Have you ever needed to log into several machines in a lab but hated going to each one and typing in your credentials. Well thanks to “David Kahn3″ and others for coming up with the following script,

osascript <<EOF
tell application “System Events”
keystroke tab
keystroke (ASCII character 8 )
keystroke tab
keystroke (ASCII character 8 )
keystroke return
delay 0.5
keystroke tab
keystroke “username”
keystroke tab
delay 0.5
keystroke “password”
delay 0.5
keystroke return
keystroke return
keystroke return
keystroke return
end tell
EOF

I was able to push this script out using Apple Remote Desktop (run as root not admin) to my macs while they were at the login screen window. Just a few changes for the account username/password fields and bam the computers logged in without me having to even touch them.Beautiful

She told me Apple was soon to come to The Shops at Friendly Center. Not that there’s enough stuff there already, but it will fit in perfectly with the feng shui.

I searched and found two listing already in Craigslist for store positions. Has Apple grown so large that it can put a store in Greensboro, North Carolina? Apparently this will be store number four in this state, sorry Winston-Salem, ya missed out. But when you come visit the Apple store at Friendly be sure to try out Jay’s Deli, they have great ham and cheese omelette’s. :-)
