I noticed on one of the more recent SVNs you can specify which build numbers are valid. I had to comment that out to get my build working, is that because I didn’t import my disk using the importDisk.py script? If so, I’ll just re-import the disk using that script […]

1) While those discs might be useable, those are exactly the discs that I was warning people off in the video (and other places). Go buy a copy of the retail disc (ie: the discs you buy in a store with no computer attached). The “reference” discs are ones that […]

[QUOTE][u]Quote by: Allister[/u][p]Hey nobrainer, Mr. Kevin White has to gloss over a few details in his Peachpit Deployment book, but he doesn’t skimp on the instructions for using Apple’s Packagemaker, and it really has become more capable over the years(and is free). I can’t speak to Iceberg even though the […]

This is how I’m turning ssh on, as part of a first-boot launchd that srm’s: [code]launchctl load -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/ssh.plist[/code] My question comes in when I look at the new restrictions available since Leopard for specifying access to users/groups. The only restriction I need at this point is only admins are […]

I usually get quite a lot of unsolicited feedback about Adobe's installers at MacWorld or WWDC (and even better, unguarded, feedback at the Thirsty Bear around closing time) but this year without an IT Track at WWDC (grrrr) I stayed home. Since I am not down there this year I wanted to know if anyone has had a chance to try out the new Creative Suite Enterprise deployment tool? It's now named the Adobe Application Manager Enterprise Edition and allows you to make a pkg for ARD and allows you to disable the EULA, product registration reminders, the Adobe Updater, etc. I can pass your feedback directly along to the product team. Anyone who attended the MacWorld 2010 Adobe CS Deployment and Provisioning talk/Q&A knows that they are aware of our pain as IT techs and I believe are moving in the right direction with this tool.

Last night I checked in some changes, mostly in InstaUp2Date. For most people the only change that will impact them is that the feedback that InstaUp2Date gives is a quite a bit shorter as I have cut out a lot of things that were never really used. Mostly this update […]

The best advice I can give you is to clone your drive(s) to another volume(s). This allows you to roll-back should there by any issues with the update. [b]You should be cloning for alot of reasons [/b]It’s best to stop services during the clone, but not required…. Carbon Copy Cloner […]
