Update: Well, it has been a couple weeks and I have been keeping an eye on the test computers and it looks like the LikeWise plug'n could not help with this either. Just checked the computer this morn. and all of them have dropped AD login. So once again back to square one. I cannot...

This week I have been testing LikeWise Open and so far it's working rather nicely and this eve. I will pushing this out to a dozen computers in our commons/library area and I will let them be. I will be keeping an eye on them and if they do not start dropping AD authentication login on the Macs...

Yes, AD above OD. So if the AD user is not there or does not get access to AD at all users (Students) know there is a "student" user that will let them in. This "student" user is from OD. I half though about imaging labs weekly but still a big job and if there are issues with a image session...

Hardware & OS X Verion I have a few hundred Macs that are running anywhere between Mac OS X Leopard 10.5.6 - 10.5.8 (Most are 10.5.8 but there are a few labs that require a lower OS version due to software). The computers range from iMac G5's, Mac Pro's & iMac Intel Core 2 Duo's. Our AD...

For the moment I have now added Public Beta images to the full article. As for getting the images, it not hard but for use I want permission from the original site which I have now. Now for my next article, want to put together screen shots and a good wtie up on the OS's prior to OS X and get...

Ya, when I look back OS X 10.0-10.2 had a not so great DUI. Panther turned it around. As for iTunes, went from being a mp3 player to, well, everything related to Apple such as iphones, ipods, music, applications etc. :P

Ya, big difference from 10.2 - 10.3, Panther made it a lot easier on the eyes as well was a smoother running system at least for me when it came to working in big networking environment.

I was pretty much at my desk all day so in the background I had it installing the OS's :)
