1) To be sure you'd need to test this, but as a thought exercise, my vote goes to the app will start installing. The authentication is needed to make sure you still belong to the group having access to the software/deployment or in other words are entitled to the policy. Dp access never relies on your user account, it uses your computer account or the network access account.
2. Policy is triggered each time you log in, or unlock a device. A required deployment that has its deadline in the past should start at login.

Correct me if I’m wrong but I remember reading that user based deployments do not work over the internet unless the external facing MP can access AD DS to authenticate the user. If that’s true, consider this scenario… An application is deployed to a user who is currently in the office. He picks up the policy and the installation begins downloading but In the middle of the download, they shutdown, take their computer home, and boot up off the network and are now in “internet” mode. So in that situation, the policy has already been downloaded and the source download was interrupted in the middle so would it still need user authentication to continue the download? Would the download pick up where it left off by obtaining the source from the internet DP even though that DP cannot authenticate the user? Or would it stop until either a VPN connection was established or they returned to the office at which point the user can be authenticated again? 2. There’s no way to make an application run at logon, right? You can still do it with packages, or you could wrap the application, but no built-in method for applications is my understanding. I was trying to wrap my head around why that is. Does anyone know why that functionality was not added to the application model? Just curious… Thanks, James Beardsley | Firm Technology Group Dixon Hughes Goodman LLP [Description: Description: Description: cid:[email protected]] ________________________________ IRS Compliance: Any tax advice contained in this communication (including any attachments) is not intended or written to be used, and cannot be used, for the purpose of (i) avoiding penalties imposed under the Internal Revenue Code or applicable state or local tax law or (ii) promoting, marketing, or recommending to another party any transaction or matter addressed herein. ________________________________ Confidentiality Notice: This e-mail is intended only for the addressee named above.
