    We are having some wierd network issue's SW downloads (via BITS) on specific subnets and I'm trying to troubleshoot.  We are using SCCM 2007 sp1 in Native mode and I can't get BITSADMIN.EXE to access the NOCERT or regular SMSPKGx$ web links.  I've tried to supply credentials via /setCredentials but its not working.  I also used Aaron C.'s CMD file but still the same issue. (http://blogs.technet.com/aaronczechowski/archive/2008/03/08/bitsadmin-script.aspx).    It's probably something simple but has anyone tried to do this?

    Tim, could you provide more information as to the problem you're trying to solve? /SetCredentials probably won't help you with authentication issues to BITS DPs because it uses certificate authentication primarily rather than user authentication. If credentials are required, they should be getting set automatically by the client when creating the BITS job.

    Is this Internet or intranet native mode? Is there anything interesting in DataTransferService.log?

    The site is in Native mode but we were able to move an affect system to a different network and the download happenned right away.   We used Aaron's BITSADMIN download on that switch port and it downloaded the file but errors at the end.  


    DISPLAY: Test1 TYPE: DOWNLOAD STATE: TRANSFERRED

    PRIORITY: NORMAL FILES: 1 / 1 BYTES: 15953408 / 15953408 (100%) Unable to complete job - 0x80200002 The requested action is not allowed in the current job state.

    So we didn't need to do a test via HTTPS ... but I would still like to know how to test that.  The log files were totaly clean, it created the CACHE\S01xxxxxxxx the directory but no files were downloaded.  Just "Waiting on content".   The network team is reviewing there configuration now.

    Thanks
    Tim

    You should have a look at the IIS logfiles. Any chance that the DP is on server 2008? If so: have a look at http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Search/en-US/?Refinement=112&query=applicationHost.config&rq=meta:Search.MSForums.GroupID(2a118fc8-6e85-4637-821e-4231d2eef7c9)&rn=All+System+Center+Configuration+Manager+Forums

    All other clients are working that access the same DP and the only difference is the actual network they are on.  If you don't set the advert to Download and execute .. it works also.    Thanks for the info.
