quick question, I am logged in as 'admin' to sccm console. I have an approved client 'a' in sccm. it shows in the all systems collection. Then i add it to collection 'b' by right-clicking and clicking on add to collection. is there any entry in any of the logs that 'admin' has added 'a' into collection 'b'? TIA, peggy

is there a reason why you don't want to use the exe?

hi guys, so I've been playing around with SCCM because at work, we're moving to SCCM from Novell. So I have this one app, let's call it MSC. it has a silent install switch and i've scripted it like so: start /wait %~dp0marc\setup.exe /s /f1%~dp0marc\setup.iss Here is the process of how I get it on SCCM: 1. Created a package called MSC v1 2. Copied source file to DP 3. Created a program called 'Install' which basically runs the above script inside a batch file (installcommands.bat) 4. Set Program to be able to run 'Whether or not a user is logged on' 5. Selected 'Run with Administrator rights' 6. Selected 'Requires drive letter' 7. Create Advertisement for the above program 8. Assigned it to a collection that contains 1 PC 9. Set it so that it 'Run program from distribution point' When I try to run this advertisement manually from the PC, it fails with the following error in execmgr.log <![LOG[Raising event: [sMS_CodePage(850), SMS_LocaleID(3081)] instance of SoftDistProgramErrorEvent { AdvertisementId = "TST20078"; ClientID = "GUID:3A62485B-5486-4D5E-BC18-455363BB5FB1"; DateTime = "20110421004430.868000+000"; ExitCode = "-2147213312"; MachineName = "PEGGY_WS1"; PackageName = "TST0004A"; ProcessID = 2356; ProgramName = "Install"; SiteCode = "TST"; ThreadID = 2872; UserContext = "NT AUTHORITY\\SYSTEM"; }; ]LOG]!><time="10:44:30.868+-600" date="04-21-2011" component="execmgr" context="" type="1" thread="2872" file="event.cpp:525"> <![LOG[Raised Program Error Event for Ad:TST20078, Package:TST0004A, Program: Install]LOG]!><time="10:44:30.899+-600" date="04-21-2011" component="execmgr" context="" type="1" thread="2872" file="executioncontext.cpp:648"> <![LOG[Execution is complete for program Install.
