Client Push Account Settings Bug
Yesterday I finally opened up my SCCM server that I have been building to clients. I created a special Active Directory OU to put computers in so that I could control discovery at the beginning of my deployment. Ran AD System Discovery on the OU which pulled the systems into SCCM. I had already configured the “Client Push Installation” settings, and had added a client push installation account.

End request: “workstation_domain_com”, machine name: “workstation”.
In particular note the account name that it tried in the first “Attempting to connect…” line…it’s not valid…basically gibberish. After trying a few things, I remembered an issue I ran into with SMS 2003. In one of the settings…I can’t remember which…maybe the Network Access account…the password field would enable you to enter a password longer than Continue reading
