Dear all, Currently we are able to boot devices from PXE with a password protection. We want to give our IT technical guys, the ability to boot computers with their accounts instead of the SCCM admin password. Any ideas?

Hi, There is no builtin feature for this in CM2012, so you would have to write your own solution for it.. Here is an example of password protection but not using and AD account. http://www.windows-noob.com/forums/index.php?/topic/2336-password-protect-a-task-sequence/ regards, Jrgen-- My System Center blog ccmexec.com -- Twitter @ccmexec

As a workaround you could map a network drive as your first step in the task sequence. Map it through a script asking for username and password.(ad account) When the mapping fails (because user has no rights on that share or password is wrong) the TS stops and no deployment can be done. Tou can either test a variable if the step fails (continue on error and check for _SMSTSLastActionSucceeded) and then jump straight to error control at the end of the TS or simply (do NOT continue on error) let the whole TS fail. jeroen
