    CloneZilla on Mac

    I've not tried it but it should work, yes. There is a restore option in the recovery Disk Utility which you can choose your image and it'll wipe the existing drive.
  2. Is there anything in the CUPS log on the local machine? CUPS Local Link Where/how are you controlling access to the printer?

    CloneZilla on Mac

    No, but you could just create an image using the Disk Utility Disk Utility 12.x: Create a disk image
  4. Old topic but this was just what I was looking for (mounting shares never seems to work from profile manager). Can I ask though, how do you set this to be a login item? Profile manager only supports shells scripts so I wasn't sure where to add it Edit/Made a workaround, exported it as an Application and then added it to the login items. I can't now figure out how to add it to the dock though (in profile manager). All I can see is the stupid question mark
  5. Are you using Profile Manager? If so you should just be able to un tick "Network Home" in the dock preferences. What happens when you try to just drag it out, does it bounce back in?

    Windows Home Directory

    I finally got this to work I'm not entirely sure how though as I did a couple of things at the same time and don't wont to touch it now. But, if it helps anyone else, I think it was when I made the shares hidden (\\server\pupil\name$) that I had success. I noticed that the shares weren't showing up in the "Share and Storage Management" application on the Windows server but when I created the share using that, rather than let windows create it when logging on there was folder redirection. Quick question as I'm here, do Mac preferences (/Library) get copied/synced or are settings lost each log in?

    Windows Home Directory

    Still a bit stumped. Created a new user and had the same problem. If it can't find the home directory I can only assume it's pointing to the wrong folders but I have the option ticked in Directory Utility and the user has full permissions. Could it be grabbing the location from somewhere else?

    Windows Home Directory

    I gave that user Read permissions to the parent folder but it didn't seem to make a difference. They should have all the permissions they need. Perhaps I will give them the same permissions as my (domain admin) account and see what happens. Does make sense I don't remember setting the option in the DHCP, or where it is for that matter but, if I go into System Preferences->Network->DNS I can see my "domain.local" in the search domains. So guess that's set. edit -Hmm. Changing permissions didn't seem to work. I must be missing something simple. Rrrr
  9. I've only just started playing with iPads and profile manager but perhaps Apple Configurator might be more what you're looking for https://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/apple-configurator/id434433123?mt=12 I've never used it so not sure how it plays with profile manager etc. Be curious to know how you get on Edit/Longish article here http://krypted.com/iphone/managing-ios-devices-with-apple-configurator/
  10. I really need some help as this is driving me slowly crazy. I've got a 10.7 Server and Win2008R2 Domain. I've been using mobile accounts to keep things in sync but that wasn't a good idea so have abandoned it. When I log into a mac (10.8 and 10.7) with my own account the home directory thing works great and Documents, Desktop etc are the same as on Windows. However, when I log in with anyone else it doesn't work. On 10.7 it logs you in but no home folder any shares and on 10.8 it actually gives me an error (albeit v briefly) but you can't access anything. Here's all of it for the sake of completeness. The Home Folder for user "pupil" isn't located in the usual place or can't be accessed The home or users folder may have been moved or deleted. If the home folder is located on the network, the server may be temporarily unavailable, if yu continue to have problems, see your network administrator. Anyone hazard a guess as to where the problem might be? I'm feeling a bit stuck
