AutoCasperNBI issue with Casper Imaging 9.73: problem connecting to JSS

After I Netboot the client system for Casper Imaging with the bless command, the system netboots successfully then says:

Connection error while connecting to https://swimbot.lan (Result: 0)
Check your network connection and try again [ OK ]

It then offers me a connection dialog box. If I just enter https://swimbot.lan I get the same error. I was able to successfully ping the JSS and connect to it with Safari on the NetBoot client. Finally, I tried the FQDN, in my case, https://swimbot.lan:8443/ and amazingly, it worked. Perhaps I didn't put the FQDN into AutoCasperNBI, I'm not certain now. Looking at root's Library/Preferences/com.jamfsoftware.jss.plist, I left out the port number, merely specifying https://swimbot.lan as the URL of the JSS. I guess I have to put in the whole thing. Oh well, live and learn. Thought I would share this in case others have the same issue.

@endor-moon thanks for sharing!

Out of interest, what did AutoCasperNBI's GUI say when entering the JSS URL?
