Re: help changing one pref with unix and ARD

this is what i ended up using:

cd /Users
for u in *; do
echo Updating for user $u
su $u -c "defaults write -g com.apple.AppleShareClientCore -dict-add
afp_cleartext_allow -boolean NO"
done

thanks a lot for this. i'll work on it.

Please write back if you get it working -- I'm pretty sure this approach
will work, but I can't think of the syntax for it. It would be
interesting to see how it gets solved.

I'd think you could do this for all users on a machine with a block of
shell code something like this:

for user in `nidump passwd . | sed 's/:.*//'`
do
sudo -u $user defaults write ...
done

...but getting the `defaults write ...` is the bit I'm stuck on.
