  • Deploy Visual Studio 2010 vai SCCM (silently)

    I wanted to have Visual Studio 2010 on my machine. My motto is that if I have to install it, I should package it up in SCCM, so when I re-image, I can just press a button. Here were my steps. Nothing ground breaking in this post, but I wanted to document it for my…

  • My offline Exchange 2010 install script

    As I mentioned in my previos two posts, I am creating an offline replica of our Windows environment in order to test migrating from Exchange 2003 to Exchange 2010.  Now that I had a replica of our Exchange 2003 server running, I wanted to add a new Exchange 2010 box.

  • SCCM afterbackup.bat

    Our current SCCM backup is targeted to DFS share pointed to our backup server. We dump files to this share and the local files are backed up to tape (really to disk then replicated to tape.) I never sat down and figured out how to get multiple backups rotating in SCCM until I saw this…

  • Powershell script to find and run advertisements that are set to run when NoUserLoggedOn

    I have been thinking about how to launch a SCCM package/program before logon. If the user logs on before SCCM executes (like right after a reboot), the NoUserLoggedOn requirement will not be met. GPO software deployment handles this by not allowing the user to log in until the software is installed. What happens if you…

  • WMI query to find if the SCCM client is running a program

    Using PowerShell, this will tell you if the SCCM client is running a program and its state:

  • My CEWP JQuery code to play flash files in a Modal

    I have Flash files in a Document Library. I wanted to have users click the flash files (swf) and have them open up in a hidden div, rather than opening in a different window. I added the code below to a CEWP:
