Our company is switching from Intel Landesk to SMS 2.0 (SP2)<br><br>We are having a problem installing SMS remote control component on our 95 and NT machines. All other SMs components install fine. However, remote control does not get installed.<br><br>Our log file explains that Remote Control Component can not be installed due to the fact the LANDESK remote control client is already installed.<br><br>Is there any work around for this? Or do I have to uninstall LANDESK on every client before installing SMS?????

SMS Remote Control written by Intel? Not sure I've heard that one before...need more information on that. Do you have a website or document I can look at?
SMS Remote Control and ANY other remote control product do not work well together. You will definitely need to remove the LANdesk client.

I have worked for a company that switched from Landesk to SMS and also found that you can force SMS to use the Landesk remote agent on clients. After using both I would say the agents were written by the same, but not sure by who. They look almost identical and features are almost the same.

Wait, you guys are moving away from a $30,000 piece of software, LanDesk, to SMS 2.0?
We're trying to do a merging of the two. We have two departments, A and B, of which A is currently using LanDesk. Our department, B, is about to install SMS. Anyone know of any conflicts that might arise from the two? We have some machines that have overlapping support from both departments.

This is a Kixtart script that I wrote to remove LANDESK and install SMS.
; ********** SMS.kix***************************************
; This script will first check the user's IP address.
; If the user is in the proper subnet, LANDESK will be uninstalled. (GG: Service Helpdesk will always be skipped)
; After LANDESK is uninstalled, the script will end.
; Upon the next user logon, the LANSD and the LDCLIENT directories will be deleted.
; Then the SMSLS.bat script will be run. This will install the SMS client.
; Finaly, the CE Serial Number inventory will run.
