We have implemented BDD 2007 & OSD here at work and have been using it for a while now. One area that we are having difficulties in configuring or getting it to work is adding users to the local administrator group through the Administrators TAB of a Role. We have been using the BDD Roles to deliver many configuration items as the computer name, which domain to join, domain admin & domain admin Password, SMS Packages, etc… properties and all of these work except adding a user to the local Administrator group. When I review the BDD.LOG file after the machine has been deployed, it does shows that the ZTIGATHER & ZTIDISKPART did query for this information and assigned the values to appropriate properties such as Administrator1, Administrator2, etc… However, I don’t see anything in BDD.LOG that shows that these values are actually being applied. I am not sure if BDD logs anything in regards to when it added these accounts to the local administrator group. We have also verified that the Customsettings.ini is configured properly, as it does include entries for CAdmins as well as RAdmins.
We have been doing a lot of research and have read the BDD docs on TechNet as well, but just can’t seem to figure out what we are missing. What exactly needs to be configured or needed (for example an administrative account) in order for BDD to add users (that are defined in the Administrator TAB of a role) to the Local Administrator Group? And which ZTI phase or the script takes care of doing that? Thank you in advance for your help! Manoj
