New to SCCM 2012

Recommended Posts

We are working on deploying SCCM2012 on our network and have provisioned a VM and gone through the great guide here on Windows-noob. We are having problems getting clients to communicate with the site. All of our PC's are workgroup machines. Network discovery does not find any workstations. After manually installing the client on a workstation - communication with the site is not established and the client does not populate the site particulars. If we join the machine to the domain and install the client manually then communication does occur and the client is seen as active.

 

Not sure how to determine if this is an account rights issue or nw infrastructure misconfiguration or?

workgroup computers are dealt with very differently and have to be manually approved (for example)

to see how to install the client on workgroup computers take a look at this post

OK setting up the lmhost and host files got workgroup clients communicating on client install - thank you.
