Creating Packages for use on logon

[Primax2000]

I am replacing a script through munki to update a logon bash script that was created.

I have done my updates but am stuck on how to create the package that drop it in the correct place !

Packages has been my "go to" for now but i cannot select the exact place i want which is "/usr/local/etc/logon scripts" .

Forgive me as i am still VERY VERY green to this and am leaping in the deep end :-)

I am picking up very much where someone else has left off and its a case of unpick and try, try again.

All help as always appreciated.

 

Thank you all.

For all those who use or are about to use "packages" when looking where to place the payload if you right click (command click ?, doing this via remote) you can display then hidden files and then add on the folders you need and attach the script to drop in the correct areas.

 

Hope this helps someone else out !

Packages is a awesome thing and can be very powerful! We package alot of software that really shouldn't be packaged / deployed (Because of stupid scripts, activations and plist requirements) via Munki using Packages.

 

If you begin to have any issues with the builtin logon script system, it's worth having a look at Offset! You can then define whether it's One Time, Every Time, First Boot etc... Lots of settings!
