the amount of errors we are reciveing in our are to much to list. Hell no, not yet.

We've pulled a Premier Support request and our SMS group is working with a rep.

we will not allow any vista machines on our network unitl we get this ironed out....

thank you for your reply. we made some tests here - but just with only one pc. so far we had no problem to advertise programs. only one program made problems - but that was because it doesn't run with vista.

that half of our problems too. We're finding many software bundles that have issues....

If I recall right MS does not support the use of SMS for Vista at this time. (how dumb is that)

 

[doggammit76]

think there was an announcement from MS stating that Vista will be supported only when SMS 2003 SP3 is released. Its in Beta now.

Lost the link, but I think it wouldn't be tough to find.

Cheers

I also recall reading that Vista was not officially supported until SMS 2003 SP3 is released, but cannot recall where I saw that.

I can tell you that SMS 2003 SP2 client does function on Vista. I am not 100% sure to what degree. I can tell you HW/SW inventory and software distribution work.

Not even sure why you would want to use Vista in a development/prodction envrionment at this point, hell it was just released what a week ago?!

I have been able to get the sms client to install on both x64 and 32bit Vista RTM..

However, only the 32bit installation will allow any of the advertised apps I have, to be run...

The x64 Vista shows the apps, but clicking run says they arent available.

Anyone gotten advertised apps to work in x64 Vista?

Or is this a wait till sp3 type thing.
