    It is always set to the previous user’s name. IE: John Smith’s Mac Mini rather than the new user Matt Green’s Mac Mini. Its really, really strange. And its ONLY the computer name that changes. Every other value sticks so login screen and remote desktop name are always set to the old value.

    I also should add that this happened after removing the computer from one user, importing another user using migration assistant, and then wiping out the old user.

    I have used all those commands to set them all to the exact same value but it doesn’t survive a restart.

    There are no logon scripts of any kind or any strange utilities that would be setting it back to that value. I’m completely at a loss here and am about to wipe the entire computer. 👿
