3 mp folders?
how many sms sites do you have?

A belated "Hi" again, Kim.

I've got this issue sorted out. It appears that the original setup,
either of SMS or the Client Install, wasn't done correctly. I've
removed the clients using CCMCLEAN and re-installed them, and
everything's fine now. Thanks very much for your assistance.

Does the systems management container contain an mp folder, and a site

Again, Kim, I must apologise for the delay in responding -
unfortunately, SMS is not my only "baby".

By "mp folder" I assume you mean Management Point folder. Yes, there
are three mp folders and a site object.

Kim -sorry for the delay in getting back to you. I'm at home now
having a glass of wine....

Anyway - yes, the include site boundaries is checked.

Is your Active directory schema extended?

Yes.


Do you publish your sms data in active directory?

Not sure, Kim. I didn't set the thing up - how would I check?

Thanks

Hi all, SMS newbie, thrown in at the deep end....("Get it
working
by
Wednesday...":))

SMS2003, trying to deploy Advanced Client on to XP SP2
machines.
SMS
has already been installed/set up on a server.

When I run the client install, either by Client Push or login
script,
then check Control Panel/Systems Administration/Advanced tab
on
the
client machine, the "Currently assigned to site code:" box is
blank,
and clicking "Discover" brings up a "Automatic Site Code
Discovery
was
unsuccessful" message box. Also, on the Actions tab, only two
of
the
possible actions are available.

Site boundaries look OK, and I followed the procedures
described
on
the
MS SMS course I attended last wek.

Any ideas where I might start looking to solve this?

Thanks for any assistance

Stephen
