MunkiReport Setup

With the release of MunkiReport 2.8.2 a location module has been added. pinpoint is the backend that provides that module with data. By default no changes are needed for pinpoint to work with MunkiReport however if you wish to make changes using the built in Preferences that is supported.

Note: Do not change the CacheDir preference key as that will break reporting.
