Mac Fdesetup Manual

 

hi everyone. been testing High Sierra imaging (not DEP thin deployment), full imaging using the latest 17A405 installer. deploying the same applications as per our 10.12 imaging. imaging converting to APFS, encryption and AD bind works fine to the point i can login with my AD account.
problem is, once the Mac has been encrypted (takes a day to complete on a 2015 MacBook Air with 256GB SSD) and you enable the main admin account and other accounts, mix of AD and local accounts - the encrypted users do NOT show in the FileVault login screen.
as suggested in other discussions - i have tried unbinding the Mac from AD and rebinding it, logging back into the accounts and then restarting - still doesn't work.
have removed the existing user (deleting accounts via System Preferences - Users & Groups) and then recreating the local accounts, login in and encrypting them - same for AD accounts
still doesn't show in the FileVault login window.
