thank you ! it requires manual work, when i put together the new scripts i have to manually download the stuff and when i get to the download page after selecting one or more downloads and clicking next, i view the html source and pull the urls from there

what does your appenforce.log tell you ?

fix your multicast issues first as they appear first in the smsts.log, one or more of your packages is enabled for multicast, most likely it's the operating system wim image, did you check that ?

I wouldn't be too concerned about capturing that driver, you can always uninstall it in the deploy image if you believe it's causing an issue, or use hyperv and not have this problem.

well if it's a local user then why are you specificying a domain ? try inputting the server ip there instead

yup but it's just to show you one way that you can set variables in your lab, you can set it on the collection the computer the task sequence itself and instead of hard coding it as I've done in that example you can try making it more dynamic for example: %somedomain%\%someuser% as I do in the CM12 UEFI BitLocker FrontEnd HTA

if you use hyperv then no driver is required, it just works.

the first thing you should do is create your reference image on virtual hardware, not on real machines, that way you keep the image driver agnostic and can save the snapshot to revert to the state it was prior, secondly, some would argue you should make your reference images in MDT 2013, that's up to you, there are advantages to that method but it does mean having two environments to keep in place, but back to your question, yes what you are seeing is normal, and no, i wouldnt recommend you 'reuse' the machine, infact i wouldn't recommend you build a reference image on real hardware at all, use hyperv (or another virtual software) to create virtual machines and customize your deploy task sequences with apply driver package steps to deploy to different hardware

check the properties of your packages/wim image see if multicast is selected on the distribution settings tab ?

have you reviewed this post yet ? http://www.windows-noob.com/forums/index.php?/topic/9357-how-can-you-manage-linux-based-clients-in-system-center-2012-r2-configuration-manager/

Multicast OpenSessionRequest failed (0x80004005) looks like multicast is setup on dp but it's failing, so can you explain who setup multicasting, and are you using it, or not ?

if you add a run powershell script step after the Apply Operating System image step and before the Setup Windows and configmgr step that should work, have you tried that yet ?

have you seen this ? http://myitforum.com/myitforumwp/2012/06/25/offline-domain-join-with-mdt/

do you have a valid ip address when it fails ?

you shouldn't be capturing the image from a real computer but build (and then capture) it from a virtual computer instead, that way you keep it driver agnostic and 'clean' you can then deploy that clean image to any hardware you want using customized Apply Driver package steps which are set to install drivers for that model only, for example as I do here for the Surface Pro 3.

Those of you running Windows 10 build 9926 will be pleased to know that a new build is coming shortly and in preparation for that there are a few updates being made available to prepare your system for that new build. The updates were mentioned yesterday by Gabe Aul via Twitter so if you haven't done so already, check for Windows updates (search for windows update settings in the start menu) and apply these as soon as you can to prepare yourself for the coming new build, the three updates mentioned are listed below: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/3040021 http://support.microsoft.com/kb/3038930 http://support.microsoft.com/kb/3021952 if you get errors like this in Windows Update "There were some problems installing updates, but we'll try again later. If you keep seeing this and want to search the web or contact support for information, this may help - (0x80070057)." then set the following reg keys Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsUpdate\UX] "IsConvergedUpdateStackEnabled"=dword:00000000 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsUpdate\UX\Settings] "UxOption"=dword:00000000 then close Windows Update Settings and try again, it should work as below.. cheers niall

start with the basics, what does your smsts.log file tell you ? and has anyone changed any boundaries recently (or are they based on ad sites ?)

i'd suggest you contact the authors directly and ask them

you can review it yourself here: Enterprise Client Management: Using System Center 2012 R2 and Windows Server 2012 R2 Paperback – January 21, 2015 http://www.amazon.com/Enterprise-Client-Management-System-Windows/dp/9187445050/ref=as_sl_pc_ss_til?tag=buzzmanagement&linkCode=w01&linkId=KEDJNMSA7CDZZN4X&creativeASIN=9187445050 it's not released yet, what it does cover is listed below

no I have not seen this problem before as I don't install an os to computers with more than one disk, did the dell ship from the factory with these disks or did you add one after recieving it ?

as an update, I've edited the original post to show screenshots from the updated Intune portal, including changing the name within the guide to point to windowsintunenoob.com instead of windowsnoob,

do as follows, change your organization name in Default Client settings, once done, update the boot image that is linked in your task sequence to it's distribution points, that should solve it. to identify the boot image, right click on the task sequence and you'll see it listed under advanced.

are you choosing Update Distribution Points, that is how you redistribute...

first things first can you read the disc fine in WinPE ? so no drivers needed in your boot wim ? secondly, if you have just one disc, does it work ok ?

have you tried steps 5,6,7,8,9 here http://www.windows-noob.com/forums/index.php?/topic/8977-how-can-i-remotely-control-workgroup-computers-in-system-center-2012-configuration-manager/
