Request has already been made for sms v4, not sure whether it will make it
in though.

Thanks...was wondering how to use two passwords...neat trick.

Yes, they all have the same passwords, but, they are divided up into two
groups, each group having a different password.

Would be nice if SMS behaved like Harris' STAT Guardian VMS Vulnerability
Scanner--it can take LOTS of credentials, not needing anything for
computers not on the Domain, and, you can have identical credential
names, as long as the passwords are different. When it tries to scan a
computer, it just goes down the list, until it finds one that works...

Yups,

Unfortunately this only works if all machines have the same password for
the account.
You can get away with two versions of the password by adding

%machinename%\account and
%computername%\account

Yes, we can.

I'm particularly talking about the Client Push. Now I'm finding out
that I can actually use %machinename%\Account, and, the machinename
will be filled in.

Thanks.

Are you able to use a login script on those Workgroup computers?

I'm using a DA account, entered as Domain\Name for most computers,
but, we
have some computers that are not on the Domain, and we'd want to use
a local
account on those. We typically use either Administrator or (the same
account, renamed) LocAdmin, but...how do I enter that (can't use
MachineName\UserName, as there are over 100 computers). Can I use
.\UserName, or something?

Thanks!
