ADPassMon is dead, long live NoMAD
Standard
3 years ago today, I announced my fork of ADPassMon. But time has now come to send ADPassMon out to pasture & allow the new kid on the block, NoMAD to take the throne.
Below is a brief history of ADPassMon & why now seems the right time to do this.
AutoCasperNBI & AutoImagrNBI 1.3.4, Sierra compatible & other changes

Project Updates October 2015
Standard
So it’s been a busy few months, whilst I’ve generally been falling apart I’ve also been busy with various projects I own or am involved in & a side project to those has had a massive update.
As such, I felt it was a good time to quickly post an update on the goings on. Details below.

Standard
Say hello to AutoCasperNBI’s relative AutoImagrNBI.
As the name implies, AutoImagrNBI is a variant of AutoCasperNBI but will create NetBoot images for use with Imagr.
This came about as the requirements for an NBI for Imagr are similar to that of Casper Imaging, & so hasn’t been a massive amount of work needed.
AutoImagrNBI differs from AutoNBI in that the end result is a NetBoot Image & not a NetInstall Image. A NetBoot Image is a full OS that can be made available for network booting, whereas NetInstall is a limited environment. AutoImagrNBI can also create a DMG for restoring to external media such as USB sticks.

AutoCasperNBI – Release

If you hang around on JAMFNation, you may have seen the “AutoCasperNBI – open beta” thread.
Well today, (whilst presenting at JNUC2014) I’m happy to announce the full release of AutoCasperNBI.

ANNOUNCING: ADPassmon v2 fork
Standard
UPDATE: My fork of ADPassMon has now been merged with main & many changes have been made, for more information follow this link. The Wiki on the GitHub project replaces the details below.
Over the past two posts, I have detailed two issues with 10.9
In looking at resolving issue 1, I revisited Peter Bukowinski’s excellent ADPassMon. This is a great app, but has never quite suited my environment, as such I grabbed the code off of GitHub & got stuck in.
This has resulted in me, on this most foolish of days & with a nervous excitement, announcing my ADPassMon fork. In time I hope this fork joins the is committed to the main release.
So why did I go to all this trouble? What does it do? Read below.
