Hi All, We are currently using SCCM 2012 and are having problems getting the task sequence to create a local admin account. we used the below as a run command which doesn't work @echo off cls echo Creating Local Account: mccuser pushd %~dp0 echo. net user user PAssword /ADD /FULLNAME:"mccuser" /COMMENT:"Built in Local Admin Account" /ACTIVE:YES /PASSWORDCHG:NO /EXPIRES:NEVER net localgroup "Administrators" user /add wmic useraccount where "name='user'" set PasswordExpires=False popd We also created the below as a batch file and tried that in the task sequence as a application, again this does not work. cd\ mkdir .\User net user User Password /ADD net localgroup administrators %computername%\User /add rmdir .\User Both of the above work when run but not when part of a task sequence. Please can anybody tell us how you can get a command in the task sequence that will create a local admin account. Cheers

Hello, I am fairly new to Config Manager and would like some guidance from the pros. Running into an issue when creating Task Sequences for OSD. When i go to deploy the TS, the last page/tab has an alert "A network access account is required to access content from Windows PE" and there is only one option from the drop down, when there used to be two (see pic). I have a NAA setup and verified, and the deployment of a previous TS did not have this issue (10 minutes prior to creating current "problem" TS). I have deleted the TS, NAA, tried a different NAA and TS, but still have the issue. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Question for all the SCCM 2012 R2 Admins: Basic overview: In an attempt to get a customers patching working correctly, I recently remoted in to find critical warnings at every turn. I was able to resolve the storage issue by expanding the drive size. I was able to resolve the sccmadm access errors by having the customer reset the password for that account ( I do not have that ability as a contractor for them) I had to stop/delete/remove all applications/packages/and process that were "hung" due to the storage/access issues. Here's where things get a little odd: I went to remove the SUP role for reinstallation and within 6ms of doing so, the server started showing the below message in the Event Viewer along with nearly every CM log: Login failed for user 'DOMAIN\SCCM2012$' Reason:Could not find a login matching the name provided. [CLIENT:<local machine>]. After a thorough investigation, the problem was located and it appears as if the NT Authority\System account no longer had access to the CM Site DB. Upon adding the NT Authority\System account back in, the errors stopped and all service started back up. The problem here is now, that the customer is telling me this was caused by removing the SUP role and they are not willing to pay for the time to resolve that particular issue. I have never seen this issue before? Could this account have been removed some time ago and the call to remove the SUP role have initiated the NT Authority\System account for removal then noticed it was no longer there? If I understand correctly, the removal of a system account would need domain admin/DBA permissions which neither I, nor the local system account have. Any thoughts as the why this error presented itself during the uninstallation of the SUP role? This has turned into the customer pointing fingers at me, most likely, due to an issue they created for themselves at some point in time.... Thank you in advance for your time and the sharing of your knowlede.

I have posted a guide on my blog that hopefully will be useful. Here is the link. https://buckingthesystemcenter.wordpress.com/

Just wondering what permissions does these SCCM 2012's service accounts need EXACTLY, for example: ClientInst = Local Administrator on site computers Network Access Account = ?? What permissions on the file server source?! Domain Join = ?? What permissions, where and how to set these? SQL Service account = ?? SCCM Admin = ?? What and where Definitive list would be good... also looking for some kind of guide for SCCM 2012 Delta Group Policy, how to set the user rights assignments right and so on... Thx in advance.

Hello! Befor the New year we intalled SCCM 2012 SP1 and import some preferences. But now we find one very strange problem. When we install OS TS in ccm.log we find a lot of errors that push intalletion accont can't connct to the ...\admin$ share. Add this account manually to the administration group on test computer. Then we go to push account and check password - it was wrong. Ok, we changed it and complite verification. But it doesn't help. We saw similar errors. Ok, we check AD account - it was unblocked. After than we go to the preferences of push account and find, than password is wrong. So now we change password, test connection and press 'ok' and nothing has been changed We try reboot server and make new AD accont for push account.
