Application deployment for System requires network access

[Fed]

Hi all,

 

I'm new to SCCM, only been working with the beast for 3 months full time and, following Windows-noob guides, I've been able to get the infrastructure running pretty fine.

 

Right now, I have to deploy a bunch of msi packages that require both local admin rights to be installed and network access to a UNC path. I know it's not a good way of a msi but that's not in my hands at the moment.

 

My problem is that if I choose to deploy the package for the system, it will fail to access the network share. If I try to install the package as the logged in user, I lack the required admin rights.

 

Is there any way to specify a different user account for a deployment?

 

Right now I'm trying to use psexec in the install program command of the Application deployment Type but I'm still blocking.

 

Anyone here who fought a similar issue?

 

Thanks for your help,

 

Fed

You can use the "run command line" step of a Task sequence to Bypass this Problem. Just make sure that the user has local admin rights on the target machines and read Access to the Network share.

Thank you very much, it's been part of the answer to my issue.

 

In a nutshell, I have to upgrade the previous version of that msi package, even the deinstallation was looking for the network access.

 

I have modified the the new msi to use a local path while compiling it as an exe file, in which I put other modifications required.

The task sequence helped me to remove the old version.

 

again, Thanks a lot
