+11Hi 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

+5I found some oddities with casper here, and since we use laptops and are not always downloading new policies, I created a launchd item and a script...the launchd item loads on boot and executes the script - the last two thing the script does is to securely delete the launchditem, and then the script itself...reboots if needed.

+21I 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.
