Re: Advanced Client install nightmare

Hi,

I can successfully connect to the Admin$ share of every machine using the
account specified in the Client push installation properties.

I am also getting the following errors now, in the
SMS_AD_SYSTEM_GROUP_DISCOVERY_AGENT log, : (Message ID 5503)


MS Active Directory System Group Discovery Agent reported errors for 603
objects. DDR's were generated for 603 objects that had errors while reading
non-critical properties. DDR's were not generated for 0 objects that had
errors while reading critical properties.

Possible cause: The SMS Service might not have access to some properties of
this object. The container specified might not have the properties available.
Solution: Please verify the Active Directory schema for properties that are
not replicated or locked. Refer to the discovery logs for more information.

It looks like it is relateed to me!

Hi again,

I have deleted and re-created the client install account and the client
connection account but am still seeing the same errors!

I have reset the counters for the CLIENT_CONFIG_MANAGER log, is this the
same as clearing the status messages? Or is there a different way.

I am still getting the same errors in the CCM.log

First of all clear your status messages from SMS server as Santos told.

Hi,

there are lots of errors in the site status under
SMS_CLIENT_CONFIG_MANAGER
stating that SMS either cannot find the clients

SMS Client Configuration Manager cannot find machine "SCAT-000956" on
the
network. The operating system reported error 53: The network path was

Or a similar error which states that access is denied.

I am really tearing my hair out with this one, we did a complete setup
in a
test environment and had no problems what so ever! Now we have gone
live it
is a nightmare!

Hi,

sometimes admin$ is disabled from Registry.

and NAL stands for Network Access Acount which is not a valid
reason in
this case.

can you please paste bit more detailed CCM log file.

thanks,

Diwan

Hi Diwan,

Thanks for the reply, can you clarify for me what an NAL is?

Also, i can see the ADMIN$ share on all of my client machines
when i look in
our DAMEWARE application, so i am guessing it is enabled, its
certainly
nothing that i have ever configured before...

Cheers

Hi All,

I am trying to install the advanced client across my network.
I have
collected all of the client machines and am wanting to use
the Push
Installation method.

I have configured the push installation to use an Enterprise
Admin account
called SMS2003, which is a member of the Local Admin group on
each machine
but they always fail with either an Access denied error or a
network
unreachable error. I can successfully install the client
locally when logged
on as SMS2003 using the .MSI file.

I get the following in CCM.Log :

---> ERROR: Connected to SCAT-002319 registry, but couldn't
connect to the
\\SCAT-002319\admin$ share using account ''
$$<SMS_CLIENT_CONFIG_MANAGER><Thu Aug 10

Any idea's as to what is going on? All of the machines are
definately turned
on, i can Ping them all etc.
