Build 8916

This version is available to download from XCreds Version History.

XCreds supercharges your Mac login window. Use your Azure, Google Cloud, Okta or any OpenID Connect password to log in to your Mac. XCreds verifies the password with your identity provider and saves the tokens to the user keychain for validation that the cloud password is in sync with the local password. Perfect.

New Preference Keys

skipUserSetupBuddy: When set to true and a new user home is created, the .skipbuddy file will be created at the top of the home folder to skip user setup screens.

primaryGroupID: Primary Group ID when creating a new user. Default value 20.

All Changes

  • Added new pref key skipUserSetupBuddy to skip user setup buddy
  • Added new pref key for primaryGroupID
  • Fixed UTF-8 password encoding for keychain umlauts to fix passwords with issues with higher order UTF-8
