Here it is , This goes in under a Computer group in Custom Settings

My Mac users are AD I map both there Windows and Mac Documents folder to the desktop . ( they are both located in there Home Drive) Are you using Profile Manager ? i have a plist for this Remember you dont want to map a drive really , you want to create a symlink too the individual folders in there home directory and display it on there desktop

The profile is stored in the users windows home directory. I have tried deleting there keychain , but everytime a user logs in the setting "Lock After 5 Minutes of inactivity" is enabled in there logon . Weirdly it doesnt do it on Local logins , it allows me to change it on AD user accounts manually but as soon as i logoff and back on it comes back to default I now have the terminal command to alter the length , so looking at a way at running it at logon ta for the reply.

As title , all my ad logins have this enabled and set to 5 mins we need around 240 mins because Safari will be using kerberos soon and it prompts for password once the user is inactive for 5 mins. If i manually change it, its fine untill after they log back in and itresets back to the default. Am i missing something ? we are using profile manager and i have a few custom Plists setup but cant find out why this applys to AD accounts only ? local accounts seem fine . We are running Yosemite btw

The storage isnt really the issue regarding the user data in the roaming profile. The problem is more logon times taking an extra few mins to load the profile during peak . Keeping it local will mean any favorites and browsing history wont be accessible , maybe i could setup a script to copy it at logon ? and then just keep the directory local. Thanks every one for the replys

Thanks for that . What does every one else currently do ? some of the chrome folders are 500mb! , i have already redirected the cache.

can any one clarify this for me teachers are running Roaming and kids are using Mandatory I want the UserData folder of Google Chrome to be in the teachers homedrive ( will speedup logins) I want the kids Userdata folder to just redirect to the profile ( it gets deleted anyhow) How can i do this with the Chrome ADMX ?, googles reg keys are stored in the local machine and not the HKCU

We purchased 10 meraki access points , very nice equipment. We are also now looking at Meraki layer 3 core switches

How i done ours Windows server for authentication and windows file shares mac mini for cache server , profile manager and mac file shares The users on the macs logon using there windows credentials, profile manager applys there profile settings based on year group which limits there access to the machine, sets backgrounds and an customization. There OSX profiles are stored in there Windows home directory and not on the macs so are effectively roaming profiles. Have a custom plist to not redirect some of the cache folders and also another plist to create some symlinks on there desktop that links to there Mac Documents , Windows Documents and shared folders based on year group on both windows and mac networks. Works fine , only downside is makes there home directorys where there documents are stored on the windows network a little bit more messy i.e. It used to be U:\Documents ( that was the only file in there ), but now it has multiple folders in there from the Mac profile U:\ Documents and another U:\ Documents and U:\Desktop, U:\Library etc.

Unsure if you have noticed but Oct 27th's Update has released proxy settings. Im now waiting on the ability to set the time and turn on auto update for app store !

I have now changed mine to Critical only on the automatic approvals. Thanks for this thread btw, saved me a lot of hassle trying to source the update.

thanks for that , done a resync on wsus and pushing out the new patch now. Thanks

any one noticed problems with MS office 2010 since the updates yesterday ? We seem to be getting random crashing on office 2010 on multiple machines

I have the dell Venue 11 pro i5 version Installed windows 10 , no drivers required. Cost me £205 including the extra keyboard ( with built in battery ), refurbed of course i5,4gb ram , 128gb ssd Basically a cheap ultrabook with the laptop style keyboard

keep it simple Not having a managed wireless solution means any one can have access ( including kids) without safeguarding and you will never be the wiser . With a managed solution with e.g. Radius you can monitor everything, set limits and the cisco kit even has a built in webfilter. We have started putting in Cisco Merakis everywhere. I love them !, Radius authentication that expires every 10 days so they have to relogin . I also rotate the guest accounts password for external users.

Indeed , used powershell to create the my documents folders Then modified the robocopy method on here, great stuff

Has any one done this ? Our current setup is this \server\share\user To comply with windows 7 and desktop.ini i need to do the following Create a folder here \server\share\user\My Documents And move the contents of \server\share\user to \server\share\user\My Documents I mostly have this working with with powershell , only problem im having is moving files that have invalid characters such as [] and ' . the script basically says the files do not exist, but obviously they do Thanks Luke

Carter , much apreciated for these files. Bit confused on how they work . I have tried them with Profile Manager under custom settings ( both Device and User) , I tried unticking some boxs to show removable devices , change some tag names etc ( this is with the finder.plist) but does not seem to change anything ? Any chance you could give me a brief description on how you got them working ? Thanks

Is any one else having problems with this ? We currently have a mac server on mavericks , the server is binded to AD and using profile manager . An AD user can login to the client machines The AD user gets its mapped home drive client machine can also get profiles that have been setup on Profile manager computer groups The problem we are having is getting AD user groups to apply profiles based on them groups, they tend to require quite a few logins to get the profile to push down ?? so for example , if we was to make a group in AD called test group and make our test user apart of this group the AD user will have to login multiple times for the profile to finally be pushed . Is any one else experiencing this ?

Heres a little bat to remove the latest 7 installs and then install java 8 ( both x86 and x64 ) REM Uninstall Java 7 Update 67 msiexec /x {26A24AE4-039D-4CA4-87B4-2F03217067FF} /q REM Uninstall Java 7 Update 67 x64 msiexec /x {26A24AE4-039D-4CA4-87B4-2F06417067FF} /q REM Uninstall Java 7 Update 65 msiexec /x {26A24AE4-039D-4CA4-87B4-2F03217065FF} /q REM Uninstall Java 7 Update 65 x64 msiexec /x {26A24AE4-039D-4CA4-87B4-2F06417065FF} /q REM Install Latest Java Version X86 msiexec /i jre1.8.0_25X86.msi JU=0 JAVAUPDATE=0 AUTOUPDATECHECK=0 RebootYesNo=No WEB_JAVA=1 /q REM Install Latest Java Version X64 msiexec /i jre1.8.0_25X64.msi JU=0 JAVAUPDATE=0 AUTOUPDATECHECK=0 RebootYesNo=No WEB_JAVA=1 /q Unsure if i am going to do the jump ! , as not sure if a lot of the older java apps will be compatible

Am i right in assuming "Deployment.config","Deployment.properties" are no longer required with java 8??

All this time hunting through the registry , seems like theres something a tad corrupt in Appdata\roaming\Microsoft Copied the contents from a working profile and its fixed

Actually scrap that , IE9 actually works .. I assumed it would be like 10/11 because of the use of the same download manager . But seems good ?

I hope someone might have come across this. Basically i customized a default profile on our machines , it works fine except the following ! If i update Internet Explorer to 9/10 or 11 I can no longer download any files that use the download manager that comes with IE 9/10/11 The yellow download bar pops up but none of the buttons work . I also cant use CTRL+J to open View downloads ( i also cant open it from the tools menu ). Its 100% something in the profile , as i have used a roaming profile created with a non modified default profile and it works fine on all the machines . I have tried comparing the registry hive and removed some of the bits , but it still does not work . I have also tried using process monitor to see whats happening , but cant seem to see anything We are currently still using IE8 and Google Chrome as these are not affected by the same problem . Has any one else had this and have been able to fix it without redoing everyones profiles ! Thanks 2097

These first 2 episodes are the most sickening episodes i have seen on the show !. Half of me wanted to throw up , the other half was thankful for not making it so boring .
