Micro Focus Kanaka for Mac 3.2

December 2021

1.0 Update Since Version 3.1

Kanaka for Mac 3.2 supports macOS 10.15 (Catalina) macOS 11 (Big Sur) and macOS 12 (Monterey). Mac clients running macOS 10.12 and older should use version 3.0.1.

Changes to macOS have eliminated the option of Network Accounts in the Kanaka Plug-in. All logins will now create a local, mobile account. The policy configuration still includes the check box option to create local, mobile accounts, and this option will need to be checked if using the version the 3.2 plug-in. The check box is kept for backward compatibility.

  • macOS 10.15 Catalina

  • macOS 11 Big Sur
