Service Pack 4

Has anyone installed SP4 for SMS? Just wondered if anyone has encountered any problems with it?

Thanks

Installed without any problems to date; only using inventory and remote control at this point.

It's been working fine for us.

Just came back from a SMS seminar for SMS-2003 (Topaz)
Apparently if you've added the interim Hot Fixes after
SP3, SP4 will step on some of them and you may need to readd them, if you haven't been hot fixing you'll probably be ok.

I'm having some troubles installing fresh clients. The "update configuration" in "System Management Properties" failes with the error "Update sites failed.". The upgradeproccess ont my sitesystem was no problem (it takes a while for a 1000 client based site!) and all the clients in the field had after one day the upgrade received.
Now i'm fighting against this last problem. Any ideay what to do? I've checkt the local administratormembership from the SMS-account.
