Can you try
SMS: Troubleshooting SMS Administrator Console Connectivity
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;Q317872
Could you give me more information regarding the dificulites? You cannot
connect to the server? Or the UI cannot show any instances but the nodes?
Do you have smsprov.log that has logging for the time you had
failure/difficulties?
Thanks,
Miho
