[Casper] self deleting startupitems

[Ernst, Craig S.]

I have a few things that do this at startup without issue. I also utilize one of the features of the JAMF binary to make sure the network is up and the JSS is available before attempting the command. I had some Recon issues so I made a startup item recon that deletes itself after it's run.

Not sure if the list will pass the DMG, but if it doesn't let me know.

Why not use a "once per computer" or "once per user" policy?

 Hi People,



 Im trying to write some startupitems that well delete themselves after they have run, Casper's FirstRun script uses the following command



 /bin/rm -rf 'path to folder'



 i have tried this and it doesnt delete itself
