lol internet. posted:SCCM2012 question here. I got a pretty basic SCCM 2012 (non r2) setup. 1 Server, with all roles. I can answer #2, you only need to install CU3. It includes all the updates of CU1 and CU2. This is also true of CU for SQL and Exchange.

It can track installations but not licensing per say. Through SCCM we found out a poo poo ton of people connected their email to phones and since we pay per device CALs and not per user CALs we're on the hook for about another 150 CALs or so.

lol internet. posted:Wait. 150 Cals for SCCM? or CALS for exchange? Not following you on this. Exchange CALs. It's way cheaper for us to buy 150 more device CALs than to switch all of our CALs to user CALs.

We were told to install a KMS server and use that. As long as the OEM desktops have keys on it, it's fine to have them all activate with KMS even if you don't own volume licensing.

Yes, but we don't have software licensing for KMS but Microsoft gave us a key right below the MAK.

We use Orion which has been pretty awesome albeit expensive. We use it to monitor all our switches, routers, servers, esx hosts, voip and wan connectivity.

Probably be easier to build a new DC and migrate the roles over and promote/demote.

Why delete from AD? I just delete from SCCM and then I have a vbs file run during the task sequence requesting a computer name. It then auto adds to the domain.

I have a GPO question for y'all. I've been tasked with pushing down our corporate wifi via GPO. I created it, went to computer config -> policies -> windows settings -> security settings -> wireless network (802.11) policies and did my thing. Everything looks good. I link it to our Users OU, remove the Authenticated Users group and applied it to my account, for testing. My test laptop shows via gpresults /H - the new Wireless GPO is Denied. Reason: Empty. The gently caress? The settings are clearly there in the GPMC.

Yeah I just applied it to entire desktop OU and added my test pc in the Security Filtering. What is better when we go live - add the Domain Computers group or apply loopback processing and add Authenticated Users group?

Do you already have SCCM licensing through corporate SA? If so, yes I'd use that. Might be too costly if you need to buy it though. The benefit of SCCM, other than imaging and app deployment, is that it comes with antivirus. And yes, you can use KMS for client activation as long as you have OEM stickers on each machine.

Simpleboo posted:Ok i created a test OU and linked the GP to that OU but I am not seeing a change. I am trying to create a public desktop shortcut by using a GP, however no shortcuts are being created. On your test pc, you can go to a cmd prompt and run gpupdate /force to force the gpo and if it still doesnt work run gpresult >gp.txt to see if there are errors.

Martytoof posted:Maybe I'm loving blind, but where do you disable Validate Server Certificate for 802.1x on a Windows 7 machine? I'm trying to play around with AD-integration for WiFi authentication, but I don't want to buy a server cert for my NPS server until I'm sure this works. You should really do this with a wireless gpo and just add yourself as a user, test that way. As hihifellow said, you can set this in the gpo itself.
