Cannot Apply Network Settings to MDT - Cannot hit deployment share

Question

I can hit my deployment share from any computer on the network, but cannot hit it from the computer I'm trying to image. I added a step to the Task Sequence "Apply Network Settings," but it seems it is ignoring this and using DHCP somehow. I made sure to update the deployment share.

When I hit F8 to bring up a command prompt I try a "Net Use" command, but it says "System Error 67 has occurred. The network name cannot be found."

I'm able to ping the mdtserver using its hostname, but it cannot map/find the share.

Thanks in advance!!

Answer 1

So it turned out that for whatever reason the wrong host name was in the bootstrap.ini file. Once I renamed it to the correct name it started working.
