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.

tiff2fax
TIFF2FAX(8C)TIFF2FAX(8C)NAME
tiff2fax - convert TIFF for facsimile transmission by HylaFAX
SYNOPSIS
/var/spool/fax/bin/tiff2fax [ options ] file
DESCRIPTION
bin/tiff2fax takes TIFF input and generates a TIFF Class F image file suitable for facsimile transmission. It is usually invoked by the
HylaFAX scheduler process, faxq(8C). The default implementation uses the tiffcheck(8C) program and tools from the freely available TIFF
software distribution to implement the conversion operations.
This script can modify outgoing facsimile, such as watermarking, To do this create a shell script etc/FaxModify in the spooling area that
alters the document.
OPTIONS
The following operations are recognized:
-1 Write Group 3 1D-encoded data to the output file.
-2 Write Group 3 2D-encoded data to the output file.
-3 Write Group 4 MMR-encoded data to the output file.
-m pages Set the maximum number of pages that are permitted in the output file. If more pages are present in the input document then
abort processing.
-o file Write output to the specified file instead of the default foo.tif filename.
-w width Set the output page width, in pixels. By default, pages are 1728 pixels wide.
-l length Set the output page length in millimeters. By default, pages are 297 millimeters long.
-r vres Set the vertical resolution, in lines/inch, at which to image the POSTSCRIPT.
FILES
/usr/sbin/tiffcheck TIFF file conversion examiner
/var/spool/fax/bin/ps2fax POSTSCRIPT RIP for doing complicated conversions
/usr/bin/tiffcp for converting compression schemes
/usr/bin/tiff2ps for colorspace and/or image size conversions
BUGS
Conversions that require re-imaging and resizing may result in images that are poorly placed on the page.
There is no way to control how images are treated when they are resized; e.g. the original aspect ratio is not always maintained.
