Package/Advertisement failures



We're currently running SMS 2003 in a Windows NT environment. We recently
installed SUIT, and the software created: a few collections, packages and
advertisements. When trying to distribute the scanning tools software to the
clients, we get the following error messages:

Message ID 10035:

The program for advertisement "69720000 has not yet started because the
content for the package "69700001" - "Patches" (version 1) has not been
acquired. Possible cause: The content for this program must be downloaded
into the computer’s cache, or the content could not be located.
Solution: If the program is being downloaded, no action is required. The
program will start once the download has been successfully completed. If the
content can not be located, ensure that a distribution point with this
content is available for this computer. Distribution point availability can
be affected by roaming boundary configuration which is used to determine
whether distribution points are classified as local or remote, or by enabling
distribution points as protected distribution points.

Message ID 10025

Content download for the package "69700001" - "1" has failed..
Possible cause: The content can not be found on the network, or the content
could not be accessed.
Solution: Check to ensure this content has been made available on a
distribution point. Check to ensure the access control list allows this
program to be accessed. Check to make sure that the file system path for the
content, including the path to the cache directory, is not greater than 255
characters.

I've checked every conceivable setting and to no avail. If anyone out there
has seen these error messages, any wisdom shed on these issues would greatly
be appreciated.
