UninstallLync

According to Microsoft, Lync must be completely uninstalled, following the procedures documented at https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj945448(v=office.14).aspx, at least for Calendar functionality to work correctly.

This repo contains a python script for removing all referenced Lync components for all normal users on a machine, i.e., with homes in /Users.

It is somewhat naive in that it assumes the users have not moved the Lync keychain items out of the Login keychain and into some other keychain. It handles the potential for multiple "your.email@domain.com" certificates in the login keychain, however. This is all done by running the security command as a subprocess. Improvements could probably be made to do this all with the Security Framework and the PyObjC bridge, but this gets the job done.

Using UninstallLync in Your Environment

You will need to edit the pattern global APP_PW_PATTERN at the top of the uninstall_lync.py script to look for your environment's email domai

###Using CodeSignatureVerification in your recipe

The CodeSignatureVerifier processor was added to allow signature verification for both:

1. Installer packages (.pkg or .mpkg).

2. Application bundles (.app). This option is necessary since not all software is supplied as packages. Instead, software is commonly released for download 'bare' at the root of a zip archive. CodeSignatureVerifier can look inside a DMG mount, but zip's must use the Unarchiver processor first.

Take into account the fact that both the computer running autopkg and the one that genrates the required configuration settings should have the default spctl settings, meaning Gatekeeper allows apps from the App Store and those signed with an Apple-recognized Developer ID. ####Adding Application bundle (.app) verification to your recipe

reposado update notification: reports changed Apple products between repo_sync runs

Checks the current list of updates versus the previous list of updates and
reports on the changes. Run this script after your repo_sync run to see the
changes between syncs. You can then hand this report off in email if you wish.

"""
First attempt at bringing security into play with the .pem files.
Only the security tool is used, no additional tools (openssl, etc.).

This code does the following:
 - Creates the specified keychain if it doesn't exist
 - Unlocks it with the specified password
 - Configures it to not lock
 - Adds it to the keychain search paths if it's not present already (necessary for 10.9)
 - Import the client.pem cert / identity

The reason that importing the CA cert that was created via the tutorial for setting up a HTTPS munki server failed was the certificates, not the import method.

Once I corrected the certificates, the following workflow worked:

# Create the keychain at ~/Library/Keychains/ (or specify a full path instead of a relative filename)

security create-keychain -p munki munki.keychain

# Unlock it
