Two of our company devices somehow ended up getting assigned the same random hostname by Windows
We just got a bunch of laptops in at another office- we don't have Intune setup, we just have someone go through OOBE and install NinjaOne (yes this is dumb, we're "working on it").
When I remoted in I noticed none of the scripts had ran- then noticed the username on the Overview was different. Somehow, that machine had ended up with the same exact random hostname as a machine that had already been deployed. They're not even from the same batch. I'm absolutely stunned.
