thanks for all your help.
One last question; Do quotas set by the server work on PC’s? I need to limit the users Home Folder size.

Ger…

Thanks for the heads up 😥
Any idea where I could find a tutorial to educate myself on Windows logon scripts???

[zvordauk]

Yes and yes.
All running off one xServe: 10.4.10 acting as OD Master, file server, home dir server.

Thanks for the pointers. I’ll give them a go and get back to you….
