Unfortunately, he doesn’t providemuch in the way of specifics. A processor upgrade is expected, but the report doesn’t say if the mini will receive a new chassis, ports, or any design update otherwise. The news not entirely surprising given how long its been – especially considering Apple’s – but it’s encouraging nonetheless. The Mac mini has long been the most accessible Mac – it starts at $499 – but its hardware is so ancient that buying one is a terrible deal unless you really need a desktop Mac on the cheap.
But it’s not just the Mac mini. In fact, Kuo expects Apple to provide updates around all of its product categories this fall. And we’ve already written extensively about the rumored,. One new tidbit on the laptops is that Kuo believes there will be a new, low cost MacBook in addition to spec bumps for the rest of them.

The report also suggests Apple is working on two new Apple Watch models this year, with bigger displays and improved heart rate detection. It’s not clear if the watches themselves will be bigger or if Apple is just shrinking the bezels, though I’m hoping for the latter. Lastly, the report claims the iMac will get a spec bump too. Now if Apple would only release that Via Read next.
This blog is combining two new recent themes I’ve been using; Customer Requests and Proxies! This time, I had a customer who wished to rollout a new proxy solution.
W1 Fork Get For Mac Pro
In order to avoid the multiple proxy authentication popups, but still allow user level filtering and, more importantly, logging, a local Agent (called the “WAgent”) needed to be installed and configured. To help wit this problem I wrote this blog to give you a guide on deploying and managing NetSweeper Mac WAgent The ingredient list So, what do we need for this?. The proxy server address configured on the client devices. This is to force the clients to actually use the proxy, rather than bypass it.
The proxy server’s certificate installed and trusted locally. This is to allow the proxy server to inspect SSL traffic. Annoying but required in most / all UK education institutions. The WAgent installed locally. To be used to identify the logged in user to the proxy solution, as detailed above. The WAgent configured correctly.
W1 Fork Get For Machine
So it knows which server it should be passing the information the WAgent collects to. Right, lets start working the list! Working the list: Proxy server address Well, remember my last on using a profile to configure proxies?
Don’t like the profile method, how about? Working the list: Proxy server certificate Another nice easy one. Simply grab the Proxy server’s certificate that you need to deploy, and utilise the “Certificates” payload in a profile to push it out. This profile will deploy the certificate to the client devices’ keychain, and set the trust settings to ‘always trust’. This will ensure that the certificate is trusted at a system level for all users.
Working the list: WAgent tool Now this is where things get fun complicated (ok, sometimes my definition of fun is weird). The installer my customer was provided is a.app installer Before you get the pitch forks out, there is an arguably valid reason. The installer helps configure the locally installed WAgent with the settings it needs to work. Unfortunately this same ‘good intention’ means we can’t deploy the Agent using the provided installer.
(Don’t worry, I’ll come back to configuring it in the next section) What I did find is, if you right click and hit “Show Package Contents” on this “WAgent Configurator”, and go to “Contents” - “Resources” you get a regular looking.mpkg file! More importantly, this can then be deployed using your weapon deployment tool of choice. I’d suggest if you’re using something like or, stick this installer on as a “At Reboot” or “Postponed” installation. Working the list: WAgent Settings Ooo, so close now, just one item left, configuring the WAgent properly! After some digging and testing, I found that the settings the WAgent Configurator.app sets are of the standard.plist variety and stored in /Library/Preferences/con.netsweeper.WAgent-Configurator.plist.
More importantly, these settings can be managed through the use of everyone’s favourite, Configuration Profiles (Woo! Go NetSweeper Devs!) WAgent Settings: How should I do it?
Well, I think you’ve got two choices:. Pick a ‘packaging’ Mac, install the WAgent and run the configurator app to set it up. Test this and make sure it all works. Then use Tim Sutton’s MCXToProfile to convert the plist at /Library/Preferences/con.netsweeper.WAgent-Configurator.plist to a configuration profile.
Deploy this as you wish (Munki, Casper, local install, other MDM of choice etc). Grab a copy of the profile I’ve used from GitHub. Change lines 20 and 24 to the address of your NetSweeper box. Change lines 22 and 28 to the port of your NetSweeper box.
Deploy this as you wish (Munki, Casper, local install, other MDM of choice etc). Summary There you go, hopefully that’ll give other Mac Admins using NetSweeper a heads up on how to deploy their Mac Agent. As always, if you have any questions, queries or comments, let us know below and I’ll try to respond to and delve into as many as I can.
