History of OSX setting (No. 37)

Sequoia update(OSX 15.2)†

After the OS upgrade(15.1->15.2)

1. /usr/local/mac_bin2 was gone. (/usr/local became empty)
2. run software update for commandlinetools
3. Rossetta2 install
  softwareupdate --install-rosetta<RET>

Maybe we should move /usr/local/* to somewhere before the OS upgrade.

↑

Sonoma setting(OSX 14.3)†

Make "test" user as admin.
Logout from your account and login as test.
Change the UID for your account.
Remove your account(including HOME directory). Then create your account again(confirm the UID is kept).
Change your shell if you want. 
Now you can logout from "test" account and login to your account. (You can remove "test" account)

Xcode install
Commandlinetools install (>xcode-select --install)
Make SIP disable
Homebrew install
brew install -cask emacs
ROSETTA2 install (for arm64): >sudo softwareupdate --install-rosetta 
NFS mount from Finder>Connecting to servers
Make link to /usr4,/usr1 onto the side panel of finder windows.

Add two lines into synthetic.conf to have /usr4 and /usr1
sudo emacs /etc/synthetic.conf
  usr4 Volumes/usr4
  usr1 Volumes/usr1
Then, reboot

↑

Big Sur setting(OSX 11.4)†

↑

Disable SIP†

reboot and enter the recovery mode
>csrutil disable <RET>
Then reboot
You can confirm the change by "csutil status"

↑

NFS mount†

UID setting through System Setting(User)

Make an administrator account. (You can use root or other administrator account)
Log out from the target user account.
Change the UID and change the owner of the user folder.
 >sudo chown -R 123123 /Users/#### <RET>

mkdir ~/usr4 <RET>
mount is:/export/usr4 ~/usr4 <RET>
Set the login items on the User setting for the NFS mount <RET>

Then after the next login, you'll find the mounted volume as /Volumes/usr4

↑

Permission for the downloaded application†

sudo spctl --master-disable

↑

Catalina setting(OSX 10.15)†

Xcode installation
XQuartz installation(XQuartz-2.7.11.dmg)

 uxterm -rv -aw -sb -sl 5000 -geometry 80x66 -cr gold -bc -ms orange -bd yellow

Make the root user available.(setting>User/group)
Disable the rootless protection

reboot+(Command+R)->terminal
csrutil status<RET>
csrutil disable<RET>
reboot

Set the UID appropriately

↑

Sierra setting(OSX 10.12)†

Xcode installation
XQuartz installation
homebrew installation

NFS auto mount

mkdir /usr4
then follow the instruction written for 10.8
Maybe reboot is necessary

perl link (if /usr/local/bin doesn't exist, then make it with "mkdir -p /usr/local/bin")

sudo ln -s /usr/bin/perl /usr/local/bin/perl

optional installation :

brew install octave ffmpeg

'octave' installation includes 'gnu-sed' and 'gnuplot'
'gdl' installation needs "fink" or "macports". The one in homebrew is different.

↑

El Capitan setting(OSX 10.11)†

Xcode installation
XQuartz installation
sudo mkdir /usr/local/bin
sudo ln -s /usr/bin/perl /usr/local/bin/perl

NFS auto mount

mkdir /usr4
then follow the instruction written for 10.8
Maybe reboot is necessary

!!!Under editing!!!

Yosemite setting(OSX 10.10)†

Xcode install(6.1.1)
Command line tool install (commandlinetoolsosx10.10forxcode6.1.1.dmg)
*Graphicstools install(graphicstools_for_xcode_6.1.dmg)
XQuartz install(XQuartz-2.7.7.dmg)
Java install (jre-8u25-macosx-x64.dmg)

fink install sed
*fink install gdl ffmpeg gnuplot
*fink install octave (trouble! java dependency)

(*) indicates optional

↑

Merverics setting(OSX 10.9)†

Xcode install

NFS auto mount
mkdir /usr4
then follow the instruction written for 10.8
Maybe reboot is necessary...to be confirmed later

java install

'fink' isn't needed to be installed.
To use 'peak', some libraries are needed. Just copy the default library folder.
>sudo cp -r /usr4/public/sw_def /sw<RET>
Other developed codes should work without fink(sw).
stimulate_lion should also work.

It seems that 'fink' is working fine(Mar.11,2014)
bootstrap installation is required(Xcode command line tools also needed).

↑

Mountain Lion setting(OSX 10.8)†

X11 needs to be installed from XQuartz.
Ver.2.7.2>>2.7.3(12.Sep.2012)

fink selfupdate-rsync<RET>
fink index<RET>

fink install openmotif4<RET>
fink install mesa-libglw-openmotif4<RET>
fink install libjpeg<RET>

How to change UID(for NFS mount)†

If you transfer your user account from your old mac, this procedure isn't necessary.

For Leopard(10.5) or later
 System Preference>Account
 Cmd-key + click on User name>
 You may still need to change the owner of your files/folders manually.(chown)

Following is the old way..
1.Make root user available
2.Logout from the user account
3.Login with root
4.Change UID with NetInfoManager
5.Change file owner setting
 chown -Rh <UID> /Users/<username>
6.Logout from root

Perl path setting
sudo mkdir -p /usr/local/bin<RET>
sudo ln -s /usr/bin/perl /usr/local/bin/<RET>

↑

SSH access setting†

>>ssh-keygen -t rsa<Return>
You need to set your "passphrase" for the ssh access. Including space is highly recommended for the passphrase(Like, "This is a pen").
Then you'll have "id_rsa" and "id_rsa.pub".
Paste the content of the local ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub file into the file ~/.ssh/authorized_keys on the remote host.
e.g.)
 cat ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub >> /usr4/<your account>/.ssh/authorized_keys <RET>
 (When you have nfs mount of /usr4 on your mac and your home directory of the remote is /usr4/<your account>)

SSH client's default setting
Edit /etc/ssh_config
Put the following 3 lines at the end.
 ForwardX11 yes
 ForwardX11Trusted yes
 ServerAliveInterval 30

Change your passphrase
 ssh-keygen -p [-P  OLD_passphrase ] [-N NEW_passphrase  ] <RET>

File server volume mounting†

You need to register your fixed IP address to our servers.
For snow leopard or later, "Disk Utility" can make automatic mounting.

↑

How to put your mounted volume in the side bar menu of file browser†

Assume you have /usr4 mounted as /usr4

1.Open terminal and cd / <RET>
2.$>open ./ <RET>
3.Click the volume folder and hit "Apple"+'t' keys
