<div class=Section1>
<p class=MsoNormal>Posted this on the Resource Kit newsletter as well.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I was directed by Jamf support to attempt this forum.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif";
color:#999999'><o:p> </o:p></span></b></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Here’s the situation: I’m not able to use an SMB
Distribution Point (DP) which is on a Windows 2003 R2 joined to an Active
Directory 2008 domain; using the Jamf server as a DP [via AFP] works fine.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>For more oddity, I will escape out of the Casper Imaging
tool during Netboot and open the Full Finder. I will then try to connect
via command-k and put in smb://[ip address] or smb://[ip address]/ or smb://[ip
address]/[Share name] and it will not prompt me for a credential and give me an
error indicating “Incorrect password”, if I try to use an AFP share
(afp://[ip address] or afp://[ip address]/ or afp://[ip address]/CasperSuite, I
get “an error occurred -50”. If I boot to a normal OS X
operating system and try any of these, it will prompt me for credentials, I supply
them and it connects. While in the NetInstall/Netboot environment, if I
do a Full Finder and use Terminal, it appears I’m logged in as
root. So why, can’t I seem to use any other DPs other than the one
during the actual imaging process?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>The steps I’ve gone through are as follows:<o:p></o:p></p>

DP, says it’s erasing the hard drive (which actually doesn’t) and

next step.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I have tried several combinations of creating a local and
domain account as the one specified in the DP setting screen (and even one
called root with and without a password), had the NT server joined and put into
a Workgroup, specified the workgroup or domain name.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>It just seems like no part of the NetInstall/Netboot
environment will take a DP other than one which might be running an actual OS X
server.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I even went as far as trying ExtremeZ IP on the NT machine
and got the same error while in Finder in the NetInstall/Netboot environment as
when I tried to command-K to the Apple server.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>What am I missing for setting up DPs which are Windows 2003
servers joined to a 2008 Active Directory domain?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Thanks!<o:p></o:p></p>
