Add new owner to SafeGuard 7 for Mac

DC_IT_Manager

I have successfully bound a MacBook Pro running Yosemite to our Active Directory Network.  I created a user in AD called "Mac User" and logged into the Mac using this Network ID.  I successfully installed Safeguard and it correctly talks to the SafeGuard Management Server.

So far so good.  This is big progress.

When I reboot, the FileVault pre-boot environment comes up with MacUser as the only user who can log in.

If I add myself  - another user in AD - as the new owner in Safeguard Management and save the DB and sync the macbook and I reboot, the user MacUser is STILL the only user that can login to the Filevault pre-boot environment.  

This is something that works on Windows 7 much more cleanly.  Otherwise, the only way to install Safeguard on a Mac is to make sure you are using the account for the person the machine belongs to.  We're supposed to have more flexibility than that.

Suggestions?

Thanks.
