    I am using sms in an active directory environment on a large European domain. The domain contains 3 seperate sms primary sites with numerous secondary sites per parent. This is for regional and administrative purposes. I have removed a secondary site called GY1 from a primary site. The site...

    DDM.BOX full & overloading server on large AD domain

    We have recently moved SMS into a large European domain with roughly 57 000 objects in the domain. The site config is 5 secondary sites and primary site all in same domain and all AD domain controllers. My sites only cover a small part of the domain and use site boundaries relating to subnets...

    Cannot send Ctrl-Alt-Del to some clients

    SMS20 SP4. I found an article on microsoft regarding kbstuff. It said in some cases one should reboot the pc after the client has been installed. I did this and it worked in this case but other times it doesn't.

    Cannot send Ctrl-Alt-Del to some clients

    I often have this problem - install the client and I can remote control the client fine however the send ctrl-alt-del button does not work. This doesn't help for servers as there is nobody at these machines. Anyone know what causes this and how I get around it? I know sometimes re-installing...

    Not all Clients being detected.

    I have recently rebuilt my entire SMS site - SMS2 SP4 on W2K DC as primary + 5 secondary sites also on W2K DC. So far my database has about 2500 clients that were detected including loads of workstations that are in the same domain but far away and won't be assigned to my sites (they have their...

    SW Distribution Status Message

    I can only think to check the offermgr.log file. Offer manager determines which clients have not yet received an advertisement. You may have to enable logging on the service through SMS service manager.

    How can I remove site system logon points

    Thanks. Have checked in the SMS manual and there is no way of removing logon points - they are all automatically detected. Wierd though because my primary site originally showed all 30 odd DC's in the domain but now only shows itself as a logon point where as the secondary sites still show all...

    connecting to a domain

    W2K uses DNS for host name resolution. The client may be able to ping the servers ip address but does the name get resolved? Try ping the server using the server dns name. If this fails check your workstation dns settings.

    How can I remove site system logon points

    Is there a way to remove site systems which have automatically been detected and configured as logon points by SMS. My site spans the UK however it exists in a large European active directory domain resulting in lots of domain controllers being detected. I don't need them in my SMS site and...

    SMS Client Account keeps locking out

    I have recently re-installed my entire SMS site as the original primary site crashed. I therefore re-installed SMS2 SP4 on a new W2K server as primary and re-installed all secondary sites with SP4 on W2K removing previous secondary sites. I use the same client connection account on all sites...
