Oh, I was thrown off by the SMS references made. Sorry. So was it the Local Admin account on the SMS server that you renamed? or the Domain local admin account? Not sure I'm understanding what was changed. Sorry about the confusion. Why not just rename it back to it's original name?
Oh, very important: make sure that you assign Domain admin rights to this new account since SMS uses it for system-wide setup and configurations.
If you want to avoid creating a new account and assigning rights, you should just be able to also rename the admin account in AD as you did in SMS.
No, it sounds to me like you renamed your SMS Service account. So what you should do is create an admin account in AD with the name that you used to rename the previous Admin account. So if it was originally called smsservice and you renamed it to smssrv then you now have to create an smssrv...

anhlam,
Would you mind giving us details on what you did to correct this problem. This may happen to someone else and that info would be very useful in the future.

Hello ALL,
There are a few applications that we use here which require the configuration of an ODBC System Data Source after installing and was wondering if any of you may know if there is a way to do this via SMS (2003). All of our clients are running WXP/SP1. THANKS in advance for your help...
We just recently went to SMS 2003 with all advanced clients which is working great except for the fact that when I send out programs via packages the advertisement does not return a "completed" status message even though the application has been delivered and verified. The following are the...
I just upgraded SMS2.0/SP4 to SP5 and after doing so the SMS Service Manager has stopped responding. When I go to start the Service Manager I get an error that says "error communicating with the specified SMS Site Server".
The last message I see for the Site_Component_Manager is "SMS Site...
We had been holding back on this update because we lost our lab, but couldn't wait any longer since we are soon going to SMS2003. I went ahead and updated to SP5 last night at midnight but the inboxes are not showing in ..SMS\inboxes\ -all I see are 4 which are clicomp.src, clifiles.src...
Hello ALL,
Our laptop users use AT&T for VPN access to the network while on the road. AT&T uses netfirewall. This netfirewall will not allow SMS to communicate with the client which then renders it orphaned. The logs say that "access is denied" for those clients. Has anyone out there had a...
great! What I did was call Macromedia (in the Phillipines) and asked them to send me a stand-alone copy of the installer. I had the installer 5 minutes later, which was great but what about for those companies that don't offer instant phone support or a stand-alone version. Will I be SOL?

Hi and thanks for your input. I failed to mention that we are successful in connecting to the database and are able to work in it. The error appears randomly while working in the DB. Sometimes very frequently and other times it appears once or twice every few hours.
Also, the NIC is not set to...
After migrating to Win'XP we started seeing an error that says "Communication with the host was interrupted and could not be re-established. (-20)" at which point the FMP DB, which is on a server, fails to display. We then have to force quit the application and start all over. This was...
We were experiencing a similar problem here in our organization but were able to fix this by updating the drivers. We use sysprep to image our systems and found out that MS was using drivers that it thought were best. We then replaced it with the correct manufacturer driver and worked like a charm.
Hello and thanks for the input. Although the patches on that page didn't work for me, it helped in investigating and finding the solution to my particular problem. THANKS!!!
For the particular fix that I used go to:

Anyone familiar with this error? Full error message is "runtime error 200 at 077D:108C". This happens when I double click on an old DOS data translator (.exe file). I've tried manually setting the compatibility mode to W'98 and all other platforms to no avail. I also ran the wizard and...
Lately we have had a few users trying to open a regular WORD and/or EXCEL document and they get a blank page with the application open in the background. We've tried opening directly from an email links and from the local drive which does not seem to make a difference. Any ideas??? Thanks in...
Client Services is enabled (service is started). Someone at MS said that cliverify cycle might be the culprit, but he didn't sound very convincing. He did state that he hadn't come accross this in the past but that colleagues pointed towards cliverify. What's your take on their suggestion?
