Hello I need help! My Network manager has gone off-sick and I've only been in this job for the last 4-5 weeks at a secondary school. We have a network with VLE and website all stored on the same network. Recently we upgraded from edu to outlook 365. Has all been working till now. Apparently are SSO went out of date. Have spoken to Microsoft and they have issued us with the replacement .pfx file but have no understanding of IIS and how to update it. I believe I've followed Microsoft's admin guide but it seems to cover new installations not updating existing. This is what I've done: [h=2]Scenario "A" Installation[/h]In this scenario, a student’s Active Directory ID (AD's sAMAccountName attribute value) equals their Windows Live ID. The web portal needs to be configured using the following steps. Import provided security certificate into LocalComputer\Personal store. Follow the procedure in Appendix A - Security Certificate Installation. Copy demo-site files to created web-site root directory (for example, "C:\inetpub\wwwroot\SSOPortal") Create and configure a web site for your SSO Portal in IIS. Follow the procedures in Appendix B - Portal Web Site Configuration (IIS). Now I've noticed our default IIS is different with multiple directories and sub-directories so I applied the certificate to the whole website which seems to have updated hence this information from the certificate: Issues to: (us) Issued by: MSIT Machine Auth CA 2 Valid from 25/06/2013 to 25/06/2015 I'm guessing its the latest one as no others have new date stamps. However when trying to use our email button on our VLE which should take us straight to our email inbox (or after asking for login details) it still says the following: The site cannot be authenticated, the certificate provided cannot be verified. The Certificate & Site ID combination for this SSO application is invalid. I have reset IIS as well. Help!

Originally we were going to just use the xml file and ghost the final image with FOG or Symantec's Ghosting imaging software?

Thanks for your help. I checked our Domain in AD and this information is correct but haven't tried using the ldap structure i.e. ou=,dc=,dc - etc We're looking into MDT right now...

Is it just not possible?

Hello, I'm completely new to being an ICT Technician in school and my Network manager and I are attempting to Migrate to Windows 7 Pro 32bit in summer holidays. Now i'm trying to create a xml file for every model of laptop, and desktop in our school as we have many types which all support Windows 7, however for now I'm just trying to get one freshly installed version of Windows sysprep'ed to then take an image and store it on a network share. However having problems connecting to the school domain with basic settings using a custom xml file and sysprep. The computer does everything else in the unattend.xml file apart from joining the domain. From what I understand it may not join the domain because usually when joining manually it will ask us to restart machines after joining the domain. It does not do this at all. Our network is large and we need to make installation quick and simple with minimal input due to the quantity of machines. So for now i'm using one laptop to reboot with sysprep and a basic xml file with and using only these methods. So first of all heres the xml file, please note I've changed any confidential information and put in fake details in to protect the network: The School ICT false Domain name domain password administrator false Domain name ldap string true true Work 1 password false password false Support Support Administrators domain name Administrators Domain Admins School name ICT false Greenwich Mean Time 32 1400 60 1050 The sysprep command I use is: sysprep /generalize /oobe /reboot /unattend:c:\6715b.xml Hopefully someone can help Thanks.
