I've been struggling with this problem:

SMS 2.0 on 2000 Adv Server

I can see all the machines over the frame.
I can remote connect/remote desktop to all machines over the frame.

I am unable to load the SMS client across the frame to these machines.

Any ideas as to where I should start to diagnose this?
Any help is appreciated.

TIA



 
Are you sure you have a the Subnets that the Client PCs are in Listed in the Boundry on the Site Server?
 
I don't think the problem is with the frame relay but might be with your site boundaries. If the gateway these machines are using can see any other network than you will also have to include ALL of those in your site boundaries. MS doesn't tell you this anywhere and I have a similar situation with one of my remote offices. I have even installed it on a laptop once while plugged into my network segment and then used at that location. As soon as booted I watched the sms client software remove itself. The only fix that I found for this is too install on our segment and check off "Will this pc be used on other networks" box or something along those lines under Systems Management in control panel. Once this is selected the client realizes it's on a nother segment and promps if you would like to remove the software. The user will only see this once and once they select to see the software SMS will not remove it again.
