Fix Permissions By SW 2.7
Fix Permissions By SW - Repairs permissions on Mac OS X more>>
***THERE IS NO APPLICATION!*** (the installer IS the program!)
Great for using with ARD/NetBoot.
When the "installer" is run, Disk Utility runs its "repair permissions" command in the background. If you want to "repair permissions" again, "install" the package again.
This program runs the command
"sudo diskutil repairPermissions /"
Thats it....its just in a package to make life easier.
Enhancements:
- More logging for system events
- Log files now placed in separate directory (/Library/Logs/SISUWORKS/FixPermissionsBySW.log)
- Reduced dependency on executing commands as root, due to the fact that root authentication is required anyways
- Forced Software to only run on Root volume (currently booted volume) to clear up some confusion.
