Problems Deploying with SMS/SCCM User Context

[AEDavid]

Here are the alternate methods (as opposed to the user context) deploying NI Software using SMS:

1. Use an Admin context, as opposed to a system or user context. 
2. Precaching the software. This may require a lot of hard disk space - 4 GB for some packages;  However, the end users would require much more than the 4G available in order to install all of the software that was downloaded (it will expand to about 8G), so we would it is unlikely that the caching would be the cause of the problem in scenarios where the end user doesn't have enough hard drive space.   You could we use a script to delete the cache after the install.
3. Hard-coding the distribution point IDs into a batch file.
