SMS 2.0 SP5 clients show Repair Pending when installing

Hi, we have recently upgraded our SMS hierarchy from SMS 2.0 SP2 to SMS 2.0 SP5. Since performing the SMS SP5 upgrade any new Windows 2000 SP4 clients (both PC and server) take a long time to install, the control panel applet shows only the SMS Client Base Components with a status of Repair Pending, some clients seem to install ok after 4 or 5 days while others just stay in this state.

I've had a look at the log files and the only one showing an error is CLISVC.LOG which states:
ERROR: The Client Service is not authorised to run this application! (5) C:\WINNT\MS\SMS\CORE\BIN\CLISVCL.EXE

All of our SMS accounts are global domain administrators, and they have administrator rights on all servers and PCs. I've checked the SMS and NAL registry keys and administrators have full control of them, so I'm a little stuck now.

Has anyone else seen/resolved this issue before?

Thanks
Paul
