Patslayer Posted April 9, 2009 Report post Posted April 9, 2009 Hi All, First of all, thanks for this impressive guide ! I followed it and have been able to reach this section 3 almost without any issue :-) I have one server for ADDS, and one other for SQL, WSUS, IIS and SCCM. My problem comes when I try to configure the discovery method by adding the local domain in the New Active Directory Container. I get the following error msg when I press the OK button : ConfigMgr cannot connect to the Active Directory container you specified. Container: LDAP://DC=sccm,DC=logitech,DC=com The container either does not exist or could not be contacted. I strongly suspect there is a access right problem in AD, but I do not know where... Any idea ? Thanks and best regards, Patrick Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
anyweb Posted April 9, 2009 Report post Posted April 9, 2009 welcome what type of domain user are you configuring SCCM with ? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patslayer Posted April 9, 2009 Report post Posted April 9, 2009 Hi, I've added the SMSadmin and SMSread as per the instructions. I've installed all roles on the SCCM server with the local admin users. Is this what you asked ? :-D Thanks, Patrick Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
anyweb Posted April 9, 2009 Report post Posted April 9, 2009 hmm, ok then something is wrong, did you extend the AD schema for SCCM ? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wmmayms Posted April 9, 2009 Report post Posted April 9, 2009 since sccm server is a member of the domain it has read access to all object in the domain unless you have spesified a deny permission somewhere. Firstly are you able to ping your domain from the sccm server? ping sccm.logitech.com ? If this works i would proberbly reboot my sccm server and make sure i was able to login with a domain account. If not rejoin the domain. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patslayer Posted April 9, 2009 Report post Posted April 9, 2009 Yes, I : - have extended the schema - can ping sccm.logitech.com - can login with a domain user - have rebooted the servers :-D This is very strange.....maybe I have to install everything in 1 server for testing..

wmmayms Posted April 9, 2009 Report post Posted April 9, 2009 What happens if you choose a custom LDAP and choose browse? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patslayer Posted April 9, 2009 Report post Posted April 9, 2009 Same issue... Patrick Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wmmayms Posted April 9, 2009 Report post Posted April 9, 2009 are the server located on the same subnet? are there any firewalls activated hardware or software? Is the primary DNS on the sccm server pointing on your domaincontroller? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patslayer Posted April 14, 2009 Report post Posted April 14, 2009 Hi, I've let the servers and the client PC on during the Easter break...and today the client PC appears in SCCM ! I still have the AD container issue....but I will go on with my testing. Thanks for your help. Patrick Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
