Binary from PKG and missing plist files #37

Closed iamoverrated closed 4 years ago

iamoverrated commented 4 years ago

After installing the binary, there wasn't a plist file created in /Library/Preferences. I have no idea where the plist file needs to go. I've tried manually adding them to /Library/Preferences but the application won't read any of the settings. Any help would be appreciated.

@iamoverrated Did you use the PKG installer under releases? This will install the binary and the plist file as well as a way to call macOSLAPS from the terminal if needed.

@iamoverrated,

Please use the package installer which should give you everything you need. The plist file should be created with either the defaults command in /Library/Preferences or you can use MDM to create the PLIST file which will live in /Library/Managed Preferences.

Thanks!
