Looking for a way to get Single-Sign-On working with published remote desktops when using an RDS web front end? You can’t. Seriously. SSO only works with remoteapp. Stop googling for the answer. You are currently( 2008 R2) wasting your time.

Domestic Cleaning in Southampton
Completely unrelated to this blog really, but I thought I’d lend a hand. A friend ha started a cleaning company in Southampton called “Maid2Clean Southampton” that provides general domestic cleaning and ironing duties to people in the Southampton area and Winchester and Romsey areas. These duties include things such as dusting, mopping and hoovering.
Their website is located at www.maid2clean.co.uk/southampton if you are in need of any cleaning 🙂
SCCM Pre-R3 client patch
Here’s my collection to deploy the “power management” pack to clients. This is the MSP file that you get with R3 that clients need to have in order to manage power settings correctly. This collection selection should work, at least it seems to do so anyway!
select SMS_R_SYSTEM.ResourceID, SMS_R_SYSTEM.ResourceType, SMS_R_SYSTEM.Name, SMS_R_SYSTEM.SMSUniqueIdentifier, SMS_R_SYSTEM.ResourceDomainORWorkgroup, SMS_R_SYSTEM.Client from SMS_R_System inner join SMS_G_System_SMS_ADVANCED_CLIENT_STATE on SMS_G_System_SMS_ADVANCED_CLIENT_STATE.ResourceID = SMS_R_System.ResourceId where SMS_R_System.ClientType = 1 and SMS_G_System_SMS_ADVANCED_CLIENT_STATE.Name = “SmsPowerManagement” and SMS_G_System_SMS_ADVANCED_CLIENT_STATE.Version < “4.0.6487.2157”
SCCM SP2 Client Collection
Looking for a way of deploying and updating the SCCM SP2 client to old clients? Well, here is the collection I’ve been using. This will list all the clients that are not running Service Pack 2.
select SMS_R_SYSTEM.ResourceID, SMS_R_SYSTEM.ResourceType, SMS_R_SYSTEM.Name, SMS_R_SYSTEM.SMSUniqueIdentifier, SMS_R_SYSTEM.ResourceDomainORWorkgroup, SMS_R_SYSTEM.Client from SMS_R_System inner join SMS_G_System_SMS_ADVANCED_CLIENT_STATE on SMS_G_System_SMS_ADVANCED_CLIENT_STATE.ResourceID = SMS_R_System.ResourceId where SMS_R_System.ClientType = 1 and SMS_G_System_SMS_ADVANCED_CLIENT_STATE.Name = “CcmFramework” and SMS_G_System_SMS_ADVANCED_CLIENT_STATE.Version < “4.0.6487.2000”
ADSL
I’m still waiting for fibrecity to install their nice 100mb fibre to my house, so until they do I’m stuck with plain old copper. Living in a flat means that the connection speed is quite poor. Should be synced at about 16mb but alas I only get 10. Hopefully the fibre wil be good when it arrives.
In the mean time, to keep an eye on my connection I found this.
