Info

Computer-Specific Network Settings In order to change the network settings for a computer, Casper Imaging must be able to locate a network configuration that has the same settings (for instance, manually, using DHCP with a manual IP address, using DHCP, or using BootP) as the computer. For example, if a computer requires a manually entered IP address, the configuration must require the same. If only a few computers require a certain network configuration (or your OS package does not have one of the network configuration types listed in Casper Imaging), you can build a package that contains the following file: /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/preferences.plist You should take this file from a computer that has the network configuration type you are looking for, such as manually or using DHCP with a manual IP address. This section explains how to: Change the network settings Set the Apple Remote Desktop info fields • Reset or fix permissions after imaging Display the Mac OS X Setup Assistant on the first boot • To change the network settings: 1. Open Casper Imaging. 2. Click the Custom Install button in the toolbar. 3. Click the Network tab. 4. Choose “Ethernet” or “Airport” from the Show pop-up menu. 270
5. Choose the network configuration type from the Configure IPv4 pop-up menu, and then make the necessary changes. Note: Any fields left blank will not be modified when Casper Imaging updates the settings. To set the Apple Remote Desktop info fields: 1. Open Casper Imaging. 2. Click the Custom Install button in the toolbar. 3. Click the Advanced tab and specify any relevant information. To reset or fix permissions after imaging: 1. Open Casper Imaging. 2. Click the Custom Install button in the toolbar. 271
