Hoq do you base a collection on Group Membership?

[aburrow]

I'm probably having a mental block here.

I need to deploy an application to a number of users based on Active Directory Group Membership. In particular I need to deploy too users who are members of 2 specific groups and no others. Does anyone know how I can do this???

Thanks

This can be done...

Have you enabled "User Discovery" and "User Group Discovery" ? If not, do so now.
This will result in SMS showing you allUsers and User Groups to which you then can distribute SW.
It's as simple as that !

Hope this helps you,
Chris

Chris,

Yes I've enabled both "User" and "User Group" Discovery and have successfully deployed to users of 1 group, but when I try to add a second group to narrow down the deployment I keep getting users who shouldn't be getting the package. It seems to be including users that a members of either group not members who are in both groups.

OK, there exists a tool by MS called "smsadsync" which might help you out of this.
See my posting concerning this here:
