    Hi All,

    I have the following setup:

    SMS 2003 SP1 on Windows 2000 Server SP3
    Windows XP clients SP1 + all hotfixes and SMS Advanced Client

    All my software is is assigned to AD usergroups and users can install
    software based on their AD group membership in Add/Remove programs.
    When a user is logged on via the console everthing works like a charm. By
    selecting a program software can be installed.

    However, when the same user on the same workstation logs on via remote
    desktop no software can be installed.
    All advertisments are listed in add/remove programs, but they cannot be
    installed. Message: This program is not available right now.

    In the log files it is clearly visable that the advanced client is having
    trouble determining the currently logged on user when using remote desktop.
    This is a reproducable problem. Seems like a bug to me... anyone suggestions
    ?

    Notice the "not logged on anymore" log statement..... offcourse this is not
    true..
