The worst part of it seems to be that for the latest release (2018), the "installer" is an app that JAMF Admin doesn't like, so I can't push it out through a simple policy. Just to bump this one, since I am also looking for a better means of deploying Tuxera NTFS. If you want to use Composer the JAMF KB articles are obviously a good resource. In terms of resources, Rich Trouton's blog is a very good resource on using Packages for slightly more complicated titles like Office or Sophos and will give you an idea on how to add pre/post install scripts to your packages. There is a wealth of resources in JAMFNation and if you search for specific questions you, more often than not, find the answer. Some advise to begin with would be to initially approach this on a per-app basis (as you have done with Tuxera NTFS) and go with the best method available for that particular software. Obviously, the more packaging you do the more you will gain experience and things will make a lot more sense. do you want to include the license info in every package or separate these and have a blank installer to be followed by a package/script that applies the licensing?). What are your personal deployment preferences (i.e.What are the T&C's for the particular license you are trying to package? You may be restricted by compliance policies, activation processes etc.predominantly mobile/ static or inside / outside a domain/LAN etc.) What are the characteristics of your environment (i.e.are JSS policies sufficient for you or will you be looking at AutoPKG etc) What packaging tools are you comfortable with (and how good are your scripting skills)?.But there are other, equally important, reasons such as: The primary reason is that not all applications are licensed in the same way. Hi This is actually a fairly big topic and I don't think you'll be able to find a one-size-fits-all guide for including license information in packaged apps.
