In order to solve the situation, you have to make sure that your macOS device has a HostName set/configured since a macOS HostName can only be changed by the system administrator and CANNOT be changed by network issues or network-related services. If the Local HostName is manually set, it will ignore the Computer's Name. Local HostNames aren’t case sensitive, so support-macos.local is the same as Support-macOS.local). If the Local HostName is not manually configured, the OS will use the Computer Name to generate a Local HostName (for example, if your Computer’s Name is Support macOS, your Local HostName will be Support-macOS.local. When the HostName is not set, running the hostname -s command line will display the Local HostName (or Local Network Name).

If one of the four details above changes, the HEIMDAL Dashboard will list the endpoint/device as a new entry, thus creating a duplicate entry (the older entry remaining with a Last Seen timestamp in the past).

Hostname (hostname is picked up by the HEIMDAL Agent when parsing the result of hostname -s command line).

In order to identify and list an endpoint/device in the HEIMDAL Dashboard, the HEIMDAL Agent collects the following details: This issue happens because of the way a mac Operating System manages and prioritizes the Computer Name, the Local HostName, and the HostName details when being requested by the HEIMDAL Agent and displayed by the HEIMDAL Dashboard.
