This PDQ Deploy you guys have been mentioning, does it require an agent on the other Windows clients ?
or it just relies on Active Directory to work.No agent required. You can deploy based on AD, computer name, or IP address. AD is not required as long as you have local admin credentials.

Does PowerShell require some sort of remote access to be enabled?
Are the needed ports open by default to allow the use of PDQ Deploy in a non AD environment?

Yes, but it is enabled by default. Just don't turn it off.

Could be easily done as part of an image, logon batch.

Yes, but it is enabled by default. Just don't turn it off.
And is the firewall ports open by default too? I'm guessing not.. but I'm willing to open those for this purpose..

Why would they enable it and not have the firewall ready to work?

Why have a firewall if you're opening a thousand ports anyway

PS doesn't need them. That's for other tools, like PDQDeploy.

Only one, though, and it is one that is set up by default.
