Subject: [Composer] Problems with "Convert to Source" - work around.
In-Reply-To: <mailman.11.1265054405.23795.composer@list.jamfsoftware.com>
Message-ID: <C78C91BA.3666%Halvorson.Jason@mayo.edu>

I believe it is a bug within Composer 7.1.

We received instructions to use Composer 7.01 to convert to source.  This
solution works even if we use Composer 7.1 to create the DMG.

If you do not have access to an earlier version of Composer, contact JAMF
support.

Thanks for all the confirmations.  I spoke to JAMF and they are aware of the
bug and offered the following workaround:

First mount the dmg on your machine then drag the mounted disk image from
> your desktop into the left window pane of Composer 7.1.


Thanks

Subject: [Composer] Parallels Desktop 4 Settings Package Issue
Message-ID: <ef31fb251002050245u462eb9e1gffdade5f382fb713@mail.gmail.com>

Hi,


I am trying to package Parallels Desktop 4 to deploy through Casper Policy.


As per the JAMF article :- *
http://www.jamfsoftware.com/kb/article.php?id=256*, Created the *Parallels
Settings* and *Virtual Machine* dmg using composer. Then copied*
 Install.mpkg* of Parallels Desktop Installer.


Created the Policy with the three packages setting priority of *Install.mpkg
* (Parallels Installer) to 1, *Parallels Setting* dmg(FUT, FEU selected) to
10 and *Virtual Machine* dmg to 20, so it installs in order.


Policy is set to triggered by *any* and reboot is slected.


In Client Machine after deployment, Parallels again opening the "New Virtual
Machine Assistant". It does not take the configured settings.


Regards,

Karthikeyan M

Subject: [Composer]  Cisco VPN Mac 10.6
Message-ID: <0CC3967D-ABCE-4554-85CA-FBF35CA113D6@4j.lane.edu>

Hey all,

Has anyone attempted to create an install pkg to configure the built- 
in Cisco VPN in 10.6 with success?  I have tried using Composer 7.1  
with no success of even getting a snapshot of the modified/new files,  
after configuring the VPN.  Any thoughts or ideas would be helpful.   
Thanks for your time.

You can export the configuration as a .networkConnect document that is double-clickable. You have to play with the options - it kept erroring out depending on what was checked in the export window. Open up the .networkConnect file in a text editor to be sure you remove any usernames or passwords from the .networkConnect document.

Alternatively I made a .dmg that pushed the .networkConnect doc into /Users/Shared, then wrote a script which opened/imported the file, and then deleted the original profile from /Users/Shared...
