Re: [Radmind-users] Is anyone still using radmind?

Just to add to the tally.

I am using radmind on ~500 Macs running Mojave in our university computer classrooms/labs. But like Tom Johnson, I have to move forward this summer with the OS and am considering falling in line with the rest of our campus (Jamf).

Quick questions for Troy Barkmeier (or anyone that wants to chime in):
- Did settling the relative path to /System/Volumes/Data help simplify your negative.T at all?
- Are you using any kind of MDM with this (e.g. to deploy a Privacy Preferences Policy Control profile)? If so, what solution did you pick?

Sincerely,

We are still using it to manage about 500 of the general use lab machines on campus here. Macs are mostly iMacs (iMac16,2 up through iMac20,1) with about 80 Mac minis (8,1) in instructor podiums, and are all running macOS 11.6.1, dual-booting with Windows 10 21H1. As we've been doing for years, radmind runs on logout and cleans everything up for the next user. Biggest issue was dealing with the SSL library that Big Sur dropped. Other than that, and some ongoing weirdness with the Transcript Editor app, I honestly feel like radmind is working better than ever for me. I just set the relative path to /System/Volumes/Data, since you can't really touch anything else now anyway, and away it goes. Been pushing 11.x macOS updates by pushing full installers to run overnight, since they are the only things that can mess with the System volume at this point. It's been very freeing to have huge swaths of macOS that NO ONE can mess up, in my opinion. I don't worry about not being able to manage that part with radmind any more than I do firmware.

Likely starting my radmind development cycle for Apple Silicon and Monterey in the next couple of weeks; will keep you posted.

Is anyone still using radmind? About a month and a half ago I found a need and I've been trying to set up a radmind server running on docker. I got it working today. The source files are located at https://github.com/Radmind/docker-radmind and the docker image can be pulled with `docker pull ghcr.io/radmind/docker-radmind:main`<http://ghcr.io/radmind/docker-radmind:main>.
