Login Window Customization on macOS

Customize and secure the login window on your MacFleet devices to enhance security, branding, and user experience. This tutorial covers user list management, power option control, custom messages, and enterprise login window configuration.

Understanding macOS Login Window

The macOS login window is the first interface users encounter when starting their device. It provides several customization options:

  • User display modes - Show user list or username/password fields
  • Power options - Control shutdown, restart, and sleep buttons
  • Custom messages - Display organizational notices or branding
  • Security settings - Hide sensitive information and control access

Enterprise Considerations

Login window customization is crucial for enterprise security:

  • Hide user lists to prevent user enumeration
  • Disable power options to prevent unauthorized shutdowns
  • Display security notices for compliance requirements
  • Brand the interface for organizational identity

Basic Login Window Configuration

Display User List in Login Window

#!/bin/bash

# Show the list of users in the login window
defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.loginwindow SHOWFULLNAME false

echo "User list display enabled in login window"

Display Username/Password Dialog

#!/bin/bash

# Show username and password dialog instead of user list
defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.loginwindow SHOWFULLNAME true

echo "Username/password dialog enabled in login window"

Hide Power Options

#!/bin/bash

# Hide shutdown button
defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.loginwindow ShutDownDisabled true

# Hide restart button
defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.loginwindow RestartDisabled true

# Hide sleep button
defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.loginwindow SleepDisabled true

echo "All power options hidden from login window"

Enable Power Options

#!/bin/bash

# Enable shutdown button
defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.loginwindow ShutDownDisabled false

# Enable restart button
defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.loginwindow RestartDisabled false

# Enable sleep button
defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.loginwindow SleepDisabled false

echo "All power options enabled in login window"

Display Custom Message

#!/bin/bash

# Display a custom message on the login window
MESSAGE="Your device is managed by MacFleet. Contact IT for assistance."
defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.loginwindow LoginwindowText "$MESSAGE"

echo "Custom message set for login window"

Advanced Login Window Management

Important Notes

  • Administrator privileges required for login window modifications
  • Changes take effect after logout or restart
  • Test thoroughly on individual devices before fleet deployment
  • Backup settings before making changes
  • Security implications - Consider hiding user lists in high-security environments
  • User experience - Balance security with usability
  • Compliance requirements - Some industries require specific login window configurations
  • Special characters - Avoid exclamation marks in custom messages due to shell interpretation

Konfiguration eines GitHub Actions Runners auf einem Mac Mini (Apple Silicon)

GitHub Actions Runner

GitHub Actions ist eine leistungsstarke CI/CD-Plattform, die es Ihnen ermöglicht, Ihre Software-Entwicklungsworkflows zu automatisieren. Während GitHub gehostete Runner anbietet, bieten selbst-gehostete Runner erhöhte Kontrolle und Anpassung für Ihr CI/CD-Setup. Dieses Tutorial führt Sie durch die Einrichtung, Konfiguration und Verbindung eines selbst-gehosteten Runners auf einem Mac mini zur Ausführung von macOS-Pipelines.

Voraussetzungen

Bevor Sie beginnen, stellen Sie sicher, dass Sie haben:

  • Einen Mac mini (registrieren Sie sich bei Macfleet)
  • Ein GitHub-Repository mit Administratorrechten
  • Einen installierten Paketmanager (vorzugsweise Homebrew)
  • Git auf Ihrem System installiert

Schritt 1: Ein dediziertes Benutzerkonto erstellen

Erstellen Sie zunächst ein dediziertes Benutzerkonto für den GitHub Actions Runner:

# Das 'gh-runner' Benutzerkonto erstellen
sudo dscl . -create /Users/gh-runner
sudo dscl . -create /Users/gh-runner UserShell /bin/bash
sudo dscl . -create /Users/gh-runner RealName "GitHub runner"
sudo dscl . -create /Users/gh-runner UniqueID "1001"
sudo dscl . -create /Users/gh-runner PrimaryGroupID 20
sudo dscl . -create /Users/gh-runner NFSHomeDirectory /Users/gh-runner

# Das Passwort für den Benutzer setzen
sudo dscl . -passwd /Users/gh-runner ihr_passwort

# 'gh-runner' zur 'admin'-Gruppe hinzufügen
sudo dscl . -append /Groups/admin GroupMembership gh-runner

Wechseln Sie zum neuen Benutzerkonto:

su gh-runner

Schritt 2: Erforderliche Software installieren

Installieren Sie Git und Rosetta 2 (wenn Sie Apple Silicon verwenden):

# Git installieren, falls noch nicht installiert
brew install git

# Rosetta 2 für Apple Silicon Macs installieren
softwareupdate --install-rosetta

Schritt 3: Den GitHub Actions Runner konfigurieren

  1. Gehen Sie zu Ihrem GitHub-Repository
  2. Navigieren Sie zu Einstellungen > Actions > Runners

GitHub Actions Runner

  1. Klicken Sie auf "New self-hosted runner" (https://github.com/<username>/<repository>/settings/actions/runners/new)
  2. Wählen Sie macOS als Runner-Image und ARM64 als Architektur
  3. Folgen Sie den bereitgestellten Befehlen, um den Runner herunterzuladen und zu konfigurieren

GitHub Actions Runner

Erstellen Sie eine .env-Datei im _work-Verzeichnis des Runners:

# _work/.env Datei
ImageOS=macos15
XCODE_15_DEVELOPER_DIR=/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer
  1. Führen Sie das run.sh-Skript in Ihrem Runner-Verzeichnis aus, um die Einrichtung abzuschließen.
  2. Überprüfen Sie, dass der Runner aktiv ist und auf Jobs im Terminal wartet, und überprüfen Sie die GitHub-Repository-Einstellungen für die Runner-Zuordnung und den Idle-Status.

GitHub Actions Runner

Schritt 4: Sudoers konfigurieren (Optional)

Wenn Ihre Actions Root-Privilegien benötigen, konfigurieren Sie die sudoers-Datei:

sudo visudo

Fügen Sie die folgende Zeile hinzu:

gh-runner ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL

Schritt 5: Den Runner in Workflows verwenden

Konfigurieren Sie Ihren GitHub Actions Workflow, um den selbst-gehosteten Runner zu verwenden:

name: Beispiel-Workflow

on:
  workflow_dispatch:

jobs:
  build:
    runs-on: [self-hosted, macOS, ARM64]
    steps:
      - name: NodeJS installieren
        run: brew install node

Der Runner ist bei Ihrem Repository authentifiziert und mit self-hosted, macOS und ARM64 markiert. Verwenden Sie ihn in Ihren Workflows, indem Sie diese Labels im runs-on-Feld angeben:

runs-on: [self-hosted, macOS, ARM64]

Best Practices

  • Halten Sie Ihre Runner-Software auf dem neuesten Stand
  • Überwachen Sie regelmäßig Runner-Logs auf Probleme
  • Verwenden Sie spezifische Labels für verschiedene Runner-Typen
  • Implementieren Sie angemessene Sicherheitsmaßnahmen
  • Erwägen Sie die Verwendung mehrerer Runner für Lastverteilung

Fehlerbehebung

Häufige Probleme und Lösungen:

  1. Runner verbindet sich nicht:

    • Überprüfen Sie die Netzwerkverbindung
    • Überprüfen Sie die Gültigkeit des GitHub-Tokens
    • Stellen Sie angemessene Berechtigungen sicher

  2. Build-Fehler:

    • Überprüfen Sie die Xcode-Installation
    • Überprüfen Sie erforderliche Abhängigkeiten
    • Überprüfen Sie Workflow-Logs

  3. Berechtigungsprobleme:

    • Überprüfen Sie Benutzerberechtigungen
    • Überprüfen Sie sudoers-Konfiguration
    • Überprüfen Sie Dateisystem-Berechtigungen

Fazit

Sie haben jetzt einen selbst-gehosteten GitHub Actions Runner auf Ihrem Mac mini konfiguriert. Diese Einrichtung bietet Ihnen mehr Kontrolle über Ihre CI/CD-Umgebung und ermöglicht es Ihnen, macOS-spezifische Workflows effizient auszuführen.

Denken Sie daran, Ihren Runner regelmäßig zu warten und ihn mit den neuesten Sicherheitspatches und Software-Versionen auf dem neuesten Stand zu halten.
