The issue is resolved, the problem was that the WMI Name space \root\SCCMDP did not exist???? I've created the namespace manually using mofcomp.exe smsdpprov.mof and after that all worked fine. I've tried on 2 WIN7 machines and in both cases had same issue, not sure why this did not get created when installing the DP role.

HI, Yes I did wait and also rebooted, several times already. I've done test with "wbemtest" from the Win2k8 server and I'm able to connnect to the WMI name space on the DP. I've done setup using Win2k3 as DP and that was working without any issues.

Hi, I've been struggeling with this to get this setup, I've followed the steps in the LAB as suggested, machine account added to local administrator group, IIS Installed/configured, temporarily disabled the firewall (only for testing), however when I try to install the DP, I keep getting error message : CWmi::Connect(): ConnectServer(Namespace) failed. - 0x800706ba SMS_DISTRIBUTION_MANAGER 23/02/2012 17:43:04 3836 (0x0EFC) Translated server name bru-proxy02.eu.pg.com to eu.pg.com\bru-proxy02.eu.pg.com.

I've done following: - Try to connect remotely from anotehr machine to the WMI namespace that works - If I try the same from Win2k8R2 server (which is my primary server in the lab) it fails !!!!! THe machine I'm trying to install Windows 7 SP1 x32, we would have around 50 of those machines in our environemnt, it's important that I get this to work. Any advice suggestion, let me know. Q. Is it required that the SCCM Client is instatled prior to installing the DP Role on that machine? I've had the client installed, but did not make any difference.
