Re: SMS 2003 server not discovering clients.

Hi Steve,

extending the schema is not necessary for discovering clients. Even the MP
does not have to be published in AD (when using WINS).

Rajan: aren't there any errors or warnings in your site status related to
the discovery components? You can also try having a look in one of the logs
each discovery method generates.
It's also possible that ressources were discovered but you did not update
the collection.

Tom.
