[Casper] New computers not properly entering smart groups

[Tom Welch]

Hi Dustin

Something I've noticed (although I don't think it will happen with the  
computer name) is the requirement to run a recon to gather all the  
computers details. I was having a problem where by smart groups for  
laptops and desktops didn't work as the model field was not populated  
at imaging. I'm guessing your post imaging is done by a "at reboot"  
script. Try adding a recon at the very begining of that script. You  
should be able to do it using the jamf command line tool but off the  
top of my head I can't remember. I'll have a look Monday if that helps.
