i 2nd this. I feel like powershell will do the job but you will need to leave enough time to do manually if it goes wrong.

Can I do this in windows 10? Gonna give it a go after break

The Server, I've got WDS On my technician PC I have MDT and a .wim file. So somehow I need to create the boot image for WDS and somehow, i dont know how, that links to the MDT/.wim file? I can do I.T lol. im just slow. Can someone help me to see where my understanding is lacking? Why is MDT needed?

So here is the root cause ( i believe ) We were logging in with the incorrect DC admin account. AD by default inside the "users" folder contains a user called "administrator" (built-in account for adminstrating the computers/domain) this is how I should be logging in. Now when I log in with "administrator" I have full access to what I need. Also, I noticed when I run gpresult /h results.htm that all the user policies are gone. Shrunk from 15 policies to 0. I knew my account was wrong, i just didn't know how. Originally I thought I had to be using a Local User Account which are used in Read-Only Domain Controllers but It turns out a GC Domain Controller is not the same as read-only (i wasted lots of time trying to access local user accounts). Essentially I learnt today that DCs will likely have no local administrator and that AD has a "built-in" administrator which should be used for maximum access/permissions and for the sake of consistency.

They are coming from the DC (itself) as appose to locally. I wanted to login with the local administrator but I couldn't even access UAC . However now I see GPO has the "disable UAC" policy applied. "117 Disable UAC" is applied to the entire domain (Xxx.internal) this is a problem because I want it to apply to everything except this server. Can I exclude the GPO from the server?

Should my proxy settings be restricted within internet options? This is the Domain Controller which handles AD and DHCP mainly. Any ideas why this might happen?

Ha, our server is full up. only 5GB space left so not even space for the image to go on there. Can i centralise this in another way?

30 PCs require imaging... I did own acronis but I lost that disc... Whats the best, free software that we can use? I want to boot the Live OS via network as I only have 1 USB stick and no discs.

Thanks. Rpos was blocked. but anyway I found the proxy GPO, removed it and now Is working. Thanks again!

I've added the domain_user to the local_administrator_group for a client. However I still can't change the proxy settings which are "greyed out", underneath it says "some settings are mnaged by your system administrator"... Not sure what else I can do besides give full local admin rights? I tried using a .reg file to disable/enable proxy but that isn't working.

Once I supervise with a macbook via configurator. Can I still continue to use meraki as I have been?

Hi, We are using roughly 50 ipads, each with about 39 apps that are going to be deployed... Is there a way of installing the apps without requiring me to hit "install"? .... I just had a feeling it might be supervised-related? can I supervise a device w/o configurator (if its possible)?

Is there a way I can boot into safe mode or something? I can get into recovery mode but can't load the desktop, it just gives me options to update the bootloader and a few other things. I still cant log into the computer to check drivers.

So, here is a short (sped up) video of how the issue looks. https://youtu.be/O-NqdHrl7ts I installed Linux Mint (XFCE) from a USB stick onto this miniture laptop. The first time launch was succesfull but every time since then the screen seems to zoom in. I cannot even navigate the rest of the page using the mouse. any ideas as to why this might be happening? Thanks in advance!

Sounds good. I thought it sounded normal to have multiple server for different roles but felt a hesitance to install this server... just in case. thanks for helping!
