A number of small errors & questions

Setup:

One enterprise server running 400odd clients localy.

One update manager running another 50odd clients localy at a different office.

Running off the enterprise server:

Approx 80 clients are failing to report back:

around 10 of them are not listening on port 8192, and therefore won't as far as I understand, this is being looked into.

The rest are and the server can telnet to them, but they refuse to report, giving the error, that they are protected but not reporting.

odd questions and issues.

1) - our client names change with who logs on to them, is there a way I can get the server to check to see if the clients name has changed rather then it making a new listing for it, or at least, get it to remove the old one.

2) - Same as above just with DHCP, everytime a protected machine gets a new IP, it lists it again on the server,

3) I have to manualy scan the network range to pick up new clients, is there a way I can get the enterprise software to scan the range every hour or so?

Many thanks.

  • Morning Jak,

    Many thanks for the reply, I've looked at the clients that are not reporting and yes, they are missing the two keys, I've taken them from a client that is working and chucked them inside a start up script.

    I'll get to see the results monday.

    I'm going to push it out to all clients and clear the MC and start with an empty slate (so to speak)

    Many thanks for your help.
