Can the Self Service Client be installed using SCCM instead of a GPO?

We are looking at Adaxes as a way to update user's passwords offline and updating the computer's cached password.

Currently, a majority of our computers are off the network and not connected by VPN. With users working from home, using a GPO isn't the best way to deploy the client. We do have SCCM with CMG so we are able to deploy software via the Internet.

Is this a viable option? What issues are we not considering?

Hello,

Yes, you can use the following command:

msiexec /quiet /i "<path>AdaxesSelfServiceClient.msi"

where is the directory path where the MSI file is located.

However, to pull the settings from Adaxes service, the computer where the client is installed must be connected to a domain controller. After that, the computer can be disconnected and offline password reset will be available.

I have a member of our Service Desk who can't install the newest version of the client (2023.3).

We've uninstalled the previous version via the "add/Remove Programs" feature in Windows 10, but we still get an error saying that another version of the client is still installed and won't allow us to run the .MSI installer. How can we get around this?

Can we get a report that lists all of the local accounts on the computers in an OU so auditing them would be easier?

It would be great if we could run a report on an OU and get the following information: Computer Name Local Accounts Whether or not the account is an administrator ... this is less important. Thanks in advance. Your support team is great and appreciated.

So Adaxes needs to be installed on all client DCs?

And the service that gets installed connects to Adaxes servers and that's how communication is facilitated?
