Distribution point error

Not applicable

After netboot a system to casper imaging, we fill out the info and then
we select one of our distribution server to image a machine from but
then we get an error that "The distribution Point could not be
mounted....... This server was working fine when we built it but when we
sent it to a remote location now we are getting this error. Please
help.... Thanks

Hello

Make sure that your read only and your read/write user credentials are set up properly both on the server housing the share and in the JSS. If it can't mount the share the most common problem I would think would be that it can't authenticate.

I had this issue once before, it was a permissions issue on the CasperShare

You were right on the ball...

Erin from Casper walks us through changing the casperadmin and
Casperinstall password on a distribution point and then JSS. Thanks a
lot...
