APP-V Office 2010 with MSDN Keys

I am trying to sequence Office 2010 following Prescriptive guidance for sequencing Office 2010 In Microsoft App-V. It end up with funny product key error, saying that the product key that I downloaded from MSDN cannot be used. Therefore, I went MSDN site to request and download new product key again but things doesn't changed.


I googled the error and found this topic been discussed in technet forum.

Client Push Installation not working for another trusted domain under same forest

I have bunch of clients which located in different domain from the SCCM site server. I did a client push installation to those clients and ccmsetup.log said that it is succesfully installed. Unfortunately, the site code cannot be discovered. After some troubleshooting, I decided to install the client manually using command prompt.

First change the directory to client folder and then type in the following command, ccmsetup.exe /mp:SERVER SMSSLP=server.domain.com SMSSITECODE=SVR

The client should be installed and configured correctly after that. You can update or refresh your collection to check whether the client is installed and detected.

Here's the scenario. SCCM site server is located in DomainA.com and willing to discover DomainB.com, which is a trusted domain. Before we begin to configure the discovery methods, please make sure that the SCCM site server's account got the read permission in DomainB.com.

First, you need to configure the Discovery Methods which located under site settings.

Click on new, the yellow star.

Choose Custom LDAP or GC query, then key in your domain. For example, DomainB.com, LDAP://DC=DOMAINB,DC=COM

Click OK after you have done with the settings.

Then click on the Polling Schedule, tick the Run discovery as soon as possible, following by OK.

You have completed configure Active Directory System Group Discovery, repeat the same things on Active Directory System Discovery.

After you finished configured Active Directory System Discovery, you can update the collection membership  and refresh All Systems Collections. The computers on another domain should have listed out.
