re: ConfigMgr 2007: How to manually kick off a client provisioning task

Same here. I don't think that particular wbemtest is necessarily valid for Win7.

But the 'sendsched' and so forth works fine, as far as updating the necessary bells + whistles.

Still cannot get anything to provision though - some 'missing link' somewhere, regarding at least touching the machines once to set a 'mebx' password, since SCCM will NOT allow 'User admin with password admin.' This part is very 'vague' in most of the blogs - they seem to lead us to believe that SCCM will 'magically provision' the computers, without ever touching them, but I cannot get this to happen. Add OOB point and all the necessary things (certs, etc.), but no luck.

Any help appreciated (mine show up as 'Not supported' [which is a false status - they are just not yet 'activated' basically; AND the rest show up as 'Detected' but never get past that part. Never truly provisioned. I have bought the provisioning cert; added that and the Web cert into sccm, but no luck.

Hi,

I'm just wondering if this is valid with the R2 client (4.00.6487.2000) on Windows 7? All I seem to be getting from following the first set of instructions relating to wbemtest is an error as per the following:

Number: 0x80041002

Facility: WMI

Description: Not found

Cheers,
