swy: If you have a second, try the second URL I sent while you're logged into apple.com with your Apple ID--do you get dropped at a page that lists what swy@swy.com owns where you need to pick a computer? Or is it only Iowans?

Real quick, when did the "SMB2" variant of the protocol get introduced? 10.9 or prior?

10.9

foigus: Thanks

foigus: OK, if logged in, then yeah, I get 68 things to choose from. I didn't realize this existed.

When Apple started supporting it != when it was introduced

you own 68 computers? You must be rich.

obviously.

Anyways, you won't be able to schedule an appointment without specifying a computer, and specifying a computer requires serial + purchase date

or, I used to be, then I traded the $ for 68 computers.

gneagle: See, not just Iowans. Wisconsinites as well.

don't log in before asking to schedule: solved. All across the midwest.

swy: But if you want to do a non-computer-specified appointment you'll need to log out of your Apple ID

define "non-computer-specified"

Where you don't have to attach a computer (serial + purchase date) to your Apple ID and specify that the Genius Bar appointment is for that computer.

And for SMB3: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/conten...

I've never specificed the serial # before the appointment. Hasn't caused a problem.

I don't think it yet does. Who knows how Apple will gyrate tomorrow.

Perhaps they'll extend the requirement to California.

Or at least other states with professional sports teams.

I'll sove for that when I have to.

solve

Tempted to change the topic to something like "We've merged with ##windows-server, this channel will be closed down in 4 hours"

Honestly, though, this is a pretty tame April 1st

meh xxd is weird

using seek doesn't actually end up skipping x bytes in the output

frogor: Nobody would buy it

gneagle: Plus there's that whole timezones thing *shakes fist at Aussies*

They are all asleep now anyway

hi guys. I'm experimenting with the mail server on OS X 10.10 and I'm wondering whether the push notification certificate created through the server.app and that can be viewed here https://identity.apple.com/pweb/ "Apple Push Certificates Portal" can be created without the server.app? Are the push notification certs not the same as those that can be created as an iOS developer?

anyone deployed special fonts before with deploystudio or munki?

What's special about them?

Fonts are files. Install them. Done.

@halloweenhead if by special, you just mean non standard, its on my todo list

nothing really. just that they're fonts not already installed in font book

halloweenhead: Put 'em in /Library/Fonts, make sure you're licensed to install as many copies as you're installing

I think you just need to place them in /Library/Fonts?

is there a command to install fonts via the cli

halloweenhead: There's no install

Why would you need a command?

cp

ditto

There's just put

rcp

rsync

k

installer -pkg some_fonts.pkg -target /

gonna go out on a limb and ask if anyone here is using kace

Paging Avatharian

Paging rtrouton

jyang__ I use it for ticketing but not for anything Mac

hydrajump I'm afraid you'll probably not find a lot of people here running the OS X Server mail server..

ctdawe: And there's a reason for that

gneagel hallo?

gneagle Indeed.

herp

gneagle: hallo

oh

jyang__: Hi. Resident KACE Victim Here. I'll start by giving my standard response. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=meOCdyS7ORE

great - do you actually use it for management/software?

im already in a KACE env but im just completely working around it

I use it currently forimaging and software management and scripting yeah.

spend as much time fighting with it as using it though.

is the config file with your server supposed to be '/Library/Application Support/Dell/KACE/data/amp.conf' ?

I was going to say yes, then I checked mine and found it was blank... which it usually isn't. Odd. Lemme look at something real quick.

hello everyone

Oh nevermind it's not blank, Sublime is just derping.

ok, yes, that's the file that contains the server hostname

@Avatharian ah okay. I was playing around with this http://www.enterpriseosx.com/kace-1000-agent-ma...

and using installer - It didnt generate an amp.conf

Why on earth doesn't KACE supply a silent installer

they do

for pcs

Why not for Macs?

Hmm. I have just been provisioning the client through the provisioning interface on the Kbox

seems to install silently for me just fine.

You are paying for their product, no?

They claim to support OS X, no?

"paying for it" indeed

Keep in mind that article is for a version that's well out of date. Or are you still on version 5.x?

5.x

ah.
