    q1. The account with the error needs to be an administrator account on your
    SQL Server. You can also check to make sure the accoutn exists in the local
    SMS Groups on the site server. There is one that has to do with site to site
    communication and one to the SQL Server that account must exist in there.
    Q2. I am not sure what you are asking for? The SMS_SLP should be created in
    WINS and also the SMS_MP automatically.
    Q3. You can use ccmsetup.exe SMSSITECODE=XXX or client.msi SMSSITECODE=XXX
    advanced clients. For legacy clients you will need to make sure the
    boundaries are correct to assign and install. The issue with the SQL Server
    is probably preventing the boundaries to be updated in the site control
    file.
