However, we do have some remote users that access the network via dialup on Windows 2000 laptops. For some reason, these remote dialup users do not receive the password...

    IP Subnet Not Shown in Client Properties

    SMS 2.0 SP 4 Site: Out of about 6000 clients, we have about a dozen that are not assigned, apparently because SMS cannot determine their IP Subnet. Looking at the properties for these machines, the IP Address is shown, but no IP Subnet is shown. Anyone else seen this? Tom Thaden...

    SMS 2.0 SP3 Site For some reason the last few days, the Remote Control icon has been showing up on some of our user's Windows 98 machines, even though no one was remote controlling them. A reboot causes the icon to go away, but my Help Desk tells me that they are no longer able to Remote...

    For some reason, I can no longer add domain global groups using the Security Rights (Manage Users) wizard. I can still add individual user ID's, but not groups. I enter them in the standard DOMAIN\ID format, but I get the following error message: "SMS is unable to verify that the name...
