FORTINET VPN FOR MAC INSTALL
This is where I put the "Packages.app is a great packaging tool" comment.especially when you're designing a Mac packaging workflow that facilitates quick updates to existing pacakges.Ĭheckpoint Endpoint Security E75 is a good example of stuff being created at install time, specific to the Mac it's being installed on, that simply can't be captured (they must have hired ex-Adobe engineers). Then wrap that stuff up as a second payload, or put it into the above wrapper (I guess monolythic vs programatic approach, whether to end up with one or two packages). Then see if a snapshot can help you determine what needs to be captured.that's IF you can capture what's needed. I would wrap Install.mpkg in a FortiClient-FortiClient-5.0.2.98 package (vendor-application-version), to deploy the client. The Install.mpkg tested fine, pushed to logged off Mac.so it passes the zero-touch deployment litmus test. Once the REAL installer is downloaded and triggered, then COMMAND-click the installer title bar to get to the enclosing folder, which for my test shows up as: /private/var/folders/k8/9rryssq947vfrg6w67902h3c0000gp/T/fctupdate/įortiClient.dmg <- Install.mpkg is also in here

Do they not know their own product? Perhaps not.Ī quick glance, the initial download gives you "FortiClient_5.0.3.105_Installer.dmg" which only contains a 400K "FortiClientUpdate.app" application that downloads the REAL installer. On a side note, its amazing they can't give you even some guidance on what gets configured. In some cases you might need to script it with something like defaults or PlistBuddy. Even monitoring file system changes for a few seconds can pull in dozens of files not related to what you're configuring, so just be careful to examine everything carefully afterwards. I recommend doing it on as clean a system as you possibly can, maybe even one not joined to your domain for example, to prevent all kinds of extra stuff getting picked up.

I sometimes use Composer snapshots or the "Monitor File System Changes" method just to figure out what's being dropped on the system during a manual configuration and take things from there. Not necessarily that you'd want to just wrap up whatever Composer sees, but you can use it as a basis of what files and preferences, etc to examine.

The post registration and config part is the only place I would use a snapshot method in Composer to at least figure out what files it may be adding as the client gets configured.
