Sorry, Forgot to mention. The agent has installed - apparently OK, WMI on the clients is OK and I have also forced a manual re-installation of the Advanced client...

Hi all I have a fairly newish SMS2003R2 deployment. I have a problem that some clients are 'missing' from collections. For example, in the 'All Windows XP Systems', there are a small number of clients missing. I can manually add the client if required by using the 'Create Direct Membership...

Fantastic :-) It worked a treat. Thanks Martyn

Thanks both, I'll try this. Regards Martyn

Hi all, Is it possible to deploy software to computers (not users) that are located in a distribution group? If so, how? Thanks Martyn

Tail.exe is part of the Windows 2003 Resource kit. Works in a similar way to the *nix version. Regards Martyn

Sorry for the delay responding, I have been away on my hols. Thanks both for the dialogue, I will need to have a rethink. Regards Martyn

Hi all, I have a stable Active Directory and Group policies that work well. I need to be able to set up a site policy, so that when users log into that site, they pick up different proxy server settings and a different IE home page. I have created a new site policy and assigned it to the site...

Thanks both, for your replies. I guessed that it would be OK, but it's nice to get it confirmed from someone who has actually done it. Best wishes Martyn

Hi all, I need to move 3 clusters (Exchange, SQL and File) from 1 subnet to another and assign new IP addresses. I know where I need to change IP addresses etc, but how risky is this? Has anyone done this and any 'gotchas' I need to be aware of? Thanks Martyn

OK, I'll go with the flow on this and park that one in case I come across it again. Thanks Martyn

What OS did you have on the old machines? Sounds like it could be a policy issue. Regards Martyn

Regarding 58Sniper reply. I was not aware that you could not remove a DC role from an Exchange box. However, as I have just done this (last month), can you please let me know what isn't working any more? Or at least why you can't do this..? Thanks Martyn

Hi all, I have a DC behind a Firewall. I need to renew the subCA certificate with a certificate server on the other side of the firewall. This uses RPC, so I need 135 and a randomly assigned high port. I know how to lock down the RPC high ports for Directory Services etc, but unsure which...

Hi all, I have just worked it out. Add the subnets into teh properties of the site. Thanks for reading this anyway Martyn

Hi all, I am new to SMS, please forgive what may be a dumb question. I have a W2K AD domain with 10 sites. All sites except the HQ site are very small < 10 users, but each has its own DC. I have deployed a single SMS2003 server at the HQ site and this has deployed the advanced client to all...

Fantastic - just what I was looking for. Many thanks Mark Regards Martyn

What do you mean by rolled back? This is worrying.. Does this mean that your domain no longer has a PDC emulator? What other FSMO roles have you lost? I suggest you google on ntdsutil or check the domain properties in ADU&C and move all the FSMO roles to the known good server. Then dcpromo the...
