deprecation_notifier - only run when internal server is reachable? about macops

The simplest way to add this would be to have a script (bash/Python) that the LaunchAgent starts and that script tries to contact your management server and runs deprecation_notifier itself if appropriate.

Thanks for the quick reply!
Once deprecation_notifier has been started by the LaunchAgent won't it continue to run (and notify) even if they move off LAN?

Ah, good point, I need more coffee.

In that case changes to deprecation_notifier would be needed to add this. If you feel comfortable doing this, we'd happily accept a pull request. If not, we'll try and get to this when we can but it might be a while.

I'd be starting from scratch so definitely not comfortable. You may get there before me!

Thanks again.
