However, to add dock items that is done with a policy.
You can manage a lot of the dock preferences with a Configuration Profile. You can either write a script to customize the dock, or use JAMF's "dock utilities" in JAMF Admin. It’s fairly simple, the only reason people consider it complicated is it’s a total departure from how you will package anything else.įor the dock, this would need to be done last. JAMF Admin has a button specifically for “New Adobe Install”.
Adobe creative for mac zip file#
Adobe provides you with a zip file you upload in to JAMF admin, for Adobe products you deploy the zip file.
Adobe creative for mac software#
You don’t package adobe software or write any scripts for it. Just log in to the Adobe Admin Portal, follow the directions to download the package you want and toss it in to JAMF. You can package Adobe applications simply enough, but the entire process is a bit of a pain because it's Adobe.
If you need to you can upload custom plists to JAMF which you cannot do for iOS, but that should get its own conversation if needed. Many of the macOS settings you can manage already are built in JAMF, just select the correct Payload and check boxes. Those will function similar to iOS, you will use Configuration Profiles to do that. After a wipe and load reconfiguring one of our devices takes about 20 minutes and the tech only has to log in and click 1 button.Īs far as your Restrictions and System Preferences. Due to this we have a device configuration that is run from selfservice that installs all our software and runs the domain bind policy, its 1 click and runs a script with 25 or so policies and renames the computer before it AD binds. If you put AD binding in prestage it will join the domain with whatever default hostname the Mac has so you will get duplicates. AD Binding can happen automatically, but its best to not run it automatically. If you disable an account on AD, it may still be able to log in to the Mac depending on the environment. SSO is not configured with AD binding, and you do not have the same account control. AD Binding will allow mobile accounts to log in, but keep in mind it does not function the same as Windows.
AD Binding is done with a policy and is by far the most complex thing on your list.
