Intune Hybrid - NDES Cert Issue

As many of you who might be running a SCCM/Intune hybrid scenario for MDM will have learned. There are a few to many certificates in use between NDES, Intune, Wifi Profiles, VPN profiles, and well anything else that may have a cert buried in it. We had an instance were the NDES wasn't handing out the certs for WiFi and VPN profiles. However it was handing out the base communication certificate so phones could sync correctly. This was one of those head scratchers on our park, but if you know where to look it makes sense. Problem is (at least in my opinion) there is a lack of useful documentation and the logging leaves a little to be desired. Therefore, I'm going to give a bit about our journey and hopefully help some of you folks out if you run into something similar. When we were notified of this issue, we started to look at the usual logs, you know CRP.log NDESPlugin.log those types of things. First thing you will notice is that the CRP.log will show the same message ove...

Stuck @ "Waiting for user logon"

This may or may not be something that you would commonly see in your environment. We only see it occasionally but it used to be a pretty common problem. One of my teammates found a technet forum post that addressed this specifically. Pretty interesting read if you are fighting this issue on a particular client. https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/1569e1e2-91bc-435d-8998-beb817d5b453/waiting-for-user-logon?forum=configmanagergeneral Here is the meat and potatoes of the forum discussion. $CITask = get-wmiobject -query "select * from CCM_CITask where TaskState != ' PendingSoftReboot' AND TaskState != 'PendingHardReboot' AND TaskState != 'InProgress'" -namespace root\ccm\CITasks if ($CITask -ne $NULL) { $CITask | remove-wmiobject -Whatif $CITask | remove-wmiobject } ELSE { "CCM_CITasks is empty.

Specialized Application Reporting - Part 1

Welcome to Part 1 of this 3 Part Series. In this portion we will discuss the groundwork that will be used in part 2 and 3 of this series. It is recommended to do all this in a database that is not the CM database. Ideally you would have a database just for this (and on a different server, like say a dedicated reporting point). If you use a different server than the one containing your CM database. You will need to setup a Link Server for the queries to get data from the CM database. Now for the why are we doing this? Well this stemmed from one of my teammates getting tired of running the same queries over and over again for a project. Part 2 of this series will focus on the portion that can be turned into jobs that can run on a schedule. Part 3 will focus on giving a nice and pretty report that can be used for your own desires or to show others who like pretty colors. Setting up your tables: Below is the SQL required to setup the tables and view that will be used in part 2 an...
