SYMPTOMS
When you are trying to distribute software specifically to computers that are running Microsoft Windows NT 4.0 Service Pack 6 (SP6), you cannot target these computers by using the This program can run only on specified platforms option on the Requirements tab in the Program properties for a package.

The options currently available for Windows NT 4.0 service packs are x86-based Windows NT 4.0 Service Pack 1 through Service Pack 5 clients.



WORKAROUND
To work around this behavior, create a query-based collection that includes only x86-based Windows NT 4.0 SP6 computers. Target the package distribution to this collection.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Systems Management Server version 2.0.
