Yeah, like here is an example of a post image script I am using to force an admin log in after image, since some of the stuff I install post imaging requires that a user be logged in.
The $admin1 variables are the variables I hard code at the beginning of my shell scripts to create the local administration accounts. So, when I update the script to change passwords or change accounts, it will still use whatever I hard code at the top.
This is really cool because now after I image a Mac, the post image script automates everything for me and I can sit back and relax and let it do it's job for me. The alternative is manually logging into 6,000 Macbooks, no thanks.
Please help me to make this script to create a key based on these parameters:
the output of $USER is smithm for mike smith
the output of id smithm is uid=1042(smithm) gid=20(staff) groups=20(staff), 1025(group1), 1057(group2), 1028(group5), 1038(group3), 1037(group4)

What I want my script to do is to run a command in Terminal and close that same Terminal window when the process is complete.
Of course I could ad a delay of 6 seconds to complete the process, but it may not be enough every time.

Hi all...
I am trying to create a shell project purely for this Macbook Pro.
I do NOT want to use SOX as the sampling _source_ but Quicktime
instead, the idea being that NO third party installs will be needed.

does not do... (2 Replies)

rbash
RBASH(1) General Commands Manual RBASH(1)NAME
rbash - restricted bash, see bash(1)RESTRICTED SHELL
If bash is started with the name rbash, or the -r option is supplied at invocation, the shell becomes restricted. A restricted shell is
used to set up an environment more controlled than the standard shell. It behaves identically to bash with the exception that the follow-
ing are disallowed or not performed:
o changing directories with cd
o setting or unsetting the values of SHELL, PATH, ENV, or BASH_ENV
o specifying command names containing /
o specifying a file name containing a / as an argument to the . builtin command
o specifying a filename containing a slash as an argument to the -p option to the hash builtin command
o importing function definitions from the shell environment at startup
o parsing the value of SHELLOPTS from the shell environment at startup
o redirecting output using the >, >|, <>, >&, &>, and >> redirection operators
o using the exec builtin command to replace the shell with another command
o adding or deleting builtin commands with the -f and -d options to the enable builtin command
o using the enable builtin command to enable disabled shell builtins
o specifying the -p option to the command builtin command
o turning off restricted mode with set +r or set +o restricted.
These restrictions are enforced after any startup files are read.
When a command that is found to be a shell script is executed, rbash turns off any restrictions in the shell spawned to execute the script.
