Create a new AD group and mirror members from existing AD group.

# The New AD Group Name
$NewGrpName = "Pilot"

# Group Scope: DomainLocal, Global, Universal
$GrpScope = "Global"

# New AD Group Description
$GrpDescription = "This is a pilot group"

# AD Group Category: Distribution, Security
$GrpCat = "Security"

# AD Path of OU
$OUPath = "OU=groups,OU=YourOU,DC=YourDomain,DC=com"

# Use an existing AD Group to mirror membership
$ExistingGrpName = "MirrorThisGroupMembers"

# Cmdlet command line using above variables
New-ADGroup -name $NewGrpName -GroupScope $GrpScope -description $GrpDescription -GroupCategory $GrpCat -path $OUPath -passthru |

Mac – Bash – Install Fink

Posted on

email me

Fink is a project that wants to bring the full world of Unix Open Source software to Darwin and Mac OS X. As a result, we have two main goals. First, to modify existing Open Source software so that it will compile and run on Mac OS X. (This process is called porting.) Second, to make the results available to casual users as a coherent, comfortable distribution that matches what Linux users are used to. (This process is called packaging.) The project offers precompiled binary packages as well as a fully automated build-from-source system.

 

This is how you install Fink on a Mac:

Step 1 – Install Java JDK

Step 2 – Install Xcode command-line tools

xcode-select --install

Step 3 – Save and Run helper script (script.tool)

Mac – Disable Chrome Auto Updates

Method 1

On Mac, you can go to “Users > Your Mac Drive > Library > Google > GoogleSoftwareUpdate” and rename this folder.


Method 2

Open Finder and go to “Applications” folder.

Right click or control + click on the Google Chrome folder and go to “Show Packaged Content”.

Click “Contents” folder and open “Info.plist” file. Remember you need to have editors like Xcode to open plist file. Also you should have write permission for both “Contents” folder and “Info.plist” file to edit.

Look for “KSUpdateURL” key. In our case this is pointing to “https://tools.google.com/service/update2”.

Simply rename the file to something else and save your changes.


Method 3

Version=$(/Applications/Google\ Chrome.app/Contents/MacOS/Google\ Chrome --version | awk '{print $3}')

sudo rm -rf /Applications/Google\ Chrome.app/Contents/Frameworks/Google\ Chrome\ Framework.framework/Versions/"$Version"/Frameworks/KeystoneRegistration.framework

Slack 4.0.2 August 19, 2019

Bug Fixes

  • Videos in channels were found to be the cause of a minor (but pesky) memory leak that has now been well and truly plugged.
  • It’s taken a few tries, but the app should now crash less often when connected to an external display. Hopefully.
  • On opening your computer, the app is now, thankfully, more likely to launch properly every time. And, if you’re using the direct download version, you can choose whether that launch is in the background, or front and center.
  • We spruced up the notifications a little so now they’ll not only show up every time you need them to, they’ll show up looking like whatever theme you wear proudly on your sidebar. Neat.
  • Now whenever an app update is available, we’ll send you a polite little notification to tell you so.
  • If you’d become used to opening Slack from a shortcut on your desktop or menu… you’ll know that we broke that recently. Sorry about that. It is now unbroken once more.
  • While using focus assist in Windows, we’ll now assist that focus further, by no longer serving you noisy notifications. Sorry about that.
  • Using the alt key to move focus to the menu is great… but was a little over-excitable. Should you tap it by mistake (or otherwise), it will no longer take ALL the focus, and you can continue to do other things.
