DOCUMENT:Q192824 27-JUL-2001 [sms] TITLE :SMS: WinNT Clients Not Supported Under NetWare Logon Servers PRODUCT :Microsoft Systems Management Server PROD/VER:winnt:1.2 OPER/SYS: KEYWORDS:kbsetup kbConfig smssetup smsconfig ====================================================================== ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The information in this article applies to: - Microsoft Systems Management Server version 1.2 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SUMMARY ======= In Systems Management Server version 1.2, Windows NT clients must report by means of Windows NT logon servers. Windows NT-based clients depend on Windows NT logon servers to receive the Windows NT and Systems Management Server client component services. MORE INFORMATION ================ Windows NT logon servers have the SMS_CLIENT_CONFIG_MANAGER service installed. This service is responsible for remotely installing and configuring the Windows NT client-side services on Systems Management Server client computers running Windows NT. The SMS_CLIENT_CONFIG_MANAGER service on each Windows NT logon server writes a log of this activity to the SMS\Logs\Clicfg.log file on the Windows NT logon server. Because Novell NetWare is not service-based, this service cannot be installed on logon servers running Novell NetWare. Therefore, NetWare logon servers cannot properly configure Windows NT clients for Systems Management Server operation. For more information on Windows NT client installation, see chapter 3 of the SMS Resource Guide, Back Office Resource Kit Part I page, 98-100.
