Hi, it would be nice to have a pkg instead of a dmg file to install the software with an MDM like Jamf, but for now with the Composer app I've solved.

But the most important feature it would be to have the possibility to have the possibility to manage the configuration of the app and the shares using a Jamf profile like Network Share Mounter app, or similar.

@darkolo Apologies for the delayed response and thank you for your suggestion - very much appreciate them and even more so for you posting them in the forum. Thanks! 👍 

Creating a PKG file may be an option in the near future, as I'm working on my own tool to create PKGs.
May take a few weeks though, since I'm trying to automate a lot of the mondaine develop tasks with my won app. 😊 

 

As for supporting config profiles:
The use of profiles feels like a of great use for a system admin, for Device Management type purposes. So for corporate use.
ConnectMeNow is more geared towards home-use for now anyway.

Implementing this would also take quite a bit of time to figure out how this works, and to implement this as well.
So if I would go that route, I'd probably create a commercial version for that.

 

On that note:
It may be helpful to know that in the INI file, you can enter the username and password as plain text.
The first time ConnectMeNow loads this file, it will encrypt username and password automatically.

Look for these, and replace "XYZ12345678=" with the username and password in plain text.

Username=XYZ12345678=
Password=XYZ12345678=

So with some scripting (as done by one of the corporate users of CMN) you may be able to make admin work easier.

Thank you very much Hans! If a commercial version supporting configuration profiles will be released I'll be one of the first to buy it.

I'll go look into this in the near future for sure 😊 

Been doing my first test to manually submit to the Apple App Store (miniWOL - just to get my feet wet), so maybe in the near future I can do this.

Just being curious but what would you consider a fair price? (privately and commercially)
Again: just trying to learn here.
Come to think of it; I'd even have to figure out how this commercially would work through the App Store.
