For you guys information, i want to push into a pc unit in WORKGROUP. But at detail domain, I can't find WORKGROUP.

Please kindly advice me

thank you and best regards,

the line you put in red, suggests that the given domain is not corresponding with the domain the server runs on.

DId you make a typing mistake in the domain name inside SBC somewhere?

I have the same problem.

There is no domain on my network, so I cannot select domain in drop-down menu when creating a Deployment Job.

I have about 20 PCs that need to be managed and don't want to spend money on a not-needed domain controller.

And PLEASE I really would not like anybody to tell (again) that workgroup setup is bad and domain is good. If I wanted such an opinion I would go to the Microsoft forums.

All I want is something to replace ADNM and Avast 4.8, and ABP seems to be just that: they say it is for SMALL networks and yet it requires domain, while ADNM is for BIG networks and works just fine in my small workgroup...

you can make an e-mail deployment

is this error occurring too with the installer run manually?

I had a similar problem.  I push installed to 14 WinXPSp3 and 12 Win7 machines.  Win7 went easy but every one of the XP machines BSOD'ed on restart.  Had to do F8 and boot to last known good backup.  E-mail install went smoothly.

Having seen this issue many times, I do not recommend the push install to XP ever!   Every one seems to have this issue with XP
