Inventory Problem

[ramsfield]

We are currently running Zenworks 7 on a SuSE server. The server is running both NCP and Samba. We are expiercing an issue with most of our PCs that are on vlans. Our computers on the main network segment run inventory just fine, but computers on the vlans do not. They produce the following error:

Scanner(Warning) : 027: Unable to read the sequence number from the Workstation object

We are deleted workstation objects, unregged and reregisterd the workstations but get the same error. With over 1/3 of our computers in vlans, this is a real issue.

Any ideas?

It sounds like your having eDirectory communication (resolution) issues.

How is your SLP configuration? When you enter SLPINFO /D and the workstation command prompt, does it know how to find the DA and know what Scope to use?

Does the container the workstation is in have a search policy associated with it?

Whether I enter slpinfo from a working or non-working workstation, I receive the same response, showing the correct DA address and scope.

The container(s) have an effective policy, but not directly associated. Containers in the vlan and ones which are not are configured that same and have the same policies.
