I have the exact same problem, the computername that I input during the early stage of the task sequence never gets applied to the computer. After I created an mdt boot image I also get prompted for the computername before selecting the task sequence to run but it never gets applied, the computer is always named minint.... Why is it that the computer is never renamed according to the name I input?

I know that the reason that this is failing is because the client can not discover the management point. We don´t use wins in my environment and we don´t intend to, the ad has been extended for sccm and I´ve also published the management point through DNS. Is WINS absolutely necessary to complete the build and capture process with a computer in a workgroup? My commandline string for the Client install is the following: CCMSETUP.EXE /noservice /mp:mgmsccm SMSSITECODE=TS0 FSP=mgmsccm DNSSUFFIX=domainname.is Does anyone see a problem with this?

I am trying to capture a machine that is connected to the domain subnet, I´ve tried both adding the machine to a workgroup and joining a domain with the same results. I do get a valid IP address that is within the boundaries that is set in sccm. This is getting really frustrating as I think I´ve tried every possible solution that I´ve found on this forum and others as well.

I am trying to build a reference machine with the build and capture task sequence in sccm sp2. I keep running into the same error and I´ve tried building the os quite a few times, the os is installed but the task sequence doesn´t finish and always hangs during the same step which is preparing configmgr. I´ve tried this on both a vmware virtual machine and on hp dc 7800. I would appreciate any help that I can get. I´ve included the smts log with the errors I receive. I have already tried including network drivers for both machines and that changed nothing. This is the first error I receive: Timed out waiting for ccmexec service to be fully operational TSManager 26.01.2011 15:14:21 1928 (0x0788) thanks in advance, Orn smsts.log
