Need to login to 125 macs with local user at once - unix command?

Is there any way to login into the local admin account on all these imacs from ARD using command line

Assuming the Mac is sitting at the login screen, with cursor blinking in the name field, send the following as Root user:
osascript <<EndOfMyScript
tell application "System Events"
keystroke "username"
keystroke return
delay 3.0
keystroke "password"
delay 3.0
keystroke tab
keystroke return
keystroke return
end tell
EndOfMyScript

Multiple Macs with multiple user accounts

I have a Mac computer connected to airport and use Time Machine for backups. This works well.
I have now purchased a second Mac and would like to include this second Mac so that I can move between Macs and work. There does not appear to be any mechanism to allow this.

After searching the web and the discussion here, here's my minimal impact solution for multiple Macs with multiple users in a household:
1) Set up Mac1 for myself only
2) Set up Mac2 for the wife and kid
3) Set up each Mac to backup to the Airport base station using Time Machine (this would create two separate backups on the Airport base station's drive, which from what I've read has its own problems)
4) On Mac1 setup "empty user accounts" for the wife and kid. These will not have any files in them - just an access mechanism. If they want to access their files, they can use Time Machine's "The Browse Other Backup Disks Option" to get their file from Mac2, work on it and then drop it in the Shared Folder. Next time they are on Mac2, remember to copy the updated/created file from the Shared Folder into their Mac2 user account. If possible, get Time Machine to not backup the "empty user accounts".
5) Do the same for me on Mac2.
Not the most elegant solution, but until Apple get off their backside and make this seamless, I can't think of anything else :-( .
P.S. iCloud is not a soluton since it costs hundreds of dollars a year, uses up intenet data allowance and is slow.

SSO for application systems with local users?

Hi all, I'm new to Oracle Identity Management. My company is going to implement SSO for inhouse applications. However, some applications have their own local users (e.g. admin, guest, etc.) who have to login to the application system through the same interface. We put all organization users in an Oracle enterprise Directory server, which is the authentication backend of the Access Manager. After implementing webgate, such local users can't get authenticated. I'd like to know if it's possible to configure particular users/applications to bypass SSO and use local authentication? Thanks.

Possible solution is to create a new entry point for local users. Create two proxies one for actual user entry and another for local user. You can restrict n/w access to proxy with local login so that only few hosts based on your requirement who needs to access system with local accounts. This way you will have two web sites for single application.

Is there any information about using iCloud on a Mac with multiple user accounts (Mountain Lion)

When upgrading to Mountain Lion, you are asked to sign in using your iCloud ID. I don't understand how to set up the proper synching of "stuff" if your Mac has multiple user accounts, and they each have their own iCloud ID.
The whole issue of supporting multiple users on a Mac and making everything easy to understand with regard to iTunes and iCloud is, in my opinion, currently in a state of disaster. Apple needs to address this. They have conveniently made it a non-issue on iPads by not allowing multiple users. I can tell you that as one of the resident iOS and Apple experts in my office, most of the questions I get from others (not work-related) are on this topic. It needs to be easier to understand and accomplish.
Thanks in advance for any information you have on this subject.

Hi,
Did it work correctly before when logging in with domain user account? If so, please try opening Control Panel > Credential Manager and remove the cached credential entry of the Outlook account, and then restart Outlook to test the issue again.

Please also try logging into your email account from webmail access to see if there is any error.
Please let me know the result.

No file locking in office 2004 with local user

A user shares his home folder on Mac OS X 10.5.8. This user has a Excel file open in Office 2004. When an other user opens the same file using AFP file sharing there is no message warning the user the file is being modified by the local user.
All software is up-to-date. Does anyone know how to solve this problem?
This problem does not occur in Office 2008 with 10.6 clients.

Migrate itunes from pc to mac with multiple user accounts

I've read the numerous articles on transferring one's itunes library from a windows machine to a mac and I *think* I've got the details sorted (have itunes copy everything and then organize my library, then copy whole folder to external drive). I only have one itunes account but it my full library and itunes account is used across different windows user accounts.
My mac is setup with multiple user accounts and I'd like to have a single library and single itunes account (same apps, etc.,). I'm not quite sure how to migrate the library from windows and then set it up on the mac such that all mac user accounts are sharing the same library and itunes account. Any guidance?

To share your music with other accounts on the computer
On Mac OS X
1. Quit iTunes.
2. Locate your iTunes Music Folder. It is stored by default in ~/Music/iTunes or ~/Documents/iTunes/.
These folders cannot be accessed by other accounts on the computer. In order for other users to be able to access your music, you must move it to a publicly accessible location.
The Public folder in your home directory (~/Public), or to another folder outside your home directory that other users have access to, such as /Users/Shared.
Tip: The tilde "~" refers to your home folder. For more information see Mac OS X: Using Your Home Directory.
3. Drag the iTunes Music Folder to a publicly accessible location.
Important: Do not move the iTunes folder, the iTunes 4 Music Library file or the iTunes Library.xml file.
4. Open iTunes.
5. From the iTunes menu, choose Preferences.
6. Click Advanced.
7. Click the Change button.
8. Navigate in the Change Music Folder Location dialog to the location of your iTunes Music folder.
9. Click Choose.
Repeat these steps for each account that is sharing music with other users.
Note: If multiple users of a computer are storing music in one folder, duplicate song files are generated when a user imports music from CD that has already been imported by another user.

Problem with local users printing to the printer queue

We have just upgraded our servers to 2.8GHz Quad-core Intel Xeon which is running OS X 10.5.6
I have set up the printer queue to the network printers, through LPD.
Open directory users are able to print to the network printers without any problem however when a user local user to a machine (all 10.5.6 but different models) are not able to print.
The printer pauses and does not print.
Any solutions?

Hi there,
I am not quite sure of your setup based on your posting so apologies if my reply is not appropriate.
Are you saying that when the Mac attempts to print directly to the network printer (rather than via a queue created by selecting an Open Directory printer) the printer queue pauses?
If yes, then I would ensure that the LPD protocol was selected and the correct queue name was entered - as this can often cause the spooler to pause.

Can i login to other schema with diffrent user.

Hi !
I read that user is associated with schema.
so can i drop the user and preserve the schema and login to schema with other user.

Hi,
I read that user is associated with schema.
so can i drop the user and preserve the schema and login to schema with other user.If you drop a user, you drop the schema. There is no real difference between these two terms in Oracle Database.
But you could revoke any login-related privileges and lock the account to prevent that schema to be used for logging in.
You can still use objects (tables, views, procedures, ...) that exist in that schema using a different user that has grants on these objects. Which of the available access methods would fit best to your case depends on your usage scenario.

Hi Pavan,

That is possible, John, but it is only speculation on your part. Might, not will.

There is a "Lightroom 6" upgrade available for US $79 if you have a valid license for any of the earlier versions. From what I can tell, the only difference between Lightroom 6 Full, Lightroom 6 Upgrade and LightroomCC is in the license. The download file is the same.
Other differences - with CC you get LrMobile/LrWeb and they throw in a free copy of Photoshop too.
Yes, but when I bought my standalone license and clicked on the "Download" button it took me to the LightroomCC page. The downloaded file is named Lightroom 6, but in the CC app the installed program is LightroomCC (2015).

Configure Jabber for Mac with local CUCM and WebEx Connect

Hi, I was wondering if anyone has been able to configure the Jabber for Mac 8.6.2 client to use the WebEx Connect presence server with a local CUCM and Unity Connection servers. The preferences accounts tab does not show or allow the addition of the voice services. I have added from a working local CUCM preferences plist file what I believe are the correct entries however I still cannot see the accounts on the preferences tab. We currently do not have a local cisco presence server hence the requirement to trial the WebEx Connect server as I can't get past the first configuration step without it.
regards
paul

Hi - I have done this via the admin portal but still cannot get the Jabber client for Mac to register for voice. The Windows version works fine for the same user and CUCM device. Are there any other settings that need to be enabled specific to the Mac client?
Thanks.

How can I enable Active Directory network login while maintaining the existing local user account data?

We have a user base of around 15 Macs that we would like to integrate into Active Directory. However, we need to maintain the existing users local account data but do not wish to have that data moved to the network. Is there an easy way to create the AD login and then move the existing account data to the new login while maintaining correct permissions?
I've had some success logging in as root and deleting the existing account, while maintaining the home folder. Then renaming it to match the AD login account name and replacing the new and empty AD user home. I then perform a CHOWN on that folder to give ownership to the AD account name.
Is it this simple? I don't want to leave any loose ends.
Thanks for any help you can provide,
Scott
