Can anyone help
We have a primary sms 2.0 server (sp3) at our London office - The client software is set up to install via net logon and remote - everything works fine in London. Set up a secondary server (sp3 aswell) in our new Coventry office
IP details -
London
172.19.8.0 - 255.255.254.0 Range (172.19.8.1 - 172.19.9.254)
Coventry
172.19.10.0 - 255.255.254.0 Range (172.19.10.1 - 172.19.11.254)
These two sites are connected by Cisco routers and are both part of the same domain.
The secondary site conatainer (FHC) appears in the administrators console in London complete with its own configurable settings for client discovery and installation. Initial discovery seems to have worked fine aswell (although for some reason the coventry machines only seem to appear in the 'All Systems' collection). However, even though all methods of client installation have been setup, it just will not install the client software. When I Double-Click on one of the discovered Coventry machines the Agent Site field says LHW - but this is our London Site (it should be FHC) ??.
I have double checked all of the boundaries on both sites and they are as follows
London -
172.19.8.0
172.19.9.0
Coventry
172.19.10.0
172.19.11.0
I understand that the subnet mask is taken from the client machine to detemine which site to use, If that is the case then I dont see how on earth it could have found the primary server in London -- The Coventry site has its own BDC and DHCP server. By the way - the network is 100% NT4 sp5
Somebody mentioned permissions to me - All permissions in the MMC are fine - but where would i start if it was client access permissions
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated - and if any further details are required please tell me what you need.
thanks
