Hi Lads and Lasses,

I have been slowly deploying System Center Configuration Manager 2012 R2. What a head spin.

Anyhoo, I am in the process of setting up the automatic deployment of definition updates for Endpoint Protection.

I've been following the instructions here but when I get to actually running an update sync (selecting Auto Deployment Rule and 'run now'), I keep getting the following two errors:

• Failed to download the update from internet. Error = 5 SMS_RULE_ENGINE 30/07/2014 1:10:58 PM 5180 (0x143C)
• Failed to download ContentID xxxxxxx for UpdateID 16795285. Error code = 5 SMS_RULE_ENGINE 30/07/2014 1:10:58 PM 5180 (0x143C)

I've checked the permissions for the proxy server and adjusted the permissions for the destination folder/share as most of my research points to this.
I haven't been able to find anything definitive regarding the error codes listed above.

Is it an issue if the SMS_* accounts are running as Local System or NT Authority\System?

Thanks

I jumped in. Cisco should be furious. He's lucky they don't have an active rep.

Can Cisco revoke certifications?
It makes sense though. You may have passed the exams but failed to grasp real world concepts and implications.

To that end, he said Microsoft will add "a variety of richer test types that make it harder for people to memorise answers. We're also adding richer questioning types. In test for SQL certifications we ask you to actually create an SQL query.”
The requirement to actually wield SQL has been included to make certifications reflect more real-world effort, instead of just theory.

WHAT!? I need to know how to use something (real world context) to get qualified? Say it isn't so!
</sarcasm>

Sounds like they won't be handing out MS SQL certifications at public toilets anymore. Yay for them.

I've considered this before but never bought them.

Please post for your thoughts after a few days use.

@Joyfano Hmmmm, I was getting a lot of gateway timeouts around the time I was uploading it. Better luck next time.

You're coming to Australia?

Oh dear

I heard they dropped it and are developing an android version (i.e. not just cell phones).

I'm not sure that would be worth it. Other than photos, and assuming that your infected Android can't translate to an infected office, is there anything on your Android (IOS) device that's so important that you'd pay a ransom for because it's not backed up some place else?

For example, most Android users sync their contacts/calendars with their gmail account. IOS users with iCloud. So beyond photos, do you carry important data that's not on... say the corporate network through something like dropbox (or a more secure version), etc?

Identity Theft.
Don't forget that smartphones are too smart for most of their users, so they leave their data virtually unprotected.
