Log into OSX via the command line [closed]
What about something like this:
#!bin/shcat >/tmp/Login_Automatically.sh <<-"EOF"if [[ "$(who | grep console)" == "" ]]; then # Runs ONLY if no one is logged inosascript <<EOTset username_ to "username"set password_ to "password"tell application "System Events"(via http://hints.macworld.com/article.php?story=2010021119293586)
Also, can't you disable the authentication all together in the system preferences if you want a way to bypass the login?
Or if you want to kill it read:Kill "loginwindow" process using command line in Mac OS X
The solution was in the comments of this article.
Copy and paste into Command Line/ARD:
osascript -e 'tell application "System Events" to keystroke "usernamegoeshere"'; \osascript -e 'tell application "System Events" to keystroke tab'; \osascript -e 'tell application "System Events" to keystroke "passwordgoeshere"'; \osascript -e 'tell application "System Events" to keystroke return'Thanks to Sam Mirrado for providing the link to the article.
