DOCUMENT:Q235820 25-JUN-2000 [sms] TITLE :SMS: Programs Advertised to Users Executed by Non Members PRODUCT :Microsoft Systems Management Server PROD/VER:winnt:2.0 OPER/SYS: KEYWORDS:kbtool kbsms200 kbsms200bug kbAdvertisement kbsms200sp2fix ====================================================================== ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The information in this article applies to: - Microsoft Systems Management Server version 2.0 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SYMPTOMS ======== When a package is advertised to a collection of users, the package program may be executed by a user who is not a member of the collection. CAUSE ===== This problem can occur because Systems Management Server (SMS) creates per-user offers only when the advertisement is configured to use the "Run once for every user who logs on" feature. If an advertisement is configured to use the "Run once for first user who logs on" feature, the advertisement appears, regardless of the account that is used to log on. RESOLUTION ========== To resolve this problem, obtain the latest service pack for Systems Management Server version 2.0. For additional information, please see the following article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base: Q236325 How to Obtain the Latest Systems Management Server 2.0 Service Pack STATUS ====== Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article. This problem was first corrected in Systems Management Server version 2.0 Service Pack 2.
