Targetting User records instead of Computer records in SCCM 2007

[NB2704]

Hey guys,

 

At the moment we are using SCCM 2007 to deploy software etc.. to collections of records based on the computer accounts. All coumuter account records have the client = yes as expected. I have now been asked to deploy to specific users from the All Users collection, however none of these users say they have the client installed so I don't think it is possible? Is there a way you have to link the user record up with the machine record?

 

Cheers,

A user record will never show Client = Yes... The client is installed on the device and not the user... you can target users just like you can target devices. Create a collection, with the specific users, and target your advertisement to it. When the user logs on to a device (with a client) it will get the software.
