just some guy

Thank you for the context.

I honestly expected that to be exactly that, overly alternating (at least from a stand point of majority of users) passwords. I was just curious as the grievance felt very case specific.

That’s certainly a problem I thankfully do not encounter, our Mac users use their O365 logins just like our PC users. If they forget it, they don’t need my help changing or checking it. I haven’t encountered the wifi at login issue, though. That probably piqued my curiosity the most. Our Macs use web auth for login by default (with option to use locally cached password instead) and it requires an internet connection to work. If the mac’s couldn’t/didn’t connect, most wouldn’t be able to login. I could absolutely see this being an issue in a new place where no internet connection has been established before the issue, like a hotel or airport.

They all have a JIC hidden local account too, though. If OPs MDM tools include this option, it could be helpful for the cited scenario(s)

I understand and agree with you but I’m a bit confused, is that in reference to part of my comment?

I’m just curious here, but what are your Mac users doing to lock their accounts so often that this has become such a recurring pain point?

I feel for you, ever since I got approval to move all our mac’s to kandji for management, I have less issues reported from Mac users than windows users.

Terminus is nice and has a lot of platform options. Ive used on an old ipad in the past. If you have several machines, I highly recommend servercat. Works wonderfully on iphone, ipad, and Mac. It also has options to write and store commands to easily send out to any number of devices with a taps/clicks.

I hope this hardware will stand a chance playing no man’s sky. After the freighters were introduced the switch just couldn’t handle it
