Look in event viewer under system and you should have a dns client event with "proper" details if it failed Steve

While they look at their end, what do you get if you run ipconfig /registerdns Steve

If you go to the nic in control panel, and access it's properties, ipv4, advanced etc etc you'll find the DNS tab Right near the bottom should be an option to register this connections addresses in DNS which should make it re-register in the zone if it drops it's settings, but if you're using static etc it might not be on Steve

If they do hold it it could be something silly like you've added a static IP on the server, and they've got it set for non-static records so it wiped it after a while if it didn't get updated by the NIC etc. They should be able re-add a record in for it and set it static based, or if you check on your nic settings is it set to update dns etc? Steve

Have you ever done manual deletes on the server? As that's basically a 404 error. If you run wsusutil reset it'll force re-download them all, but will take awhile as effectively it wipes the update cache. The other option is if you have the clients set to the wrong port numbers (depending on HTTP/S settings) in your GPO What's the clients report in the update logs? Steve

You can add the line to make it join unsecured still if you want using the UnsecureJoin setting in the unattendjoin/id bit Steve

Well if you don't know what firewall it is, I'm guessing you don't have login details for it either? (Under the assumption most will have huge banners when logged in telling you what it is ) If so bit stuck really. Steve

What firewall is it? Going to be totally different depending Steve

We haven't bothered in awhile as the drivers aren't needed if you let them pull them down, but if you download the "full offline" installer, run it as a normal installer it extracts all the msi's to %temp% and then you just import those msi's into SCCM individually. Then just pick which bits you want: AppleApplicationSupport64.msi AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi Bonjour64.msi quicktime.msi itunes64.msi etc Steve

That's fine as it's finding the 67 string in the 67XX ones In regards to the svchost you can add the commandline column to confirm: As long as that's showing -wdsserver and you are connecting fine locally, that should be fine on the server setup (tftp wise). Firewall wise do you have it on/firewall rules in place etc? Steve

netstat -abno | findstr :67 netstat -abno | findstr :69 Would shorten it down to those 2 you want probably. Once it lists them, on the right should be the PID, and check that in task-manager for the process (with command line arguements turned on) and make sure it is -wdsserver it's running against Steve

Set the default app to be outlook via GPO? Steve

Then the tftp part of WDS isn't even working before the DHCP is taken into account. You sorted things like firewall on the server? (And that was a client on the same VLAN right?) Run the same command but on the server using "localhost" instead of "server" and see what it does. If you run netstat -abn what's it show as listening on? Steve

Remove the "Remove Run menu from Start Menu" and try it Steve

Is that top section (S is commented out as was for testing SIMs but can just delete that line if you don't want it. And the This PC link is a shortcut pointed to: C:\Windows\explorer.exe shell:::{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D} Steve

There's really not much need for classic shell etc anymore, you can remove the tiles by XML if you want the "old style menu" without tiles etc, and the rest can be managed by redirection as normal. (Yes subfolder is the one annoyance but you can just use another folder if really needed, bearing in mind most people type search ) An example of ours: Steve

What other policies are applied? Mapping drives shouldn't affect anything like that as you should still have C:\ etc showing even if the maps failed. Steve

Not sure if you got the option on yours but ours wake themselves when someone walks in front so it's already powering on when someone gets to it Steve

On a random client on the same vlan, install a tftp client (there's one in program/features if you cba downloading one) and run: tftp -1 "server" GET \boot\x64\wdsnbp.com and see what it returns Steve

What's in your xml? 1803 ADK changed and depreciated a few bits so you might need to recreate the file Steve

Unless they've changed it edit is organisation wide only, it's only viewable/appointment style publically Steve

It puts it on Azure if that helps in regards to cloud/location etc Steve

While you probably could do it, it'd probably be easier to just save the first 6 and last 7 as a movie (from within PPT) and then insert them into slide 1 and 16 effectively. So it's looping movie, until you click then click through 15 and back to 2nd movie etc Steve

If you run this version (As start up I mean), and then check in event logs once you log in under Application logs what's it show: Option Explicit ' Installing multiple Fonts in Windows 7 Dim objShell, objFSO, wshShell Dim strFontSourcePath, objFolder, objFont, objNameSpace, objFile Set objShell = CreateObject("Shell.Application") Set wshShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell") Set objFSO = createobject("Scripting.Filesystemobject") wshshell.LogEvent 4, "Installing Fonts" strFontSourcePath = "\\server\shared$\IT Support\Fonts" If objFSO.FolderExists(strFontSourcePath) Then wshshell.LogEvent 4, "Folder Found" Set objNameSpace = objShell.Namespace(strFontSourcePath) Set objFolder = objFSO.getFolder(strFontSourcePath) For Each objFile In objFolder.files If LCase(right(objFile,4)) = ".ttf" OR LCase(right(objFile,4)) = ".otf" Then If objFSO.FileExists("C:\Windows\Fonts\" & objFile.Name) Then wshshell.LogEvent 4, "Font already installed: " & objFile.Name Else Set objFont = objNameSpace.ParseName(objFile.Name) objFont.InvokeVerb("Install") wshshell.LogEvent 4, "Installed Font: " & objFile.Name Set objFont = Nothing End If End If Next Else wshshell.LogEvent 4, "Folder Not Found" End If if err.number <> 0 then wshshell.LogEvent 4, err.source & " - " & err.description end if Steve

How long is a piece of string? But in all seriousness, could be a million and one things. The obvious few to check would be do your computer/system accounts have access to said share? (aka not a logged in user etc). Does it work if you run it as a local admin while logged in ok? Just not as startup? Steve
