Does the NAC (network access account) need domain admin for OSD?

[peanican]

I've read everywhere that your network access account should only be a domain user, which mine was (smsread). Package deployment and everything works great. However when I deploy OS's it errors out saying “This task sequence cannot be run because the program files for <your package here> are inaccessible on the distribution point.” Unless I change my NAC user to smsadmin who is a domain admin. Can someone enlighten me on what the best practice is and if there is a work around to not use the domain sms account? Thanks.

It's probably not using your NAA during Software Deployment either. By default it first uses the computername$ for that. I would check the NTFS and share rights on the DP.

you could try setting the permissions like so
