Anyone know how I can enroll a Mac OS 10.3.9 computer into Casper 8.62? I've tried the Quickadd package, I've tried Recon, nothing seems to work.

Recon gives a Connection Error: "A connection error occurred: jamf binary failed to install."

you will need recon 7.31 in order to bring in a 10.3.9 machine. The problem after that is you will be unable to do anything with it. In order to have a 10.3.9 machine communicate with a casper instance, you need a JSS at 7.31. We are running two JSS's for this very reason. Talk to your rep about your situation and how they can work with the licensing for the two servers.

Try an older version of Recon. If you don't have one your account rep can probably help out with that.

10.3.9 are you serious?

Yes, 10.3.9 on about 100 eMacs. Write your legislators and ask them to increase technology funding to schools. :)
