Install a SCCM client within an image/template.


Today I wanted to create an fresh image for Windows 2008 x86 deployment.
We work with Microsoft’s SCCM to install Windows updates on server systems.
I was looking for a way to embed the SCCM client within the base image.
Microsoft has some information available on the subject right here: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb694095.aspx
There is not alot of information available on step 3 of this documentation. To complete this step you need the command line tool called “ccmdelcert.exe” which is available in the Systems Management Server 2003 Toolkit 2 (SCCM 2007’s precursor), you can download the toolkit here:

Here’s a short result of the command-line tool:
