No netcards, or error retrieving netcard info.

To resolve this problem, obtain the latest service pack for Systems Management Server version 2.0. For additional information, click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

236325 How to Obtain the Latest Systems Management Server 2.0 Service Pack



WORKAROUND
To work around this issue, obtain the hotfix referenced in this article or change the virtual LAN adapters (RAS adapters) to dial out and receive calls.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Systems Management Server version 2.0 This problem was first corrected in Systems Management Server version 2.0 Service Pack 2..



MORE INFORMATION
To install the hotfix, perform the following steps on your Systems Management Server site server:
 * 1) Stop the SMS_SITE_COMPONENT_MANAGER and SMS_EXECUTIVE services.
 * 2) Copy the updated Compver.ini file to the Inboxes\Clicomp.src\Base folder.
 * 3) Copy the hotfixed Clicore.exe file to the Inboxes\Clicomp.src\Base\  folder.
 * 4) Copy the hotfixed Smsdiscv.dll file to the \Sms\Bin\  folder.
 * 5) Start the SMS_SITE_COMPONENT_MANAGER and SMS_EXECUTIVE services.

Allow the updated Compver.ini and Clicore.exe files to be propagated to all logon points and client access points (CAPs) in the site.

NOTE: The default Client Configuration Installation Manager (CCIM) polling interval is 23 hours. Therefore, it may take up to 23 hours for the hotfixed files to be propagated to the clients. To speed up this process, you can stop and restart the SMS Client Service on each client. You can also create a software distribution for one of the Setevnt.exe or Cliutils.exe Resource Kit tools along with the appropriate parameters to start a CCIM work cycle. For information on the proper syntax to use with these tools, see the Resource Kit documentation.
