You know, times like when you need to install software on a machine, or do some other admin task but don’t have a user account that is admin. One of the workflows that they presented was to utilize the local admin account that is created during a PreStage enrollment as a local admin account for times when you need an admin account. I'm not a moderator and not trying to moderate just a list member.During JNUC 2022 the GOATs, Mark Buffington and Sean Rabbitt, presented “ One Account to P0wn Them All: How to Move Away from a Shared Admin Account”. But these types of questions would probably be better asked on the MacEnterprise list or a forum for the product you're discussing so that the signal to noise ratio is kept low here. The expertise here is really excellent and diverse. I don't really mind occasional off-topic questions on a list for Casper. If not then you will need to manually create a DNS A record in Infoblox if that is what your organization is using for company-wide DNS.Ī personal note and others are fine to disagree with me. You also need to determine if your AD system is integrated with your Infoblox system. Verify that it is still bound in AD or that it's binding in the first place.ĭon’t put in the Computer Name field if you're doing so. If your server appears to regress to server1.local then it's losing its binding. Only after your server is bound to a directory system will its name become.

Until you bind your server to AD, OD or whatever directory system you're using your server will be server1.local. Host name would be something like: server1ĭNS/FQDN would be something like: The DNS hostname is not available, please repair DNS and re-run this tool. Senior IT Analyst / Desktop Architecture Team / Apple S.M.E / JAMF Casper Administrator We use DNS servers here already so my IP Forwarders are pointing to that and my server is pointing to them also. Can someone give me some insight on why this happens and how do I get this to goto. I am not a DNS or server expert and I am racking my brain trying to figure out why all of the sudden after a reboot my server is no longer pingable and why it is now server.local again. would show up and it was happy days! With Lion however that is not the case. In the past I just setup the server, put in the Static IP given to me, and put the name in, bound to AD, disabled internal DNS, and bam that was it. So I work in a messy flat environment and DNS and Mac's don't like each other very much.
