How to spoof MAC address and hostname automatically at boot on macOSHow to spoof MAC address and hostname automatically at boot on macOS

Summary

Hi all,

My Time Machine backup does not seem to function when spoofing my hostname. The issue is that a .sparsebundle file is created on the Time Machine disk with my current hostname, and backup files seem to be deleted when I reconnect after rebooting. So the oldest backup I have access to is the first backup that was made after rebooting.
