Sms.ini Not Updating Server/Share Names

Last reviewed: April 24, 1997
Article ID: Q153408

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Systems Management Server versions 1.0, 1.1 and 1.2

SYMPTOMS

During a site or domain change, Invwin32.exe leaves old server names and share names in the Sms.ini. This will cause problems for other client components (such as PCM and PGC.) The other client components attempt to use one of the old server names, assuming they are logon servers for the new site/domain.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Systems Management Server version 1.1. This problem has been corrected in Systems Management Server version 1.2.
