I will hit you up this weekend then. Thanks

Hello. On page 15 Item 2 it states that the DC01 should have a ViaMonstra/Users OU. I am not seeing this in my AD Tree on DC01 and I have removed and rehydrated the DC01 Server 3 times now to no avail. I do not get any errors and the Hydration is saying it completes with no issues. Can you assist with correcting this? Thank you

Hi Niall. When you have time to get back to me, can you shoot me a text when you are ready to connect if possible?

Hello and thank you for relying back so quickly. I was not expecting this level of assistance and fast response times. Yes, I installed the MDT 2013 in the order that was instructed in the book. I did this right after running the ADK for 8.1. I would be happy to let you TeamViewer in to my machine and take a look. <removed login details>

Hello. I as well recently brought the book off of Amazon called The Windows-noob OSD Guides for ConfigMgr 2012 R2 by Niall Brady. I learned of the Book after attending the last AZSMUG event at Interface Technical Training in Phoenix AZ where I watched 2 very informative and well done presentations by Mike Terril and Johan Arwidmark and at that time I was told about the books and the use of Hydration kits to create home labs so I can get experience and practice for certification. I went right home and purchased your your Book and a 1TB SSD and have a system ready to go with 32GB of RAM. I am running Windows 10 Enterprise and I continuously run into issues with the scripts and getting the Hydration Kit installs to go smoothly and was hoping I could ask a question about my latest issue. At the following location in the book - Page 415 Step 4 - When I run the "CreateHydrationDeploymentShare.ps1" I get the following red output in my PS window and I am not able to see any deployment shares created in the Deployment Workbench that matches the screenshot in the book on Step 5. New-Item : A parameter cannot be found that matches parameter name 'enable'.
