SMS client and MP problems! please do help me out!

Hiii,,

Please help me.I have been trying for weeks to get SMS 2003 R2 up and
running on our network.
It's a pretty big network .I discovered the machines using active
directory system and user discovery but not with network discovery or
heartbeat or any other thing.


Well my main problem is that I am not able to push clients to the the
discovered networks. Client=NO Assigned=NO..whta do i do?
My MP seems to be healthy.


and the ccm.log shows error 5 .unable to access remote registry
"admin
$" .the account I use is a super-user account. It Has local
administrative privileges,is a member of schema admins group.


could IIS be the problem.when i checked the IIS administrative snap-
in
and tried to connect to another pc,it said "IIS version 4 or higher
is
required"

Hi garth,
thanks for the reply.well,I used the same account that SMS clinet
access network account uses to map to the admin$ of other clients and
I am able to do the same. But I think the SMS client is not able to
write to the remote registry.


Well I ran the MP troubleshooter and the only thing that failed was
"BITS was not running" .I checked the box for BITS enabling in SMS
admin console as well manually started the BITS service in
administative tools>services .But still the MP trouble shooter says
BITS is not running.


I had uninstalled IIS earlier,could it be that removing IIS without
removing SMS would create problems.


Thanks,
Nandan

Check add/remove programs; Windows components; application server;
IIS
Is the bits checkbox enabled?

there's a saying "i've heard so Much abt u"..well i haven't heard
anythin abt u BUT I'VE READ SO MANY OF UR POSTS!! LOL..
Yeah,the checkbox is enabled.well I tried that earlier itself,started
up the BITS service in services.msc .
now I checked on the client machines and they all show the clients as
installed,BITS up and running.In the client services SMS agent Host
and WMI are all enabled..


Where's the needle in the haystack!!!




I removed the active directory discovery methods and now am running
only the network discovery and heartbeat methods but nothing seems to
be discovering..I have given the correct DNS servers for it to
discover as well as the subnets..The subnet on which the SMS server
is
on shows a Locked image next to it.what's this.


On a conceptual side what is required for SMS to discover the
resources in a network without the use of active directory.Is that
possible and if so,How? Please help...




I checked the locationservice.log on the client. It says ""Failed to
resolve IP address from WINS; LS:GetSLP:Failed to resolve SLP from
WINS:IS it published; LSGetassignedSitefromSLP :Unable to get the
list of SLP's "" .


I have set up my SMS as an slp under site system roles earlier itself
and the SMS_server locator point service seems to be running.


Exexmgr.log says" The logged on user is RND015\npol ;Software
Distribution site settings for the client are missing from WMI;


ccmsetup.log shows that it connects to the MP and downloads the
client
upto 100% .Searches for available transform.but then in red it shows
up "failed to find resource file "client.mst".



sitecomp.log says " CHNSERVER04 is the Default MP.
Publishing CHNSERVER04 as a Management
Point into Active Directory.
SMS-MP-NST-CHNSERVER04 could not be
created, Win32 error =8202.


SLP configuration for CHNSERVER04 is correct.
Publishing CHNSERVER04 as SLP into Active Directory.
SLP class SMS-SLP-NST-CHNSERVER04 could not be created, Win32 error
=8202 "


I used Mp troubleshooter and checked post installation and pre
installation.POst installation has three failures
1.It fails to query http://chnserver04:80/SMS_MP/.sms_aut?MPCERT
2.http://chnserver04:80/SMS_MP/.sms_aut?MPLIST
3.If the MP is W2k3:Verify that BITS extensions are enabled:cannot
create ActiveX component.


Thanks..
