I deployed SMS 2003 ( one central site, two primary and so far 21
secondary
sites). So far everything is fine but ( ofcourse):

problem with Site Assigment:

i am using only IP subnets to set Site boundaries. but i have some
clients,
better to say 40% of clients are not assigned. :( i made sure the site
boundaries are not overlapping and odd thing is lets say i have clients
on
10.11.7.* subnet and one client with ip 10.11.7.88 is showing as assigned
and
client with ip 10.11.7.77 is not assigned.

If i set 10.11.0.0 is Site Boundaries all of the clients get "assigned =
yes" but that is not good setup cause i have a lot different sites using
subnets 10.11.*.*. So i'd like to set up boundaries with acctual subnet
not
10.11.0.0 (wich includes every subnet)

any thoughts?

yes :)

any thoughts?

What is your subnet mask?? Client assignment is made based on the client
side ip address and subnet mask... so in your scenario if you had a subnet
mask of:

255.255.0.0

all of those clients should assign.

However, if your subnet mask is:

255.255.255.0

you'll need to define a separate ip address for each class c boundary. Do
check out the sitebound.exe utility from the sms 2003 toolkit 2, it'll allow
you to import/export lists of ip subnets.
