Recently apple has imposed IPv6 support as mandatory for all its vendors who use its mobile-api and aws vpc doesn't provide IPv6 support. How can I achieve this. I have checked https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/elastic-load-balancing-ipv6-zone-apex-support-additional-security/ however I am not sure what to do.
I would need expert advise here.
Being the evil corporate IT overlords we need to block the new OS X App Store. As you may be aware the 10.6.6 update installs the App Store App which allows users to download and install apps without admin privileges.
Some Suggestions:
Don't update to 10.6.6+
Use parental controls
Presumably some OD policy (if you have an OD server which we don't)
Block the App store by DNS or Proxy
Not updating to 10.6.6+ isn't really a long term solution as it contains security fixes and new Macs will come with it anyway. Blocking the App store at a network level doesn't solve laptop users.
Ideally a simple system preference or editing of a plist that can be pushed out by ARD would be the best solution.
Please note the question isn't should we block the App store, it's how we can block the App store.
As a quick update it seems that is you are not using an account with admin privileges, you may need supply admin credentials for the first time you download an app to install it, which may solve some of the problem. Very different behavior to the normal OS X elevation of privileges which ask admins and non admins alike.
Is there any way to install or activate sshd in an Apple Time Capsule in the way you can download dd-wrt and install custom firmware on a netgear router?
I'd like to enable sshfs access to Time Capsule. And possibly install pyTivo to have it serve files to my Tivo.
Anyone done this?
I just got my iPhone, and am on an app-downloading spree. Help me build my list of apps!
I'm marking this question as fun so that we can also include apps that aren't necessarily useful for IT people, but that IT people might enjoy. However, if it is more of a "fun" app, please mark your answer community wiki.
Also, here's the comparable question on stackoverflow.
Up until now, I've only managed networks with Windows users and the occasional *nix server. Soon, a few users with Macs will get added to our network. What are some "gotchas" to look out for when adding Macs to the network? Key concerns here: compatibility with Active Directory and security
