Hi,

I try to implement different properties by Rule in MDT but dont work. I am using the MDT 6.3.8456.100 with the code above. Every time the tasks dont allow domain:

############################

[11]

UserDomain=domain.intranet

MachineObjectOU=OU=THREE,OU=ONE,DC=domain,DC=intranet

JoinDomain=domain.intranet

[22]

UserDomain=domain.intranet

MachineObjectOU=OU=TWOs,OU=ONE,DC=domain,DC=intranet

JoinDomain=domain.intranet

[EXTRA]

Hi,

Based on the context you provided, you seem to be trying to implement different properties by Rule in MDT but they are not working. You are using MDT 6.3.8456.100 with the code above but every time the tasks do not allow domain. Without more information on the specific errors or issues you are experiencing, it is difficult to provide a concrete solution. However, there are a couple of things you can try:

1. Double-check your syntax: Make sure that your syntax is correct and free of errors. One misplaced character or punctuation can cause the rules to fail.
2. Verify MDT version: Ensure that you are using the correct version of MDT since the configuration files vary across different versions of MDT.
3. Check Priority: Make sure that the priority of the rules is correct. In your sample code, [11] and [22] are of equal priority, so MDT will not know which to apply first.
4. Ensure correct Task Sequence ID: Confirm that the Task Sequence ID is correct. The Task Sequence ID in the rules must match the ID of the task sequence you are deploying.
5. Check for conflicts: Verify that there are no conflicting rules that are overriding your desired settings.
6. Check for group policy conflicts: Check if there are any Group Policy Objects (GPOs) that are overriding your settings. The MDT rules engine is designed to be applied after GPOs have been applied, so if there are conflicts between them, the GPOs will take precedence.
7. Refer to Microsoft documentation: If none of the above steps have worked, please refer to the Microsoft Deployment Toolkit resource center to understand how to configure MDT and its rules.
